hi all , recently i was thinking how fuel is pure sh#t lately being a mecanic i notice in fuel filters alot that the diesel isnt even like diesel its clear and not diesel like at all dont even smell like diesel what are they putting in the garage tanks lately??? but anyway long story short we get lots of injector problems, pump problems in the comon rail fuel systems after talking to few other mecanics every1 was saying it down to shit quality diesel , was talking to the diesel pump mecanic who i got my new svc (suction control valve ) for my 05 almera 2.2dci he said to add fully syn 2stroke oil to the diesel on fill up im useing 500mls to about 25ltrs and what a difference it makes fuel lasts longer better performance and engine runs way smoother unreal difference :biggrin: any1 else want to give a try and let me know or has any1 been doing this already ?????
 
The problem of diesel is the moisture content. In stead of 2T, you should put a auto-drain water separator in the fuel line in stead of hoping the diesel filter to do the job. Also check the fuel tank everytime you service your car. You can try putting 2T of cause but I had 2 genuine fuel pump for petrol car failed prematurely because of adding 2T in the fuel tank at the ratio of around 200:1 or 250ml for 50L (full tank 60L). I don't mind to try if diesel pump can be replaced by Walbro which proven to me that it will work with 2T and few times cheaper.

FYI, water that under pressure can wear out parts very fast. If you put enough pressure, it can cut metal better than CNC machine or milling machine.
 
thanks for the info there must look into 1 of those autodrain systems , never thought that 2t would do damage to fuel system when its used in injection and carb petrol engines as a form of lube
