forte is the only stuff i will use as its the only stuff ive had success with and ive used most brands, the chemical makeup of most others is far too (worryingly) similar to paint stripper!

that actually works
better still 200ml of 2 stroke with everytank of diesel works well and can actually increase mpg and power, james at msd tried it with his bmw and reckons he saw a difference
