The VOSA point Cossie Sean made is an important one!

As the two stroke will turn the fuel red, if VOSA dip your tank they will try and "Do" you for running red (tax exempt non road) diesel.

Best keep your bottles of two stroke in the car as evidence even if they are empty.

Still a risk though as I bet they won't believe you and seize your car, especially a 4x4 .

I can't imagine 500ml of two stroke in a 70litre tank would turn it red?

Most of the cheap mineral oils are red. I've never had any issue with diesel turning red anyway.

I use it in my discovery along with veg oil makes the engine a bit smoother and a fair bit quieter!

ive been using it for atleast 5 years in our cars and recovery trucks including my 2.4 transit mk7 recovery

its quieter smokes less less noisey better mgp on a run

I feel safer as its all lubricated, better burn means cleaner engine carbon build up etc, injectors will be cleaner so therefore not going out of programmed tolerance.


I put 300ml to a tank of diesel carlube redstuff I use, don't use the cheapy green,` if your car has a dpf use fully synthetic 2 stroke
