I have seen on my own diesel engine good results from Wurth diesel injector clean. I didn't notice too much difference to fuel consumption but the heavy black smoke cleared up

good grief, thats the only time Ive heard good response about a Wurth product, our engineering shop only used Wurth products for a very short time as they were shite, worst were drills, taps, cutting oil, linishing belts, grinding wheels etc

I run Wynns edt in my truck every fill and it makes a huge difference, keeps all the injector seals lubricated and healthy, notice the difference if I miss a tank or two

It's one of those things you should chuck in each service as well. If you just do it once off you won't really notice anything, but you do every service and it will help prevent blockages, seals leaking etc.
At work we put Injector clean into all vehicles except lease vehicles as they won't pay for it . generally its the lease vehicles that have problems first with leaking injector seals/blocked injectors etc

Tank on a car of mine was OE foam filled. Reacted with the fuel turning all the foam into a melted sticky sludge completely gumming up fuel-injection pump, filters, fuel lines, injectors.

you need a additive at all times if you dont want seals shrinking and pump wearing its part kaputt. google ulsdproblems to see why you need a addittive at all times in your fuel. winns edt or, chemtech for just wear protection

GD -My view is that once most folk think to use the stuff its too late. I've had good results using the stuff but equal number of times it all had to get pulled out and cleaned manually

I used Moreys in my Prado for years. Started using in my 08 Navara and it started to rattle under load. Stopped using it and it went away.

You have to be careful what you put in those common rail diesel engines. There is injector cleaners on the market just for them.

we use wurth at work but i think its over priced shit apart from the diesel injector cleaner. use it in my bighorn all the time as it used to blow alot of black smoke when towing my stockcar. run the cleaner now and you would think its a new engine

Intrade, I have read articles about mixing two-stroke oil into the diesel at about 1:200 to 1:300 ratio to achieve fuel system wear protection and better economy. What is your opinion on this! Thanks.

I found the same thing with ProMa's MBL8 (!). Great on bearings and things, but it eats uni's!
