The only one that Ive ever found to be any good is wynns EDT. Its cheap too unlike many of these magical treatments

on the other hand, some mineral or semi synthetic low ash 2-stroke oil at a ratio of about 200:1 (fuel:oil) is pretty good, it increases lubrication and reduces engine noise

Agreed that is a good cost effective additive with good benefits.

winns edt suposedly stops seal shrinkage as above. the problem is the diesel in nz is like russian roulette if you get to much hydrogen in your diesel you end up with a seeazed injector pump, and longtherm problems it will root your injector nozzle prematurely. (google ulsd-diesel problems) for further info as to how and why. I personaly use chemtech as all my diesel are euro diesel and my hilux gets wmo over summer to swell the seals up good .
