Ideally,
Unnecessary roaring sound from exhaust.
Acceleration that causes neck injury.
Top speed of over 200mph.

Or if not available, a product that's worth the £5 in some way.

used it in my valver, and my merc seemed to do nothing....

Used the forte stuff and got loads of black crap out the back.... it may do something but i didnt notice any change....

Also tried the STP stuff and that did nothing too....

Redex, you can pour into cylinders leave for as long as you like cleans tops of pistons an might clean rings. I know when you start up smoke like a destroyer comes out of exhaust ,a good thrash helps espesh if your doin a lot of town drivin.

years ago you got it free at garages.......one squirt with every gallon ,at 5 shillin a gallon (oh yes)..... :lol: :lol:

does stuff all. Forte is good at de-gumming injectors, and they have a range of different more specific products, where redex seems to claim to do loads of things in one bottle. a good thrashing is the best way to clear out an otherwise health engine. if it's really gummed up and stays like it, there's another issue
