Bibs 11,383 Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Asking for a friend, not something I'm considering for any of my cars but... Does anyone have any experience of these systems, either the fuel additives such as Forte or more specifically, the solvent based ones such as Terraclean or HHO (Hydrogen) based ones such as FlexFuel. Any good, is the science sound or are they snake oil?

mdw 282 Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 I use forte in my Mr2 Mk3 as it had been used at all previous services since 20k miles by PO. The 1zz engine in the mk3 is well known for blocked oil holes in the pistons leading to damage. At 90k it shows no sign of using oil. However the other Mk3 we had also didnt use oil at 70k and had probabaly never had forte used in it. So it could just be a load of tosh or not. Not a lot of help am I !!!! Oh and it DIDNT start pissing oil out of every gasket like some people say it will. I supose if you have a stuffed engine and nothing to lose its worth a punt. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can certainly remember him trying to flog it through old Wheeler Dealer episodes in the past. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
