Re: Fuel system decarboniser in wheeler dealers tonight

I doubt whether this is cost effective. Can anyone enlighten me as to the cost?

Bardahl have a product which cleans the fuel system most effectively, and the E10 Fuel improver increases fuel economy by around 10% and reduces CO2, CO, NOX etc by approximately 25%.

I hope you find some suitably poor oil for the running in :lol:

Re: Exhaust Heat Wrap

I have just wrapped my Europa exhaust. Previously wrapped the exhaust on a race car. I recently purchased the wrap from a marine supplier - it is cheaper than from a motorsport supplier. The job is pretty simple.
