Technical Petrol additives.

[Adam1984]

On my last fill up I used normal E10 fuel from Go Forecourt.

I have now just picked up this additive from Halfords to see if it improves anything. If I put this into a new fill up tank, is it worth sticking it in with normal E10 again but from another petrol station. Or can this also be used with E5 Super Unleaded?

Thanks.

Run the car till it’s almost empty or you’ll just dilute the additive and reduce its ‘claimed’ benefits

Well on the bottle instructions it says add to a full tank?

Also shall I just get standard unleaded and use this or super unleaded which has additives already in?

Yes, add to a full tank but let it run down, rather than ‘topping it up’. Other additives already in petroleum will have a negligible effect to the additive

So my tank now has about 100 miles left. Quarter left. So recommend use this to fill up with Normal Unleaded or Super then?

The additive, unless specified on the bottle, should be able to use with any current fuel
Just don’t put lead replacement addative in!
