Not in the oil it doesn't and he is saying this product works in both oil and gas???

I thought exactly the same thing till i read the entire add including the feedback.

Adding unleaded to diesel also gives more economy and performance. Truck drivers have been doing this for years. Getting the mix right is absolutly critical. Its very easy to destroy a diesel engine doing this.

In places that have cold winters (like siberia), people add 30-50% unleaded to diesel, and vehicle owners manuals say this is OK.

Hah! The mighty hiclone. Too right. The only bad thing I could say about opposite lock is that they sell these things, gotta lose a few credibility points!

Strange though, back when i was into modified cars these things were a total laughing stock yet there are actually some folks in the 4wd circle that believe they actually work.

And as for the ebay add, :D Havnt had a laugh like that in a while. The good ol mystery bottle. Would you poor metho/turps/ammonia or whatever the hell that is in your tank? Ill pass! Im almost tempted to pay the $2.95 and then leave him feedback saying what the product is, I must say I am intrigued :D

OH hiclones...

I got into a little argument with one of my old mans mates who is a bit of a douche. He is a real tight bugger but I think he had made a few calls to a hiclone distributor and was absolutely sold, he wanted to buy one for his turbo diesel MK shorty..

I asked him where he was told to put it and he starts telling me the guy on the phone said they were the best thing ever, save heaps of fuel. I asked him again where he was going to put it and he tells me that the fellow on the other end of the phone said to get the best benefit you really should fit 2, one before the turbo and one after the turbo. ( how much $$$ would that be ??). I said yeah they'll both help, loads.. <_<

I just roflmao :D :D :D

silly billy...

He went and bought them to...

How'd they go? Have they paid for themselves yet? When they do, perhaps he should get a couple more fitted. I'm sure OL would agree :lol:
