But I do suggest to try it if you have a hard idle.


I was serious, I've sent off for some. Mine has done over 100,000 miles, mainly on supermarket petrol, and I have heard great things of BG44K, like I said, everyone who has tried it says it is brilliant, but at nearly £20 a can, it is expensive to just pour in on the off chance it will do something. (But if I had just spent £20 on magic fluid, likely I'd notice a difference too ;) )

Trouble is, all that carbon will drop off and end up in the catalyst :S

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

The ECU flicks the EGR open for a moment to check for a change in manifold pressure which indicates that its working, if the EGR is sticky then you will get more of a dip but its not really an issue.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

As a follow up, I traded my cow for a tin of magic fluid (BG44k)

I excitedly put half of it in, (as it does 75 litres, and I've only got about 20) and went for a run @3500 rpm for 25 miles.

Made no difference whatsoever :(

I want my cow back :)

That's unfortunate Facade. Magic stuff isn't cheap!

Too bad
But why not according to the instructions?
Full gas tank with a full bottle.
For me it did wonders.
