Decarbonising diesels

[The Raven]

What’s everyone’s thoughts on all the various magical elixirs for decarbonising modern diesels (specifically CRD)?

I need to get a new vehicle since the brand new company 4X4 got yanked out from under me. So, I’m considering if decarbonising is worthwhile for any used vehicle I may get.

Do you have a preferred method/mixture?

I’ve alway wondered if it would be better to dump the contents in the tank so it has a longer soak time than a short in/out the engine.

Dunno, I didnt spend the millions in R&D. I use as directed.

Fair enough, but the sellers don’t take responsibility either

KFC dont take responsibility for fat fuckers either......
They do however advise on calorific content, and from there its your choice.

Pull the intake off and clean it manually.

I realised my suggestion was silly. Adding the decarb treatment to the tank would do nothing for the intake on diesel

I looked into that and it would be quite an involved task so I went for option 2: LiquiMoly treatment used as directed.

It did the job well but using my little endoscope camera I can still see some carbon build-up way back in the manifold. Suffice to say the vehicle feels a bit smoother/powerful...but that could be the placebo effect.

My choice is to generally avoid KFC
