    Just want to hear your advice with regards to mitsubishi Diesel injection cleaner additive?

    Effective ba? Dami ko rin nakita sa mall na mga diesel additive.

    Sabi raw, increase HP, cleans sombustion, cleans injectors, etc...

    OK ba gamitin, what brands? :wink:

    In my experience with my Strada mukhang ok siya. :D Since it's recommended by Mitsu then it's best for my Mitsu ride. Alam ko it only cleans the injectors. Though most diesel brands already claims this line in their diesel fuels.

    load up with 2-3% blend Biodiesel everytime you fill up. It will have the same, if not better and long lasting effect.

    Has anyone tried the japan made PxBio diesel and gasoline additive? Its supposed to cost 55 pesos per 5 ml with one ml added per 10 liters of fuel. Its supposed to clean up the engine and remove excess water. I have a friend who tried it in his diesel fortuner and claims to have had a 30% improvement in fuel consumption.

    holy kamote!! 55 petot per 5 ml? That's 11,000 petot per liter?! local biodiesel sells for only P120/liter max na yata yun. bili ka na lang ng local biodiesel, prepreho lang epek nyan. ;)

    the problem with biodiesel is that they usually produce lower heat. it usually prevents the diesel particulate filter from heating up enough to burn the particles it collects. That's why BMW does not recommend BIODIESEL for their diesel cars.

    Dear Sirs:

    Just to clear things up, the process of making bio-diesel removes soaps and glycerin from the bio-oil, which are responsible for the gelling (sebo) during cold weather.

    Therefore, unlike straight vegetable oils (SVO) bio-diesels do NOT gel, which in fact was the main reason for processing them into bio-diesel in the 1st place.

    Surprisingly, in Germany, there are many stations selling bio-diesel (much more than here in the Philippines).

    As long as they meet the required fuel standards, there should be no barrier to their use in any model diesel vehicle.

    Best Regards,

    Dusky Lim

    Helow mga sirs!
    Newbie lang po sa tsikot. Pwede po makisali sa tread nato? interesting po kc.

    have anyone heared of using "ferrocene" as fuel additive?

    I'm planning kc of using this chemical for my 2.5L TDIC Pajero but were not sure of the possible effects on small automotive engines. baka may naka gamit na po sa inyo, pls share any results either positive or negative.

    Actually we are using this chemical on marine diesel engines (as big as 24000bhp output) for almost 6 yrs and d results were very satisfactory, in terms of lessening engine carbon deposits, oil contamination and engine wear.

    According to the instruction manual of this additive the following are the benefits of using this chemical:

    1.decrease in exhaust temperature
    2.decrease in adhesive carbon to exhaust valve, injector nozzle, piston ring and crown
    3.decrease in smoke Bosch number from exhaust pipe
    4.decrease in rate wear of piston ring and cylinder liner
    5.decrease in dirt deposits in turbocharger turbine blades
    6.decrease in lube oil carbon contamination
    7.ensures complete burnout of carbon and hydrocarbon

    this are some of the chemical specifications:

    Chemical name: "ferrocene" Dicyclopentadienyliron
    Chemical formula: (C5H5)2Fe
    appearance: orange crystalline solid
    application: combustion catalyst
    CAS No. 102-54-5

    also, according to the instruction manual, this chemical is should be mixed with fuel oil at 25ppm concentration in order to attain maximum effectiveness.. On board, we are mixing 1kg of ferrocene into 40 MT of fuel oil..

    given the SG of diesel is 0.8796
    40MT of diesel is 45500 ltrs
    1000grams of ferrocene into 45500 ltrs of diesel oil
    gives 0.02 grams of ferrocene/liter of diesel
    which in the case of my pajero fuel tank of 92 liters capacity, in order for me to attain 25ppm effective concentration,
    I only need to mix 1.8 grams of ferrocene per 1 full tank / 92 liters of my pajero.

    1.8 grams per 92 liters of diesel oil, sulit po dba?!?

    plus pa the benefits stipulated on the manual for using this chemical wich is listed above. sulit na sulit!!!

    Anyway, hindi pa po ako nakagamit nito personally because on board pa po ako ngayon. I'll keep you informed regarding the results positive man or negative once i used this chemical/fuel additive on my own ride.

    Any feedbacks, appreciated po.
    More horsepower mga sirs!!!
    God bless us all.

    Sir Eugene:

    From the name you quoted it's an Organo-Metallic compound.

    Organo-metallics are entirely man-made synthetic materials - they have analogues in natures.

    The organic portion is a cyclic (ring shaped) hydrocarbon with 5 carbon atoms in a ring surrounded hydrogen and attached to the iron (Fe).

    From the quoted concentrations required it is a very economical additive.

    We will await your evaluation with great anticipation.
