Diesel Octane Booster

Millers oil have developed a new diesel +4 RON octane booster which has shown some amazing initial test results!

On a Pug Turbo Diesel which had covered 120,000miles it made and extra 12% power Raising it from 100HP to 112HP! What’s more it also increased fuel economy by 5-7%

It’s relatively cheap too as one bottle treats 500 litres of fuel at £12.90 a bottle! It comes with a very easy to use measuring compartment which you just pump full and add 1 shot to 50 litres of Diesel!

I am getting a Vito van very soon for work/towing my racecar and as soon as it turns up i am going to do some dyno testing to see what difference it makes to that!

They have given me 1 bottle to try out which you are welcome to pop buy the workshop and try a shot of

Sorry was fed false info! It increases theCETANE rating by 4 points(basically rates how well diesel ignites)! Its the Diesel equivalent to Ron! But obviously Ron is Petrols ability to resist detonation and Diesels cannot detonate as they have no spark plugs

I have placed an order for 20 bottles and they should be with me next week! You are still welcome to try a shot before you buy though!

It wouldnt be advisable!

I dont think it would do that much harm and it would probably do some good as an additive that helps ignition can only help, but i have no idea how it would effect sparkplugs as its obviously tested on engines without!

But personally i would be a little reluctant to test it on a £15K car!

Could put it on the Rollers for a bit of a laugh If its making 130 then i wouldnt be surprised if it pushes 140 if the stuffs as good as Millers claim it is!

I had a diesel Merc Vito 112CDI and i managed to tow a 2.5Ton Ifor Williams trailer fully loaded at 100MPH in that on a private road of course

P.s i am looking for another one at the moment if anybody knows of any! Must be a 112 though!

I did get carried away once with 2 ton of scalping on it(re-doing my mums driveway), got a tank slapper, spun it and went backwards down an embankment, trailer flipped over but van was fine except for a slight dent on the front wing where i hit a tree! Calmed down a bit since then though luckily!
