Before i left i hit the upper intake with some 3 Bond engine conditioner, performed a quick oil/filter change (15/40 Valvoline engine armour, Ryco z9) & fitted a new o2 sensor. From 65lt of ulp91, it travelled 800km, fuel consumption combined it did 8.1lt/100km, hwy 6.7lt/100km - from a engine with 314,xxx kays on it! I was driving to the speed limits & only giving it some when overtaking, i did notice idle was smoother after the u/c intake clean & it appears it also improved my fuel usage also which is why i wanted to try it. I'm happy Thanks to The Showstopper for the heads up on 3 Bond engine conditioner! cheers, Maka
