Someone on another forum I am on is pushing this stuff http://fueldoctors.com.au/
![]() I am skeptical anyway but does anyone know if this company is related to the Fuel Doctor that was pushing this scam product: ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjsdXvZz6IM https://www.caranddriver.com/news/fu...nt-work-at-all and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKP3W42wxD0 Shades of Peter Brock's Polariser. The logo and print looks very similar but it seems like they probably are unrelated entities.

Hmm this suggests the additive is a Castrol pruduct; if it is it should be OK https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Castrol-....c100011.m1850
Ditto: https://www.sctruckspares.com.au/cc5...doctor-5l.html But why is some sold without the Castrol label?

I am starting to think the scam gizzmo was trying to ride on the coattails of the additive product by using the same name and colours and similar print and logo etc.

Instead of this crap if you are really concerned about your fuel just pay the full pump price for premium 98RON.
Its already got all the additives and octane boosters etc in it!!! Personally i like to run E10 (Cheapest) or maybe sometimes proper 95RON fuel cos they're cheaper than 98 and i only go cruising/thrashing on weekends anyways!!! |

I do use 98 RON and wasn't really intending using it; I was just curious about it and especially interested if it was from the same company as the electronic device.
