Hello members, resurrecting an old thread here almost after 3 and half years.
I have a Tigor XT Diesel, it has been used for 50k odd kilometers and completes 3 years in a few days. I intend to use fuel additive with motive of system cleaning as a proactive measure for keeping the Injectors clean as I do a lot of long runs to rural places in Maharashtra and once in a time in few parts of Karnataka where fuel quality can really not be trusted. I have really no idea about fuel additive and the more I am reading about it on forums the more confusing they are getting. So listing a few queries, it would be great if I can get guided on this.
The Tigor has no issues as such, i.e. no black smoke, no knocking, only thing felt is the engine sound(harsh growl) has increased at higher rpms, I guess this is an effect of aeging? Also the ride has got a little less spirited than initial 30k kms, but nothing drastic, assuming this also might me due to aeging. Also I had got the EGR cleaning(machine one) done at 38k km as car was throwing out black smoke then, and since has been resolved.
1- what fuel additive/system cleaner to use, for my revotorq 1.05 which is essentially a CRDI
2- will there be any harm to the fuel injectors, common rail, engine, due to use of additives, in using in the long run, as I intend to keep my ride for a really long time(first ride with my hard earned money
)
3- owners manual doesnt mention anywhere against using additive in fuel, (although advices against additive in coolant) so it should not be a problem right? Especially warranty concern?
4- also intend to use a petrol Fuel Additive for my K10(50000 km 4year old) and Royal Enfield Classic 350(29000km 8 year old)
Kindly advise, Thank You in advance.
