Didnt use it for 2 reasons. Fits is that after calling the guy he couldnt tell me where the nearest distributer to me was. He says they are in
Melbourne (500 km trip). I would have blown any gains to economy over a year by just driving down to pick it up and then drive
home again. Second it smells of an Amway style marketing thing. I would rather get all messed up on the Lord than get involved with one of these cults.
Secondly I only had 1 solid response that said that there was any fuel saving advantage. The other guy uses it in everything however the fuel savings were not too obvious.
I can get 10% fuel savings by taking off the roof racks, removing the golf clubs and driving with a light foot.
Supermarket delivery here is $3 per case which is also about 1/4 of the cost of of driving. I think that I am just going to be smarter about using the vehicle. The turbo has given me 300 kms extra range per tank (115 litres). It will pay for itself in a couple of years and give me better economy until I sell the vehicle anyway.
I am not saying that Bi Tron is snake oil but I reckon you can do better by using your head.
I ran Chem teck for 3 months and results were not noticeable. I reckon that the internals were probably in better condition and that the algie and water was gone but you can do that with 100% acetone. It cleans your system for about 1/10th of the cost and you can actualy notice the difference in power after about 10 minutes of putting it into your tank.
I am still open to suggestions for fuel savings. LPG wil be concidered on the next vehicle now that diesel has hit $1.23 in my area.
