TSO appears to have killed my Darth Vader. Any ideas how ?
Recently I've made the leap of faith and added Two Stroke Oil to my 2006 TDV6 when I fill up with diesel.
The biggest, most noticeable, change is the seaming loss of the rasping noise which occured when maintaining speed on a slight throttle opening.
The rasping sounded very similar to Darth Vader breathing out.
I originally thought it was simply airflow somehow resonating at a certain volumetric throughput. Adding TSO to the fuel wouldn't have any effect if that were the case.
Other than TSO having Jedi powers, does anyone have any thoughts on what was causing the noise and how TSO has helped ?

It's a chemical reaction from the Tso and high pressure fuel delivery and produces c3po which reduces injector chatter and rasping sounds tis good stuff

I know some people think TSO in diesel is about as useful as lucky heather but I can't believe that this is pure coincidence.

Haha fu ng hilarious
In all seriousness I too added tso at my last fill after reading lots about it here on the forums. First thing I did notice was how much quieter it is at cruising at 30 mph. I can honestly say I've noticed nothing more in terms of fuel consumption etc, in fact I actually think it smokes a tad more under hard acceleration. Mine was extremely clean before hand. Maybe I'm looking for things though, fact is that rattly whirring noise has disappeared.
May the force be with you in your quest for hyper drive on your falcon.
Sure it's not more of an AT-AT noise? Mine does that when it's Hoth. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
