How can oil be as cheap as diesel???

If it gets any cheaper I will be asking for the maximum concentration rather then the minimum!!!

Agree with Robbie

decided to get another few bottles as its as near as dam it to the cost of diesel, it adds a litre of liquid to your tank and helps everything work, seems no reason to not add some now.... just how much can you add.

is there going to be a new thread "whats the most 2stO you can add"

Was a bit surprised how many where still on the shelf in Gainsborough as well Whistle picked up on the way to the Indian last night.

So which curry house in Gainsborough gets your vote as from what I have tried so far the 2 stroke tastes better?

Filled up in Gainsborough and at £1.48 I could not resist another 4 bottles. I am now stocking up for the car after next!

Gainsborough Tesco has loads on the shelves at this mad price.

you may want to stick to the 2sO Shocked

tried "sufian" for the first time, had heard it was OK Question

everything was "a bit on the hot side" peshwari nan and the mixed pakoras not up to much, main dish's not bad, may go again, just not rushing back Laughing

rate the wing lei opposite for a take away though Thumbs Up for their dim sum combination

Tried the 'Sufian' (aka the Sufferer) shortly after it opened but it seemed to follow the Gainsbrough trend of crap curry houses.

I have been known to trek (rather frequently) all the way to Brigg for an excellent curry (Bengal Spice, award winning place). One thing I miss since moving up here is good curry houses.

2sO with nan for me.

Being a newbie on this site, could somebody point me in the right direction to explain the benefits of adding 2 stroke oil to a diesel engine. Confused
