Hi all, first post in Motors as I drive a clown car inherited from work...
I'm looking for recommendations on a good fuel additive for reducing carbon deposits... I think. I've recently had a couple of fault codes stating a misfire. No obvious bangs or lurches though, but I'm now a bit paranoid my engine's running rough.
It's a Smart, 1L 3-cylinder engine. I live in London so do loads of low speed/stop-start driving and very rarely get to high revs. Doesn't help that I try to drive the car in a fuel efficient way . Other Smart users have suggested the engines are prone to carbon/general buildup at low speeds.
If the engine light comes on a third time I'll take it to the garage for some tests but in the meantime, it's been suggested to use a fuel additive to try and clean things up a bit.
What do you lot like to use?
