How Does Redex Work?

[Craig321]

1. Redex is pointless nowadays, petrol contains detergents

2. Slow down from 70mph to 65 that will make a difference, you only have a small engine in it and it does not have tall gearing, as its designed for town use, stop start.

I wouldn't say pointless. Every time I used it on my old bike it'd smooth out the idle nicely. Granted it had carbs and they were probably a little clogged, but still the stuff isn't pointless.

Redex, Used it once a long time ago, nothing but trouble so had the car in and the technician said it buggerd my cat!

Redex didn't bugger your cat

Your poor cat! Should have taken him to a vet, not a technician.

Use it on my bikes every few tanks. But petrol cars, I don't bother.

Diesel however, every few tanks again. I filled my 330d up for the 3rd time on Friday (always do from fuel light to brim) and poured an entire bottle in. It's about 25% too much, but it's not volatile nor damaging stuff if too much is put in.

It helps a lot on diesel engines.

Better off buying premium diesel
