I recently decided to buy a bottle of AR6400D Max from Archoil. I have recently bought a 1.6 I-Dtec Honda. It's a cracking little car with a very quiet and extremely efficient diesel engine in it.
I thought I'd "treat" it to a bottle of injector cleaning called Archoil AR6400-D Max.
Reviews, as always with these things, are very positive. However, I often do agree these are placebo.
The fluid contains 2-EHN which is a scientifically proven cetane booster, so perhaps the improvement people think they feel from this stuff is just the fact that 2-EHN makes the fuel burn a little better just while this is in the tank?
Do these things ever actually have ability to clean injectors as they claim? Are they just a bottle of the additives that are added to "Premium" fuels at a higher concentration perhaps?
Archoil use little graphs that show improvements etc, this one sounds potentially good. It was tested on the standard DW10 "injector cleanliness cycle" test and showed improvements according to their graphs.
Any thoughts & experiences would be interesting to hear about.
