i used to work at gsf car parts in leicester and we used to sell a shed load of this stuff. it does work, but instead of adding it to a full tank i find it works better on about a 1/4 tank and take it out for a good blast. i had a corsa gsi that failed an mot on emissions, added a bottle of this gave it a good run and went back and it passed.

It's usually the good run rather than the Cataclean that does the trick.

i agree with the good run helping but a company cannot sell a product that doesnt do anything. have you actually tried this stuff? Confused

I've not tried Cataclean, although i have tried many fuel additives. They can have some benefit over time. What I was meaning though is that after one run in the Corsa it was more likely the run that meant it passed emmisions rather than the Cataclean.

the corsa used to get a good run every time i drove it. it was the only way to get any entertainment out if it lol. compared with other additives this is the best one ive used.
