Found a random can in halfords earlier when was in with my lassie killing some time for traffic to die down... bought it an ran it through this evening.
Huge amount of thick white smoke coming from exhaust then lumpy idle for 5 mins after... (also found a small hole between manifold and cat).
Found afterwards a far better response from engine and faster through gears...
Not a huge difference but for 20 squid was impressed... anyway, I rate it highly.

Because it's in a nice tin.

If you saw a bucket of wheat and chaff for 8 quid and a nice box with a picture of a naked woman and a pretty pink ribbon for a tenner, I know which I'd go for...
