Well we were rather busy today so i thought forget the oil change, lets just stick a petrol treatment in. Emissions tester was on the blink so only a compression test was done

before...

175psi
175psi
170psi
200psi

after a 6 mile test drive...

180psi
190psi
180psi
200psi

Not bad for a petrol treatment tbh

He also got his bearing machine out and tested oil then forte flush and then some other products. Basically, very impressive results. I shall never use engine flush again unless its FORTE

I feel I should invest in said products...

Do you want me to come in and buy that 'washer' we discussed?

but that compression test is irrelevant and shows nothing. unless you monitor engine and oil temps before and after then you cant tell if its the treatment that has helped or wether the engine is just a bit hotter.

I have seen compression results go up or down by 10% by just having an engine that is slightly warmer.

However, Forte stuff is very very good and would reccomend it to anyone.

was it the magical 'ball bearing in a tube' highly scientific thing he showed you? if so thats also a load of turd as it does not replicate the engines working environment, only some cold oil in a tube.

Was the engine cold when the 'before' readings were taken?
