There should be an elimination process to include checking a foreign used vehicle with the same borescope. Our fuel is most terrible no doubt, but all organic compounds( including ethanol) reduce to carbon upon full combustion.

Piyke:


Low octane fuel, impurities, high compression ratio (as a result of deposits), should upset the tight air-fuel ratio for combustion. In essence, there may not be enough of fuel/air (or the perfect ratio of the same) to reduce the organic matter to carbon... My take.

Kirkman:

Oga Piyke what's the status update when the GUMOUT fuel treatment and ethanol was used?

Piyke:


In progress . Will certainly update soon...

olenyi:

Great video as always.

You talked about switching to a more reputable fuel outlet. Did you record an improvement in engine performance with this change?

Kirkman:

In summary Gumout did it's job as stated. The before and after pics was as clear as the difference between night and day.

olenyi:



Finally.

What an expose. Nice video and clear explanation. The Gumout really did it's job as advertised.

Now I understand why it took you so long. Three full tanks. Good job.

My warm regards.

Piyke:


Yes it did. I will do this again with Liqui Moly...

Piyke:


Thanks boss!

adubam:


Where can I get it?

Piyke:


I got mine from Amazon: link is in the video description. If you are in Abuja, I recall seeing a variant of this at Sahad stores in Central Area (the version of gumout for high mileage cars).

Nice work you are doing as usual Piyke. Keep it up! Do they (Amazon) send directly to you or you use a shipper? Sadly, my shippers have stopped shipping flammable/combustible items through air so I now use ocean freight for those.

I use Seafoam products (SS-14 and HM-16 or SS-16) for my cars. They are very good products. I want to try STP Complete Fuel System Cleaner and Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer now and see how they are.

Piyke:


Thanks for the compliment!
On switching gas station, you know now, it takes some time to know if the fuel is better, plus I've been driving spirited lately, so not quite ideal to compare mpg. One thing I can say though, I have often noticed that if I get low quality fuel, my generator with remote start will take 2 cranks to start. There's a NIPCO station that I used to get fuel from. Once I buy fuel from there, the gen will always start on second attempt compared to when I get from this other station. That said, I've noticed that occasionally, even the so called "good" station can get bad stock.

Nice video and description. Very well done indeed.

Mrcoolautofix, come and see how it's done.

No name calling, no slander, no funny accents, no insult to the motherland or fellow technicians.

olenyi:



Abi? That funny accent is a total turn off. Like someone that is being strangled. And claiming his audience is not Nigerians as if he can do pass Chris fix them.

Alaye just dey shalaye. .

sooperrescue:
Interesting thread. Does Honda uses premium unleaded fuel. I have seen on the 2010 Accord that premium fuel is required. Is it now a standard feature? I will suggest that you try this product on a 2007 Camry which does not require premium fuel and let's see the outcome of our fuel on the car.

9icetoo:

There is no "reputable" fuel station.

Hear me out.

1. They all get PMS from the same source (NNPC or the few oligarchs who import low octane ethanol and methanol batched PMS)
2. They do not have filters installed between their tanks and their pumps (which should be a standard but in Nigeria the regulatory bodies don't give a ...)
3. They do not wash their tanks. Never.
4. None of these retail outlets bothers to conduct tests on the PMS supplied to them so they don't even know the quality of the product being sold to you.

Old stock will cause hard starts like you experienced.

PMS blended with high quantities of naphtha will also cause that. Na local refinery dey always supply this one.

Will prefer we don't shake the table of the 2nd part of your comment. You know it can derail thread and cause world war, right?

Piyke:


Honda calls for regular unleaded petrol in the 9th Gen. 2013 - 2017. Was the 2007 for the US market?

boldx:

How much is the GUM OUT pls?

Piyke:


As seen at Sahad Stores... N13k a pop.

lilkech:


What’s the location of this particular store?
