Recently I used an Injector Cleaner (S*P brand) for the first time.
While running on that tank full, I got a whiff of petrol one in a while.
After re-filling the tank the second time after adding the injector cleaner, and there after, there was no whiff of petrol noticed.
Is this normal for that particular brand of injector cleaner ?
(earlier I used a different brand, and did not notice a petrol smell).
I pump petrol every 3 or 4 days.
I have noticed that one can get the smell of petrol when passing some petrol sheds, some other vehicles etc etc.
Also sometimes the pertol sold is a bit more smelly at times.
But what I noticed lasted for the few days while I was using the tank full of petrol with the injector cleaner. I do not notice it now or before adding the injector cleaner. Nor do I notice it in another vehicle filled up during the same period (but no injector cleaner added).
I cannot specify a particular situation for getting the smell. It happened occasionally and randomly, and not particularly when idleing, accellarating or doing a particular speed, at the start or after some time, or while in heavey traffic or very light traffic or a particular time of day.
So while it "can" be some other coincidance, I was wondering whether the petrol smell was due to the injector cleaner and normal and whether anyone else had a similar experience or some other problem (which I don't notice now).
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?
