I did reply elsewhere on this. So follow them cleaning methods then... Get some decent fuel in it, like V-Power or another decent premium fuel. Then get it started and once its running, hammer the fuck out of it for miles!!! Basically burn off and flush through any remaining diesel and get some decent fuel back through again. Oh and chuck in some REDEX or similar too. A WHOLE FUCKING BOTTLE - Then blast the bitch.  |

V power actually contains the same additives as that redex stuff.. bit of a waste of money!
Glad to here you sorted it out now!!

V power actually contains the same additives as that redex stuff.. bit of a waste of money! Glad to here you sorted it out now!! Haha someone always says this. And its not really true. Kind of. But not really. V-Power and REDEX are quite different. V-Power has cleaners in the fuel, but its still fuel. Wayyy better than standard unleaded by far, but also still different to REDEX. If you mixed mud with washing powder to wash your clothes, it wouldn't make your clothes really clean. Just cleaner than using pure mud.  You should try some REDEX (or any petrol system cleaner) and you will notice the difference. My bike felt a lot more smoother with slight better acceleration and I've used it every few thousand miles since. And it certainly helped clean the diesel out of Oli's bike. Haha. Diesel, oh my god... ...Dumbass (joke).  |

Ah thats fair enough, i have just heard nothing but bad things from that lads at my workshop... but they are using it on cars. Apparently it destroys the seals. But bikes are probably different, having such a simple engine in them. Thanks for the information though much appreciated |
