Thanks . Specifically its. Mk4 golf. But also Jetta and and bora of the same vintage. Bout £20 on the bay.
Please play nicely. No one wants to listen/read a keyboard warriors rants....
Very unfortunate..........that he thought he could save a few bob by not declaring an existing condition.
Yup, used these for a while now. I would always buy "genuine" NHL ones. Reason being the teeth of the jack base bite into them and a friend of mine had one split on him
Genuine hockey puk. In addition to genuine cam cover gaskets.
I think your figures shouldn't be too far off to be honest, maybe not quite such a drop as 20%. Remember, you will still use petrol (warming up, when you run out of gas). I'd say a 30-35% saving on fuel bill is quite realistic.
You need to fill when nearly empty - short filling or filling when only half empty seems to severely impact MPG, I can only assume quite a lot is lost in the filling process.
Cost on wallet of effective 55mpg, what is not to love?
