Biased view I know guys, as my company markets the Wynn's range of chemicals, but I'd like to make a couple of points here. Firstly, I have seen some of the work that goes into developing these chemicals & they do, in the main, work. Millions of dollars goes into the R & D. I use the Diesel Power Three injector cleaner, the Oil Flush & the Diesel Clean Up (This is developed especially for use in the fuel filter upon changing it) I find these excellent. Secondly, regarding the oil flushes, look out, as there are two main types, the solvent flushes, such as Power Max, these are harsh solvents, which can clean really well, but you might have an engine which sounds like a bag of rusty nails after. The other type are the detergent flushes, such as Wynn's, Forte etc, these clean without stripping some of the varnish & gum that is literally holding the engine together. Thirdly, some of the prices that you guys seem to be paying for your Forte, Power Max etc seem pie in the sky, people quoting £5 & £6 per bottle, no wonder you are reticent about using it, the Wynn's oil flush is under 3 quid a shot(+ VAT), well worth using on every service, charge out @ £7.95 + VAT, healthy extra profit on every service, & if you get one in a hundred say "I'm not paying for that" smile & knock it off the bill, you've alredy made loads on all the others! Contact your local CAF BDE for accurate pricing on all the Wynn's range. Regards, Rob Drinkwater. Business Development Manager - CAFTEC Technology & Training Division. Camberley Auto Factors Limited.
