    My mistake I meant to say 200ml of 2 stroke. I bought a dozen small plastic 250ml bottles which I put in 200ml of 2 stroke and 50ml of Millers. I added that to every full tank of the 2 diesel cars I was running at the time. I did that for about 18 months.
    Then another engineer friend of mine, who I told about adding 2 stoke oil, contacted Shell UK and they sent him a detailed reply advising against doing so which he sent to me but I didn't keep. I also read on another forum that because it has zinc in it it can eventually block the injectors. So now I just add Millers. I have the 70 litre fuel tank on my Q5 so add 70ml of Millers every time.
