• Two products designed to reduce engine wear and improve fuel consumption are on offer from Auto Marine. , Dura-Lube, a PTFE-based oil additive, coats moving parts in a thin layer of slippery resin. The treatment lasts for at least 80,000km and reduces engine friction by up to 50%, says the company. Dura-Lube costs £13. Petro-Mizer is a magnetic device which is claimed to improve fuel consumption by 10-20% on petrol or diesel vehicles. The unit is attached to the outside of the fuel line. One is normally sufficient but two are required with Bosch distributor-type diesel pumps. Petro-Mizer costs around /43 ex VAT per unit.
