I discovered I had too much oil in van after it failed an early mot on emissions.
Had it drained. Was told to put in half a tank of diesel, a bottle of injector cleaner, drive 100miles. At least 4 times in the 100 miles, I must drive in 3rd gear, 50mph, for 3 min at a time.
My van really does NOT like to do 40mph in 3rd gear for 20 seconds. Its a real strain driving, and I wonder if im damaging anything, get nervous and change gear. Its just to hard to get it up to 50mph.
Is there anything else I can do? ie When my 100miles is up, can I just put in another bottle of injector cleaner, and drive another 100 miles, and that will have the same end result, instead of straining myself and van. Many thanks.
