I've recently done a full service on my BB8 5th gen.

Only thing I didn't change was the fuel filter.
I'm gona get it done next week but wanted to know how much difference in MPG I will see?

I'm also considering doing TERRACLEAN.
Anyone had that done?

I very much doubt you'll see any difference in MPG with a new fuel filter.
It's always good to change it though. I've just changed my one out.

What is TERRACLEAN? :?

Terraclean is a massive new company that clean out your entire engine, cat and exhaust system.




It sounds good and I trust Edd China.

Opinions?

Yeah it made a big difference to the Jag but I've read alot of reviews which say that on more common cars do benefit a lot too.

Everything for more MPG and POWER!!!!!!!

is it going to dislodge any thicker gunk that could get stuck in a filter?

If I'm honest, I don't know mate.
But it does clean all the internal parts in your engine, including your manifold, cat n exhaust system so it defo can't do any harm.

I'd be very surprised if Terrahawks isn't yet another bottle of snake oil - prove me wrong!
