Anti knock additives for diesel engines

Cursitor Doom · 2018-10-13T12:38:05+00:00

Has anyone a recommendation for such a product? Since swapping over ECUs in one of the diesel Land Rovers, the engine has been noticeably noisier which I put down to a touch of pinking. Ideally I'd get the software tweaked in the new ECU but that's not poss right now I just need a temporary fix until such time as I can get it hooked up to a compatible interface. Any suggestions?

As did my RC planes / boats, along with a 'clunk nozzle'. ;-)

The Daimler-Benz DB601 in the Bf 109 (not Me!) had direct fuel injection.

Miss Shilling's Orifice was only used on the Merin until an anti-G version of the SU carburettor was designed. This was later replaced by the pressure diaphragm Bendix carburettor. There was also a Stromberg type.
