The thing is, I am not a fast driver, I don't think I have it in me. Also, looking at previous MOT's before getting her, its been close to the limit for awhile.

What can I do to help this? Could it be the induction kit? Should I put some additive in it with the fuel? I don't want to be in fear of a fail next year for this.


Thanks.
Dawn, You dont have to drive like a Loon to give it an "Italian Tune Up" Just drive in a low gear say third and keep the revs up at about 3 to 4 k for a couple of miles, It may sound brutal butIt worked for me on my "F".

You need to get the CAT hot to do any good and this is the way to do it.
