Catalyst pellets
Discussion
Hi OP.
Not sure you bought the correct catalysts. Problem with the FTC02K Fuel Tank catalysts is your Avensis uses a Denso 1ADV-FTV tank. Whilst I don't think the catalysts will have any adverse effects on your vehicle, having studied the various research over the years and followed FTC with great interest I do believe these will actually be the ones you need.

These should ensure correct fitment.

So you get them into the fuel tank and they just sit there? Forever?
Forever! Ace, must get me some.

I needed a laugh after a day long conf call.
Now, will the OP be back?

In the good old days you'd see heavy marketing of this tripe as soon as the weather looked to be breaking from winter into spring - people who bought them were usually daft enough to not factor the influence of air temperature as being the cause for the their miraculous fuel economy improvement.....so they'd swear it was the inert product that never wears out that they dumped in the fuel tank.
The modern equivalent would be the 'hydrogen on demand' setups which claim all sorts of benefits from fitting a small kettle filled with deionised water which squirts a small amount of 'hydrogen' into the inlet manifold - neglecting to mention that said tiny trickle of gas has cooled to the point of returning to a water state by the time it gets there - so basically you're injecting tiny amounts of water into the engine, which generally is a substance you try and keep away from fuel!

Apparently Subaru AND Mitsubishi used Broquet pellets in some of their cars back in the day. Again whether or not they actually worked seemed open to debate but that's 2 manufacturers that were somehow convinced of the benefits of the pellets at the time. Make of it what you will.

Didn't the iraq government spend 60 million on 'golf ball finding' bomb detectors. Big governments and corporations can be duped as easily as the sucker on the street.https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-general-1/2928...

Why wouldn't they work for engines over 2000cc? (that is assuming they would work in engines below 2000cc, which they don't)
it adds an air of credibility, I mean if they said it worked for all engines sizes people might think it was bulls
t when it clearly isn't.

What, are you some failed school yard bully? 'will the OP be back???' I don't know if I will be back around here, you taught me a right lesson. Some peoples replies have been genuinely funny, you sound like a bit of a dickI needed a laugh after a day log conf call.
Now, will the OP be back?

These sort of forums are full of people with no life, and no car knowledge.
You might be right.But "these" forums are also full of people like me!
(I've developed more cars over the last 30 years than you've had hot dinners, have worked for just about every OEM that ever existed, have done literally thousands of engine and vehicle tests, for performance, economy and emissions, can explain, from first principals how an entire car works in minute detail and ohh, i'm pretty hand with the ol' spanners too....)

I'm not sure I believe you. If you were really as above why did you feel the need to advertise your 'expertise' after all you didn't disagree with my initial point. Have I aggrieved you, or are you generally outraged? But "these" forums are also full of people like me!

They will work but the benefits will be reduced. I personally guarantee that the cost to fill up your tank will be permanently reduced!
Furthermore, the formula to calculate the reduction in £ per tank fill is:N x 4/3πr^3 /1000 x 1.25
Where N = number of catalyst elements
r = average radius of catalyst element in cm
