OK here is the argument from work

Bertie Big Bolx who is early 30's has a wicked init 320d BMW on a 57 plate

he says he is going to fit NOZ to it, yes I know what the real stuff is called but BBB said Nitrous Oxide and Laughing gas is different to NOZ

So I said it wont work on a Diesel but BBB said NOZ is a liquid and burns so will work with his 320d

Am I being thick about it not working with a diesel ?

Before you ask or tell me about it and how it works I already know as back in late 80's and early 90's I had it on several cars because I had a mate working for BOC and we got the gas for free smile

Oh it's possible, but the hassle and risks of turning your engine into an expensive paperweight usually outweigh the possible benefits.

Edit: too slow D:

I'd quite like to see the results of an engine+oxyacetalene combination..
