Difference between Hybrogen and AR6900-D

by Andy Published on Thursday, March 21st, 2019

Fuel additive science is not definite. There are too many influencing factors and differing requirements to be able to produce the “ultimate additive” that universally works for all. What may work well on one engine does not guarantee success on another. This presents the need for different technologies to help match successful functions to that […]

Using Fuel Additives at Higher Dosages - Overdosing

by Andy Published on Friday, March 13th, 2015

A question I am regularly asked is whether fuel additives can be added at a higher dose or added to less fuel in order to make a stronger concentrate, and whether this is more beneficial. The answer in most cases is no. This is because additives are specifically designed to work with a certain amount […]

Fuel & Carbon Cleaners - What Happens to the Carbon?

by Andy Published on Tuesday, March 10th, 2015

Frequently we are asked about fuel-based carbon cleaners. Specifically, what happens to carbon deposits that are removed through the use of fuel cleaners and can these cleaners damage an engine?

MPG - Negative vs Positive Gain ™

by Andy Published on Thursday, February 12th, 2015

by Andy Published on Friday, January 24th, 2014

The existing definition of “burn rate modifier” and the phrase “lowers burn rate by up to 400 degrees” has caused confusion. In simple terms, a catalyst facilitates a better burn of […]

Do Fuel and Oil Additives Really Work?

by Andy Published on Thursday, May 30th, 2013

Some would consider “work” as improve performance or increase mpg, whereas others would consider “work” as clean the fuel system, restore fuel injector efficiency or reduce friction. Others would consider a product to have “worked” if it […]

Should Fuel Additives be Added to an Empty Tank?

by Andy Published on Monday, May 20th, 2013

I am often asked how and when fuel additives should be added. With an empty or full tank of fuel? Should I wait until its down to a quarter of a tank? Etc. The reality is that it doesn’t matter how much fuel is currently in the tank. The key is to ensure that regardless […]
