SWEPCO 503 PREMIUM GASOLINE IMPROVER

SWEPCO 503 Premium Gasoline Improver

Most modern engines have direct fuel injection into the combustion chamber for fuel economy and efficiency. In-between injections, the gasoline sits in a hot injector and will begin to form varnish and sludge. Current refining processes, biofuels and synthetic fuels have resulted in fuels that have low oxidation resistance, shortened storage life, and the tendency to form gum and varnish thus creating less power. Gasoline coming from the refineries have a minimal amount of additives present to fight oxidation, [...]
