Performance Improver
P.i. Performance Improver Concentrate (API)
Improves fuel mileage an average of 2.3% and up to 5.7%. Reduces
emissions such as hydrocarbons (HC) up to 15%, carbon monoxide (CO) up
to 26% and nitrous oxides (NOx) up to 17%. Restores power and
performance. Reduces the need for costly higher octane fuel. Reduces
noise from carbon rap and pre-ignition. Offers better vehicle
drivability and smoother operation.
Reformulated for greater potency
Untreated Fuel
Leads to Poor Engine Performance
A vehicle demonstrates its best efficiency and engine performance when
it is new. As the engine ages, its performance suffers from gasoline
fuel-generated deposits that form on the fuel injectors, intake valves
and combustion chamber. Additives are required to control deposit
formation.
Today’s fuels, however,
lack sufficient treatments of either enough additives or high quality
additives. Fuel system deposits result in the following:
• Lost fuel economy
• Lost power and poor throttle response
• Failed emission tests
• Poor drivability - surging, hesitation, stalling, rough idle
• Engine knocking (pinging) and rap
• Difficult starts
Treated Fuel
Delivers Maximum Performance
AMSOIL P.i. is the most potent gasoline additive available today. As a
concentrated detergent, it is unsurpassed in cleaning combustion chamber
deposits, intake valve deposits and port fuel injector deposits. AMSOIL
P.i. helps maintain peak engine efficiency, fuel economy, power and
drivability in newer low mileage engines. In engines with accumulated
deposits, testing showed AMSOIL P.i. provided the following clean-up
benefits after only one tank of gasoline:
• Improves fuel
mileage an average of 2.3% and up to 5.7%
• Reduced emissions
— hydrocarbons (HC) up to 15%
— carbon monoxide (CO) up to 26%
— nitrous oxides (NOx) up to 17%
• Restored power and performance
• Reduced need for costly higher octane fuel
• Reduced noise from carbon rap and pre-ignition
• Better drivability
• Smoother operation
AMSOIL P.i. works as an
“emissions passer.” It is ideal for use prior to emissions inspections.
Unsurpassed
Deposit Clean-up
Port Fuel Injector Deposits form after the engine has been shut down and
there is no gasoline flowing through the injectors. During this “hot
soak” period the injectors heat up and the gasoline remaining in the
injectors degrades and forms deposits. This can happen very quickly with
the use of poor quality gasoline and short trip driving. Because the
clearances within the injectors are extremely tight and injectors must
deliver precise amounts of “atomized” fuel, even small amounts of
deposits can cause injectors to malfunction. Fuel flow is reduced and
spray patterns are disrupted, decreasing engine efficiency, power and
fuel economy, while increasing exhaust emissions.
Intake Valve
Deposits form on the intake side or back
side of the valves. As deposits increase, they restrict airflow and
alter airflow patterns in the cylinder. The deposits disrupt the
balanced air/fuel ratio by momentarily absorbing and releasing fuel, and
they can cause valve sticking by getting in the way of the valve stem
and guide. Deposits also restrict proper seating, and the valves may be
burned. Intake valve deposits cause lost engine power, increased
emissions, poor engine efficiency and potential valve failure.
Combustion Chamber
Deposits form on the top of the pistons
and on the cylinder heads. They increase compression and absorb heat
during combustion to later release it during the intake cycle. In some
engines with tight squish domes, combustion chamber deposits cause the
piston to actually hit the cylinder head. This is referred to as
combustion chamber deposit interference or “carbon rap.” Combustion
chamber deposits also flake off as they get large, and these flakes can
get trapped between the valves and valve seat, resulting in compression
loss, difficult starting and rough idle.
Higher compression and
stored heat cause increased intake fresh charge temperatures and the
increased likelihood of pre-ignition “knock” or “pinging” when the fuel
spontaneously combusts prior to spark ignition. This increases emissions
and may cause engine damage. Many of today’s cars have “knock” sensors
that adjust spark timing to prevent knock.
Although audible knock is
controlled, power is lost from retarded timing. Higher octane fuels of
4-5 octane numbers can be used to help prevent knock, an effect called
“octane requirement increase.”As a vehicle ages, more-expensive,
higher-octane fuel is needed to keep it operating at peak performance.
By cleaning combustion chamber deposits, knock is controlled, power is
restored, fuel economy increases and higher-octane fuels are less
necessary for peak performance.
Maximum Fuel Economy
AMSOIL P.i. maximizes fuel efficiency by dissolving and removing fuel
system deposits and other contaminants for improved power and overall
performance.
