Powerful Fuel Additives And Tips On Their Use

By Deborah Stone


Additives on fuel are said to improve the performance of your engine and make it more more economical. Others will do both. However, the ranging debate is whether fuel additives offer the value they promise and the alternatives available in the market. Further, is there something about these additions that manufacturers do not tell consumers?

The reason many people will pick an additive without questioning lies in its price. At five dollars or less, you are more likely to try than ignore the product. However, to use or not use is the question. Surprisingly, no one has sold a vehicle for using or failing to use any additive. A spin has been thrown into the debate with the invention of products aimed at reducing emissions.

The reason for using an additive will depend on the intentions of the driver. The fact that it is cheap and displayed at the gas station is not a reason enough. Before you buy any product and add it into your engine, ascertain that it delivers the value it promises by reading through reviews. Only use an additive when you need to clean your engine or when leaving the vehicle to stay idle for a prolonged period. In all cases, adhere to instructions given on the product to avoid compromising your engine.

Is it true that an additive can make engines more economical on fuel? Experts caution against the use of such products. The main issue is lack of value in using such a product. The saving is usually not substantial. This means that you end up spending as much as you save. Further, no additive can achieve the octane rating of premium grade petrol.

There are worthy alternatives you can use that will give you greater value. For instance, if you have maintained your vehicle and is less than ten years, there is no need to add anything to the engine. Its performance will be top notch. The engine system and electronics of vehicles are engineered to deliver the best performance. You may boost the performance of your engine by using high octane petrol instead.

Gas stations have more efficient fuel, especially the kind used on sport cars. This will deliver the performance you are looking for. It is better because it is not considered as a foreign product. A vehicle that requires an additive for its engine is also too old and will cost you more on other maintenance operations.

The concern for most vehicle owners is the impact of additives on the engine of your vehicle. From research and experience, there is no threat or damage to the engine because of using additives. The only caution is to maintain the vehicle according to instructions and verify the quality of fuel you use.

Mixing of additives will not cause any problem to your engine. It is allowed to use a cleaning agent and performance boosting agent at the same time. You should also privilege maintenance because it is the ultimate determinant of the performance of a vehicle. Any negative reaction should cause you to abandon use of a product. Seek professional assistance as soon as possible.
