The advantages of using a marine engine additive are as follows:
- Removal of unwanted water from your fuel
Ready to clean and run your engine better
- Keep your tanks, lines and marine engine parts clean
- Increase fuel efficiency
- Prevent fuel injectors from blocking
- Reduce harmful emissions
- Stop algae and micro bacteria from fouling your tanks and lines
- Improve engine speed
Ah! the trusty sound of a Volvo Penta coming to life!
Removing particles from dirty fuel
The additive system identifies foreign, unwanted particles in the fuel and dissolves them. So they are passed through the engine without causing trouble.
Tackling water in the diesel engine
Water causes low performance and increases the risk of inboard engine parts becoming faulty. Having the additive works by dispersing the water at a molecular level. This means that it is able to run through the engine parts harmlessly.
Fuel injectors and cylinder heads
Stop the build up of unwanted soot and lower damage to these complex components. Both fuel injectors and cylinder heads require diligent maintenance. Having additive in your fuel means that the injectors are not susceptible to blockage, whilst the cylinder heads are kept clear of unwanted soot.
Reduce emissions and go faster!
Yes! You can do both! The additive increases combustion and lowers emissions of hydro carbons, sulphur dioxide and carbon dioxide. All products of combustion. Through this efficiency you get increased boatspeed.
