POWER PILL

PowerPill FE3

PowerPill is a highly-refined pure petroleum product of exceptional quality, with an atomic structure composed of long hydrocarbon chains (H60+C30+). PowerPill is made from a high-vacuum, high-temperature distillation process, way beyond the usual refining practices. (By comparison octane rated petrol is a far less refined product). PowerPill is made by New Image International under U. S. Lubricants International. PowerPill and Micro PowerPill (for smaller engines) are supplied in a convenient, easy-to-store tablet form. The tablets dissolve completely in fuel to promote cleaner burning engines.

The main benefits of using the PowerPill are:

Reduces exhaust smoke, emissions.
Increases engine power.
Improves fuel economy.
Cleans injectors, carburettors and entire fuel system.
Promotes more complete fuel combustion.
Easier start-up for seldom used engines.
Lubricates and conditions valves, pistons and rings.
Absolutely safe - cannot damage any type of engine.
Acts as a lead substitute



Both PowerPill and Micro PowerPill are equally effective in petrol and diesel engines, 2- or 4-stroke. Being of a hydrocarbon composition, PowerPill is a fuel conditioner not an additive.



Understanding the principles
Hydrocarbon motor fuels (petrol and diesel) come from a variety of off-shore oil wells, inheriting a variety of problems. In an attempt to overcome some of these problems, and to improve various mechanical efficiencies, a large number of additive products have appeared on the market. Scepticism concerning these additives abounds! Understandably so, since many of these products really have no benefit or could even be harmful to your machine. The PowerPill is in no way similar to any of these additives. The continued use of additives often causes more problems than they cure. For these reasons most knowledgeable owners of working machines are wary of using additives.



POWERPILL - A Fuel Conditioner
PowerPill fuel conditioners are not additives, nor do they in any way resemble additives. The PowerPill formulation is made up only of organic compounds originating from the refining process. That is the important difference. PowerPill products are conditioners and not additives. PowerPill products condition and purify the fuel, altering its molecular structure and other properties, thus changing the way the fuel behaves.



The use of PowerPill cannot damage your vehicle or machinery in any way.
PowerPill products do not contain damaging chemicals such as sulphur, metal destroying acids, chlorinated lime, carbon tetrachloride, abrasives, metal phenolates, poly-amino succini-mides or zinc dialkyl-dathiophosphates. PowerPill products are designed to complement and extend the life of existing additive packages already added to the fuel by the manufacturers.



PowerPill "conditioning packages" are blended to achieve these results:

Dispersancy/Reabsorption
PowerPill is a system. It is designed to clean, keep clean, and lubricate fuel lines. It also cleans carbon build-up from the valve seats and piston rings. Gums, lacquers and varnishes are reabsorbed into solution and eliminated through combustion. The top oil "carrier" that distributes the PowerPill formulation is extremely effective in these areas as a penetrating agent, and to help clean and further lubricate. PowerPill molecules inhibit normal interaction of metallic ions in the oil. Normally, sulphates and nitrates react with water and other elements to form acids, gums, varnishes and non-combustible residue.

PowerPill products stop these processes. Our compounds convert engine acids to synthetic esters, which in themselves are excellent reducers of sludge and varnish. The rate of degradation of PowerPill-treated lubricating oil is drastically reduced and this extends the effective life of the oil.

Benefit: A cleaner-burning engine with more power that produces less smoke.



Corrosion Inhibition
The petroleum-derived rust and corrosion inhibitors blended into PowerPill products reduce the formation of sulphuric, nitric, hydrochloric and hydrobromic acids. They also inhibit the formation of organic and naphthenic acids that are not affected by the corrosion and anti-rust agents added during refining.

Benefit: Reduces the damage caused by acid action in your engine.



Bacteria/Microbe/Water control
Through its bacteriostatic action and emulsification properties, PowerPill conditioner helps control the growth of bacteria and microbes in fuel tanks and fuel storage tanks. PowerPill helps eliminate the environment that is needed for this growth. Normally this is the inter-surface between the fuel and the water.

Benefits: Less sludge in your fuel system; longer lasting fuel filters.



Colour Stability and Oxidation Control
Fuel can and does go stale. Without treatment, it can become less and less effective over time. PowerPill contains oxidation inhibitors to retard oxidation and improve colour stability. These oxidation inhibitors slow, or stop the ageing of fuel in storage, thus preventing the formation of gum and sludge in storage tanks and fuel systems.

Benefits: extended life of fuel filters; easier start-up for engines that are infrequently used.



Exhaust Emission Inhibition
The main by-product of combustion engines shown by exhaust analysis should be carbon dioxide. Often, however, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon readings result. Carbon monoxide comes from incomplete combustion, while hydrocarbons result from unburned fuel. In normally functioning engines, an average of 60 to 65% of the fuel is completely burned with the remainder exhausted. PowerPill conditioners alter the molecular structure of fuel so up to 90% or more is burned. Because of this more complete fuel burn, emissions are reduced. Engines will run cooler, with a resulting drop in exhaust temperature.

Benefits: A substantial reduction in air pollution by internal combustion engines.



Fuel Economy
Diesel or petrol engines treated with PowerPill show a decrease in fuel consumption, depending on load, terrain, altitude and weather conditions. Internationally recognised fuel economy tests are included at the back of these packages. PowerPill should improve fuel economy by at least 10% after using for at least 5% of total engine mileage.

Benefits: Cost savings through improved fuel economy.



Reductions in Maintenance Costs
PowerPill dramatically reduces wear rates on injectors and injector pumps because of increased lubrication of the moving parts in the entire fuel system. Pistons, valves and combustion chambers stay free of deposits, while ring wear is substantially reduced.

Benefits: Savings in running costs for all engines.



Fuel Storage Stability
PowerPill treated diesel/petrol in storage at 65°C usually shows an evaporation loss of 12% less than untreated fuel. Blend stability, a factor in fuel ageing is increased by 50%. Oxidation inhibitors slow or stop the ageing of stored fuel and the formation of gum and sludge. Because of this action, less expensive, lower quality fuels can be safely used without increased maintenance problems.

Benefits: Less fuel lost to evaporation's; easier start-up with old fuel; greater performance from poor-quality fuels.



POWERPILL CONDITIONERS WILL:

Increase power by promoting more complete combustion of fuel.
Improve fuel economy by allowing your engine to burn fuel more efficiently.
Reduce dangerous exhaust emissions by cleaning up the entire fuel system.
Allow easier start-up by controlling fuel stability.
Prevent knocking in petrol engines by removing and preventing carbon deposits on piston tops and other combustion chamber areas.
Remove and prevent cylinder wall glazing. This engine malady is normally caused by acid-contaminated oil. Glazing results in increased oil consumption and blowby.
Increase fuel mileage or engine hours by increasing combustion efficiency and removing accumulated deposits.
Free sticking rings caused by heat, deposits and inadequate upper cylinder lubrication.
Increase injector life by reducing carbon deposits on injector tips and controlling moisture in fuel.
Control water problems reducing the formation of sulphuric acid and helping to eliminate the environment necessary for bacteria growth (Diesel Bug).



Please note:
PowerPill products are not a cure-all, nor are they meant to replace the need for professional diagnostics and repair or routine maintenance. Be aware that problems affecting an engine's performance can result from faults in the electrical system, timing, excessive and irreversible wear of rings, bearings, etc. We cannot ''repair' mechanical defects, but may provide some relief from certain mechanical problems. The PowerPill does the job it's intended to do and does it better than any other conditioners or additives available today.

IMPORTANT
Fuel filters must be monitored and changed if necessary after first using Power Pills. After this clean-up phase, fuel filter life can be extended substantially.



Application of PowerPill for High Performance Two Stroke Engines
PowerPill is particularly suitable for use with two stroke engines due to the problems associated with burning fuel oil mix efficiently. As much as 40% of the mixture can be exhausted unburned and this is wasteful on fuel and has a detrimental effect on the environment. Dr Roy Douglas, who is currently at the forefront of two stroke engine development for a number of multinationals, carried out performance testing on PowerPill in order to maximise the effect on fuels used in competition. His results allow tuning of the engines to suit fuel treated with PowerPill. Unleaded fuel was used for the laboratory tests but field trials were conducted with specialised higher octane fuels such as Avgas and Elf 2T. PowerPill reacted similarly in all the fuels used. Dr Douglas's research proved that PowerPill treated fuel will burn approximately 25% faster than standard fuel. This faster burn rate allows for more efficient combustion of the fuel charge in the cylinder. This faster expansion of gas can be directly related to an increase in power output. At any given engine revolution the fuel mixture has a very short time in which to combust.

We now have a situation where treated fuel is burned faster than untreated, so the engine could take in more fuel at a given revolution and burn that extra fuel efficiently as well. Trials carried out on racing machinery have shown that moving up one or two jet sizes from the normal settings further improved power output. Two stroke machines normally run with a rich mixture so that cooling of the pistons occurs as the fuel evaporates from the crown. If standard jet sizes are retained, the faster burn rate could show similar effects to that of lean mixture, i.e. light grey colour crown and overheating of the piston. Timing of the engine is also important in getting the best from PowerPill. Ignition of the fuel air mix occurs before TDC in order that the flame front has time to move through the gas and reach its peak burn approximately 10 degrees after TDC. Treated fuel burns faster and may reach its peak before 10 degrees, so in order to bring the engine back to within its normal operational envelope it may be necessary to retard the ignition timing by one or two degrees.
