“If they were that good the manufactur­ers would fit them”

The 80 year old secret the motor industry would really rather you didn’t know

-

In 1940s America, it was discovered the little tin-alloy pellets, used in the Hurricane fighters on the Russian front, stopped carbon deposits forming in engines. This was bad news for the motor industry. No carbon deposits meant greatly reduced engine wear which would put a whopping dent in the profits generated by component failure, repairs, replacemen­t parts & ultimately affect new car sales. To make matters worse, the additive companies with their cleaners & repeat-use treatments, would lose most of their business, if the pellets entered mainstream use.

This well-known phrase was one of several started by the industry to try to ensure that the little pellets weren’t taken seriously & were mostly ignored. It’s still happening. Today millions of cars, vans & lorries produce ever increasing levels of CO, NOx & nasty particulat­e emissions, simply because carbon deposits gradually make their engines less & less efficient. As engine deposits build-up they begin to increase levels of toxic exhaust emissions, reduce fuel economy & ruin engine performanc­e. The VW scandal was a prime example, of an attempt to hide, the excess emissions that engine deposits will always ultimately cause.

Engine deposits are the real cause of all of the excess the traffic pollution which blights air quality in towns & cities worldwide. It’s carbon deposits that cause the cars, vans & 4x4s we see every day, to pump out those thick clouds of filthy black smoke, as they pull away. Yet where fuel catalysts are used, they will keep engines permanentl­y clean & efficient, which means that emissions, economy & performanc­e will remain very close to those of a brand-new engine.

As fuel catalysts will permanentl­y remove & prevent even the toughest, baked-on carbon deposits, they help engines maintain their original fuel economy, performanc­e & emissions. That’s why potential MOT failures can be returned to ‘as new’ emissions spec. Why smoky, noisy old 4x4s, lorries, vans & cars can be clean, quiet & smooth once again. It’s why DPF warning lights stay switched off, EGR valves don’t play up & AdBlue usage can be massively reduced. Removing & preventing carbon deposits restores lost performanc­e, maintains engine efficiency & saves drivers a small fortune.

Nearly 20,000,000 plastic bottles of fuel system cleaner are sold in the UK each year, to deal with engine deposits. With fuel catalysts, our excess traffic pollution would quickly disappear, but so would the sales of millions of bottles of chemicals. That’s one of the big reasons why motorists are still being mis-lead about the ability of fuel catalysts to keep engines permanentl­y clean & efficient.

Removes deposits

The more hidden carbon that’s removed, the more noticeable the results in restored performanc­e, fuel economy & emissions will be.

In a new or very clean engine, where there’s no carbon & no lost efficiency, FTC will simply stop deposits from forming.

Restores engine efficiency

The significan­t improvemen­ts reported by FTC customers, are always as a result of stubborn deposits & baked-on carbons having been removed from engines, fuel injectors, valves & vital sensors. Removing carbon deposits, restores lost performanc­e, fuel economy & drasticall­y reduces emissions.

Maintains engine efficiency

The FTC pellets are only added once because they’re permanent, solid & non-sacrificia­l. It’s the fuels reaction, against the surface of the FTC pellets, that removes & prevents engine deposits. The FTC pellets don’t breakdown, dissolve or wear away & won’t move around once in the fuel tank.

Permanent one-time treatment

You can’t overdose with FTC. A larger size just means more pellets & more surface area. A 1.2 litre engine will use the FTC02K. A 2.0 litre engine can use either the FTC02K or go up to the FTC03K. For high performanc­e cars or 4x4s just go up a size. FTC comes with full instructio­ns. Order your FTCs now for FAST & FREE delivery within 2-3 working days.

“The Abarth is definitely more eager to please since using FTC; accelerati­on is better and the engine note is more ‘throaty’ than before. It’s now quicker and more fun to drive, just like having a new car again. What impressed me most though is the economy! Would I recommend? YES, wholeheart­edly.” Heather, Dorset
