Question # 12

Allied Advanced Lubrication.

What percentage fuel mileage gains will I realize with MotorSilk?

Fuel efficiency gains will vary depending on the age and condition of the engine. All engines will benefit from an 80% reduction of friction between the moving parts. Older engines with wear will also benefit from an improvement in mechanical efficiency. This results from better compression (tighter fit) as the solid lubricant will fill in some of the excessive clearances caused by wear. In these cases, fuel efficiency gains could be as high as 20% or more.

Newer engines treated with MotorSilk can expect between 5 to 10% better fuel mileage and more important will maintain a higher mechanical efficiency over hundreds of thousands of miles of driving due to the superior wear protection MotorSilk provides.

Note: To maximize fuel efficiency, it may be necessary to recalibrate the computerized fuel feed system if the vehicle's engine is so equipped. These systems calculate and deliver the required amount of fuel based upon monitored conditions inside the engine. Once established however, the fuel feed settings may not automatically adjust to accommodate changing engine conditions.

To clear the existing computer settings, disconnect the negative battery cable for ten(10) minutes. Upon re-starting the engine, the computer will recalibrate itself by measuring the new lower friction environment and adjusting the fuel flow accordingly. Perform this procedure only after the engine has been fully bonded with the MotorSilk solid lubricant. Complete bonding will occur within 500 to 1000 miles of driving following adding the engine treatment.

Some vehicles will need to be driven 10-30 minutes while the computer relearns.

If you are uncertain whether your vehicle has this type of computerized fuel feed system, you may perform the procedure regardless as it will not cause any harm to do so.

Multiple factors contribute to affect fuel efficiency including climatic conditions, manufacturer's fuel formulations, and operator or driver variables.
