How is Techron® different from other fuel companys additives?
Most oil companies use deposit control additives that do an adequate job in the engine’s intake system. However, many of these additives contribute to combustion chamber deposits which can cause an engine to need a higher octane fuel to avoid knock and run-on, or loss in performance. These excessive deposits can also cause higher emissions of harmful substances such as nitrogen oxides. Nitrogen oxides cause acid rain and ozone smog. In contrast, Techron®, exclusive to our family of brands, Caltex, Texaco and Chevron, not only provides unbeatable performance in fuel system deposit control, it also minimises build-up of combustion chamber deposits.
