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 and the removal of carbon, varnish and corrosion. This results from better compression (tighter fit) as the solid lubricant will fill in the excessive clearances caused by wear. In these cases, fuel efficiency gains could be as high as 20%. Newer engines treated with MotorSilk® can expect between 5 to 10% better fuel mileage and more importantly will maintain a higher mechanical efficiency over hundreds of thousands of miles of driving due to the superior wear protection MotorSilk® provides. (Most gain 2-4 MPG) 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
