Re: Meng, discuss your 'products' HERE !!
Dear Meng,
Let me try to help you here. Let's take one of the product that you are trying to market here i.e. fuel economy improvement aids.
I have been doing some readings...
Fuel economy improvement aids that work are specific mechanical and chemical products that pack more punch, or restrict air and fuel amounts going into the combustion process. Or they restore and improve specific movement-efficiencies - all of which increase fuel economy.
According to George Christ, one of America's Experts in the use of automotive additives, these are five most successful Fuel improving methods:
An "economy cam" limits the fuel intake cycle duration and limits fuel "waste-duration" periods. Most people prefer the cam that came with their engine because the "waste factor" provides a reserve to provide snappier performance when needed.
You can have greater fuel economy with an "economy cam," and no reserve power as the option for fuel saving, or you can have a bit more reserved power - or, a lot more power out put - with a "racing cam," where fuel economy improvement is given up for, more power, but not both options - with a different cam style.
How cleaning and reducing friction drag in your transmission improves fuel economy.
In transmissions, detergent cleaning products with friction modifiers perform the two actions needed to restore and maintain the exact shift point.
If a gearshift occurs; say, two seconds, instead of one second before, or after peak horsepower development - due to dirty fluid, and dirty, sticky conditions, and friction, there is less than ideal or full torque available to propel you forward, and lower speed occurs.
If the shift develops before the peak time - caused by a dirty, laboring engine speed, your car or truck weight - having lost a bit of momentum, becomes a negative drag, and this drops power even lower, lowering vehicle speed. An improper shift is doubling the weight the engine must move - and those conditions bogs down the power output of the motor.
Out-of-time, rough shift, and slippage problems miss maximum torque-ing of the gears, lowering speed, causing more fuel usage to reach full speed.
How do you make sure your transmission is timed to the peak power output at any given gear shift? Clean and friction modify your transmission with products labeled to do both.
Friction drag [requires more fuel to overcome] and dirty engine and transmission conditions [rob power away from the wheels] or [reduces full power development, as describe above] waste fuel. Clean and correct all such dirty, friction increasing conditions, and you improve fuel economy - by restoring the exact shift time for the easiest and best forward momentum.
Here is how they become a fuel economy improver.
Friction modifiers work in two ways. One-way is to smooth wear roughen surfaces - thus reducing drag. Less drag, less fuel-wasting characteristics.
Another kind of friction modifier "coats worn areas" - which fill worn spaces, seal combustion from escaping - called blowby, and also permits slipperier movement. This is a fuel economy improvement aid because you have improve fuel wasting conditions, and released absorbed power. Both help to kick up speed levels. Backing off on the gas pedal to drop increased speed is a fuel saving advantage. Two companies are known to have these special motor, transmission, fuel economy improvers, friction modifiers of worth.*
Any product not falling within these specific five categories cannot improve fuel economy.
Which one of the above does your product belong to?
