Bio-Fuel History
1980 Oxygenated Fuel MTBE
(methyl tertiary-butyl ether)
1990 Clean Air Act Amendments
Energy Policy Act of 2005
4 billion gallons by 2006
6.1 billion gallons by 2009
7.5 billion gallons by 2012
Energy Policy Act of 2005
Increases the amount of biofuel (usually ethanol) that must be mixed with gasoline sold in the United States to 4 billion gallons by 2006, 6.1 billion gallons by 2009 and 7.5 billion gallons by 2012;[1]

3. EPA Approves E-15
Energy Independence & Security Act of bio-fuel requirement
12.95 Billion gallon 2010
36 Billion gallon 2022
2010 E-15 gasoline approved for 2001 and newer cars and light trucks
70 to 80% of all vehicles on the road
E-20 a possibility???
B-20 a possibility???
EPA E-15 Mock-up Warning Label

4. EPA Diesel Fuel Legislation
The cleaner diesel fuel program
reduces sulfur content,
Provides immediate health benefits
allows engine manufacturers to begin using advanced emissions control systems that further reduce harmful emissions.
The diesel program regulations are located in 40 CFR Part 80 subpart I.
Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) is 15 parts per million (ppm) sulfur specification
Phased in for highway diesel fuel from
Emissions will be reduced by more than 90%.
Diesel engines equipped with advanced emission control devices (generally, 2007 and later model years) must use highway ULSD fuel.
Low sulfur (500 ppm) and Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel will be phased in for non-road, locomotive, and marine (NRLM) engines from These fuel requirements, coupled with advanced emission control technologies, will decrease

5. Ethanol Issues

6. Why Is Ethanol So Bad? Deteriorates rubber, plastic& fiberglass
Attracts Water
Causes gasoline to prematurely decompose

7. Ethanol Damage
Damaged plastic and rubber fuel system components, particularly in older power equipment not designed to tolerate ethanol.
The primer line & return lines are brittle causing fuel to leak and the fuel lines to disintegrate form ethanol

8. Ethanol Phase Separation
Severe phase separation creating the severe corrosion
This carburetor must be replaced

9. Engine Failure from Varnished / Stale Fuel
Engine ran on marginal fuel
Hard to start
Low power.
Gummed all of the internal components
Sticking the rings

10. Phase Separation Damage
Phase Separated gasoline
Bottom clear layer is mostly ethanol
Piston seized running on the phase separated fuel to the left

11. Diesel Issues

12. Problems With Modern Diesel Fuels
Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel % less sulfur
Reduced lubrication
Higher amounts of water
Cold weather freezing
Clogged fuel injectors
Damaged injector pumps

13. Symptoms of Contaminated Fuel
If you have experienced the following issues, chances are they are caused by contaminated fuel.
Frequent diesel particulate filter (DPF) burns
Clogged and slimy filters
Dark, hazy fuel
Sludge build up in tanks
Loss of power and rpm
Excess smoke
Corroded, pitted injectors
Turbo trouble
Injector pump failure

14. Water Creates Microbe Growth
Poor Fuel Efficiency

15. Diesel Contamination Types
Diesel bug
Bacteria
Mold
Yeast

16. Diesel Contamination Types
Biofilms
Asphaltines
Gums and other organic contaminants
Wax
Sludge
Other particles

17. USLD = Year Round Maintenance
Clogged
NEW
Fuel Filter on the left clogged in only 10,000 miles

18. Clogged Diesel Particulate Filter
Clean
If not attended to the DPF will need to be removed and cleaned
EXPENSIVE PROCESS!

19. Exhaust Gas Recirculation
(EGR) valves are part of the emissions system
The purpose of the EGR is to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.
“Dirty” exhaust will prevent the EGR from operating properly
The EGR can be stuck in any position which will affect how efficiently the fuel will burn
By using Diesel Mechanic in a Bottle, the fuel will burn cleaner thus keeping the EGR valve working properly for a longer period of time.

20. Bio-Diesel Blend Facts
5-7% Less BTU
Biodegradable
Prone to fuel fouling
Absorbs 10 X more water
Corrodes fuel system components
Harmful to rubber and plastic
Acts as a solvent
Gelling in cold weather

21. Failures Due to Marginal Fuel=
Manufactures will deny engine/fuel related warranty claims if the engine was ran on marginal fuel
USE Ethanol Shield to Prevent and MIB to repair marginal fuel and repair shops utilize Professional Strength MIB for speedy non-invasive repair INCREASE Productivity increasing =

22. PREVENT

23. Multi Purpose Ethanol Fuel Stabilizer
Remove water to prevent Phase Separation
Protect the rubber & plastic components from ethanol
Stabilize the gasoline to ensure quick starting and prevent stale fuel
Synthetic, not made from petroleum distillates
Good for all typed of fuel systems (carb, Fuel injection)
Will not harm any plastic, rubber, fiberglass, foam or gasket materials

24. Burn Test
X Y Z
Most competitor’s products burn incompletely and erratically
Ethanol Shield burns clean and vaporizes the termolecular hydrogen bonded water molecule
After burning, a synthetic lubricant is left to lubricate the combustion chamber components

25. Rubber Conditioners PIC Protected! “Extreme Testing E-85”
Not Protected

26. Extreme Protection! Protected! ½ E-85 ½ Water Over 1 Year in solution
Not Protected

27. Testing
Non Ethanol Shield has carbon build up at 38 hours, theoretically 50 hours should have more carbon build up
Ethanol Shield unit kept the exhaust port clear at 50 hours

28. Revitalize old fuel and delicate fuel system components safely
Fuel System Fix All
Fix the fuel system & deep clean the carburetor without removal, even on non-running engines
Revitalize old fuel and delicate fuel system components safely
Cleanse power robbing carbon deposits from the engine’s internal components

29. After
Before

30. 1983 Chipper Gasket Revitalization
Bowl Drain Gasket
Bowl Gasket “O” Ring
The brittle and dried out rubber components were unharmed from Mechanic in a Bottle.
The rubber conditioners in Mechanic In A Bottle revitalized them returning them to their original shape.
These original rubber components were rejuvenated by the MIB! Before the test they were hard and dried out.

31. Fix the fuel system by cleaning it thoroughly and rejuvenating the delicate components
Protect & Prevent the fuel system from algae growth & remove water to prevent damage
Stabilize the fuel from decaying in storage & prevent gelling in cold weather

32. Replaces lost lubrication from ULSD
Increases Cetane by 2-3 points
Reducing emissions
High Temperature Detergent
Upper cylinder lubricity
Replaces lost lubrication from ULSD
Water encapsulation
Fuel Stabilization
Corrosion protection
Does NOT Contain Petroleum Distillates

33. Diesel Burn Test
Tar Like Deposits
Synthetic Lubricant! A B

36. FUEL HYGIENE Where does fuel hygiene start? It starts by knowing….
Use fresh fuel
Purchase from a reputable source
Use a fuel additive to protect your fuel system & extend the life of the fuel
Test your fuel
Water / fuel clarity
Bio-Diesel
Acid
