Gasoline prices have gone through the roof, and there is little relief in sight. As a result, everyone is feeling the pinch at the pump. Although some people are able to drive less in order to save gas, and others are able to trade in their vehicles for more fuel efficient models, many of us must drive in order to get to work and aren't in a position to get a new car.
The Source of the Problem
While there are fuel additives on the market that promise to extend gas mileage, the recurring cost of those additives means that they don't result in significant savings. To really save gas, we need to take a step back, look at internal combustion engines, and examine ways we can make improvements at the source of the problem.
What's the problem? Car engines are inherently inefficient. In fact, the U.S. Department of Energy has found that only about 15 percent of the energy in gas is actually used to power our cars. Much of the rest of the energy is expended by the engine and drive train's moving parts. Oil acts as a lubricant for some of the moving parts, but it's insufficient to increase MPG, or miles per gallon, of fuel.
Solutions from Science
One of the best solutions comes from metal technology, in the form of a dry lubricant that coats vehicles' moving parts in order to reduce friction. Once friction has been reduced, a greater percentage of the car's gas is used to move the car down the road. In other words, we get better engine performance, more power, and increase MPG at the same time. And, because there is less friction, this dry lubricant extends the life of the engine and decreases the need for maintenance repairs.
Perhaps the best news of all is that the film that is deposited on metal parts will last for the lifetime of the vehicle. In other words, we only have to use the product once in order to experience years of savings. In addition, vehicles don't need to be taken to a facility in order to use the product. Essentially, installing this dry lubricant is a three-step process. First, you have to drive for about ten minutes to get the engine to its normal running temperature. Then, you pour in the correct amount of the product (as determined by engine type and size) into the fuel tank and the oil supply. Any excess will be flushed away at your next oil change. Finally, you drive your car for about 20 minutes more in order for the material to embed into the steel surfaces and coat the moving parts. That's it!
Environmental Impact
Not only will this one-time treatment save gas and enhance engine performance, but it will also result in less emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency published data saying that this type of engine protection decreases hydrocarbon emissions by almost 25 percent, carbon monoxide emissions by almost 44 percent, and nitrous oxide emissions by over 21 percent.
Given the global concern about the effect of greenhouse gases on the environment, using a product that will save gas, result in less emissions, and extend the life of an engine is both responsible and economical.
