| Omega 991 DESCRIPTION: Omega 991 Lead-Free Valve Protectant is engineered to protect engines against exhaust valve seat wear that is increasingly prevalent in engines due to the increasing popularity of low-lead or unleaded gasoline (petrol). Omega 991 is completely free of lead, but due to its innovative organic chemistry, provides fully the protection of leaded gasoline to treated engines. BACKGROUND TO LEAD CONTENT IN GASOLINE: In the 1930's, engineers discovered that adding lead to gasoline was a low cost means of increasing the octane level. By adding lead and making high octane gasoline widely-available at an economical price, engineers were spurred on to designing higher compression engines. This, in turn increased engine power output and engine efficiency. Lead also protects the exhaust valve seats. However, as the worldwide popularity and use of vehicles multiplied over the ensuing decades, health authorities and environmentalists discovered proof that the high lead content of exhaust emissions was a serious health risk. In 1985, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) introduced rules to limit the lead content of leaded gasoline. Many other countries have since followed suit and unleaded is the ultimate goal in many industrialized countries. By January 1988, all gasoline suppliers had to limit the lead content to 0.1 gram of lead per gallon and the EPA is considering a complete ban on the use of lead in gasoline. The effects of low-or no-lead gasolines on engines was considered as early as 1970, when auto manufacturers started using catalytic converters (which require unleaded fuel to perform properly). In numerous tests carried out on the effects of low or no-lead fuel, it was found that exhaust valve seats in vehicles not designed to run on such fuels were suffering from serious exhaust valve recession problems. In controlled laboratory tests, engines with cast iron exhaust valve inserts running on low lead gasoline suffered 0.0384" and 0.0644" valve seat recession in 20 hours and 40 hours respectively. Should these engines have been run with unleaded gasoline, the results would have been disastrous. OMEGA 991 LEAD-FREE VALVE PROTECTANT: This product gives engines the protection of leaded gasoline, but without the environmental and detrimental impact of lead. Its organic chemistry is fully environment-and ecology-friendly. In addition, Omega 991 will not damage emission control devices, such as catalytic converters. Omega 991 contains absolutely no dangerous chemicals harmful to engine parts, even including electronic sensors and devices. In addition, the product will reduce carburetor deposits by cleaning up and maintaining cleanliness, and reduce intake valve and port deposits. It is estimated that over 20 million vehicles are in imminent danger or suffering exhaust valve wear, either as a direct result of the introduction of low lead or unleaded fuel. APPLICATION: The Omega Manufacturing Division introduces a handy new applicator for Omega 991, with an offset neck of extended length, which enables users to introduce the product easily into the gasoline tank, without wasteful spillage. In addition, the cap also features a special screw mechanism which is only opened by squeezing the cap body twisting at the same time. This helps eliminate leakage. Add Omega 991 with each gasoline refill in the following proportions: ECONOMY (COMPACT) CARS : 150 ml (half a bottle) AVERAGE (SEDAN) CARS : 300 ml (full bottle) OTHERS : 4 ml per litre (1/2 oz. per gallon) * Omega 991 is also suitable for extremely low sulfur diesel fuel with recommended dosage : 4 ml per litre (1/2 oz. per gallon) for each diesel refill. | ||||||||||||||||||||
