Tercel,
We run both gasoline and diesel trucks on the TK-7SCF series and have since 2000. No I don't make it. I just let people know what my experiences have been because IT WORKS. I know Brian @ BND Automotive (440-821-9040) through experience from other people and on my own ofcourse. In the Gasoline vans, we have seen around 12% increase in fuel mileage, they pull harder, don't have to lug up and down hills with all the weight in them (1500-2000 lbs) and in most cases, they don't even have to downshift out of overdrive for hills. The technicians have pulled injectors in the vehicles, and have found them to be squeaky clean, and none of the seals or fuel components are affected by this product at all. One test a technician did before we started to use the product was to soak neoprene and Buna-N seals in the product for 3 weeks to make sure that it didn't attack seals. We mic'd the seals after the test and found them to be just like we put them in so that made us feel better about proceeding. A scope of the engine internals found them to be like brand new continuously regardless of miles. We don't have a problem with any of the fuel distribution pumps, and our Aim's tests (EXHAUST PIPE MANDATORY TESTS) have shown that the Hydrocarbon, Carbon Monoxide emissions have dropped about 1/2. One of the vehicles they had to run on the machine for 5 minutes and try the test again. We asked why, and they said they were trying to find some carbon monoxide, because "every vehicle gives that off". This particular vehicle showed 0 in both tests, and they finally passed it while scratching their heads. Diesel has seen very simular results, except a gain of 14-16% in that area. Both products have an ignition improver that allow you to burn 14% more of your fuel per fuel charge so you get better faster starts even in cold weather, and in diesel, no smoke. I look at the cost this way. GEO has negotiated to get all truck owners a special discount (call Brian and mention Geo's discount) and with that discount it is more than economical even in gasoline.
Example: 35 gallon tank 14 mpg average. This makes it 490 miles cruising range. 12% means 1.68 miles per gallon more with the TK-7SCF. 1.68 x 35 = 58.8 or 59 miles more. 59 miles divided by 14 mpg = 4.21 gallons saved with the old mileage being 14 and the new mileage being 15.68. 4.21 x 1.79 (87 Octane) = 7.54 saved. Cost of the product is 3.67 per tank of 35 gallons. 7.54 - 3.67 = 3.87 saved. This is what you can put down in comparative numbers. However things we have also verified with continued use is virtually no cylinder and bore wear. Stems and guides have no wear. No injector cleans or replacements, and it has cut my emissions in half so we are environment friendly! So, if you drive 1000 miles per day and have 10 gasoline vans each going 100 miles per day each van would use 7.14 gallons in 100 miles or 71.4 gallons that day. Using TK-7SCF in Gasoline you would save 8.57 gallons or 15.34 (8.57 x 1.79) dollars in fuel per day x 350 days a year = 5369.11 - the cost of the product for the year of 2628.50 would still net you 2740.61. (By the way, the cost of the product would cost you 7.51 to treat that 71.4 gallons.) Any product that pays for itself and then proceeds to give me 2500.00+ per year savings on fuel and no breakdowns is great for a fleet owner as you know so YES, IT IS WELL WORTH IT.
