INCREASE IN FUEL ECONOMY USING MILITEC OIL ADDITIVE

IT TURNS OUT THAT THE TELEPHONE NUMBER I HAVE RECORDED FOR YOUR OFFICE IS A FAX NUMBER. I TRUST THAT IT IS YOUR FAX NUMBER.

BECAUSE OF THE WAY OUR FUEL USAGE IS RECORDED AND THE FACT THAT SOME STAFF USE VEHICLE CARDS FOR FUELLING OTHER MOTORIZED EQUIPMENT (OUTBOARD, SNOWMOBILE) I HAVE HAD SOME PROBLEMS GETTING CLEAR AND RELIABLE EVALUATIONS IN SOME CASES.

ONE VEHICLE FOR WHICH I DID MANAGE TO GET SOLID DATA IS OUR STAFF CAR AND I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN THAT ONE AS IT IS AN EX-OPP CRUISER, PULLED FROM THE AUCTION BLOCK AFTER IT WAS REMOVED FROM POLICE SERVICE.

MILITEC WAS ADDED TO BOTH ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION (8 OZ AND 6 OZ RESPECTIVELY). POST APPLICATION CALCULATIONS WERE DONE WITH DATA FROM ABOUT 3900 KM OF USE IN MARCH AND APRIL.

1991 CHEVROLET CAPRICE FOUR DOOR SEDAN
