Q: What Is\u00a0FuelFX-ALT?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0FuelFX-ALT is a proprietary lubricant\u00a0additive that reduces friction\u00a0and wear and reinforces the additive systems of any lubricant.\u00a0ALT fortifies the additive system of any oil and also increases the amount of film strength of that lubricant while creating a complex chemical reaxction with the metallic wearing surfaces. It does not adversely affect or harm existing additive systems or the equipment where it is used.<\/p>\n

Q: Why Use\u00a0ALT?
\nA:<\/strong> When lubricants are used, they become contaminated with acids, dirt, carbon, water and many other compounds, and wear out quickly.\u00a0ALT reinforces the additives in your lubricants for better protection and longer useful life.\u00a0ALT’s patent pending technology quickly\u00a0increases the film strength of lubricants, allowing more power and virtually eliminates friction, resulting in less wear on expensive equipment.<\/p>\n

Q: How does\u00a0ALT improve engine performance?
\nA:<\/strong> When used in gasoline or diesel engines,\u00a0ALT reduces the formation of harmful deposits throughout the engine, improves film strength, reduces friction, and provides extreme pressure protection.\u00a0ALT provides these features in all\u00a0metal lubricating applications , and succeeds where other lubricants and additives cannot.<\/p>\n

Q: Can I use\u00a0ALT products in regular cars and trucks?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes, by all\u00a0means.\u00a0 As with all FuelFX products, ALT is formulated to provide superior performance to all applications.\u00a0 ALT\u00a0will increase fuel mileage and reduce wear in both diesel and gasoline engines, or wherever they are used.<\/p>\n

Q: Where is\u00a0ALT used?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0ALT may be used in automatic transmissions, both gas and diesel engines, outboard motors, gear boxes, speed reducers, hydrostatic drives, differentials, manual transmissions, final drives,\u00a0transfer cases, heavy equipment , power tools , weapons, fishing reels, and the list goes on. Follow the label directions to add ALT to any lubricating application.<\/p>\n

Q: Is ALT\u00a0cost effective?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0ALT costs less than\u00a0any other product we have tested. When used\u00a0as an additive with other\u00a0lubricants,\u00a0ALT will extend the operating life of the lubricant and the machinery it is used in, reducing wear and tear and unnecessary maintenance.<\/p>\n

Q: \u00a0What are the correct\u00a0use ratios for\u00a0ALT?
\nA:<\/strong> Please refer to the ALT data sheet or the product label for the various suggested uses and rates.<\/p>\n

Q: Can I use\u00a0all of my\u00a0vehicles and equipment?
\nA:<\/strong> Absolutely!\u00a0ALT was specifically formulated for use in\u00a0all internal combustion engines. From large diesel to small, hard working 4-stroke engines. ALT is ideal for 4-cycle snowmobiles, ATV’s, personal watercraft, 4-stroke boat motors, lawn equipment,\u00a0\u00a0etc…<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0Can I use\u00a0ALT in my car or truck?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0YES.\u00a0ALT can be used in any gasoline or diesel 4-stroke automobile engine.<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0How long has\u00a0 been on the market?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0ALT was\u00a0introduced\u00a0in the\u00a0late 1980’s<\/p>\n

Q: Can\u00a0ALT be used in any engine?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes…ALT may be used in any mechanically sound gasoline or diesel fueled engine.\u00a0This means, basically, that\u00a0ALT is\u00a0excellent for use in any vehicle\u2019s engine.<\/p>\n

Q: Will\u00a0ALT void the warranty of a new vehicle?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0Absolutely not! Manufacturers\u2019 warranties are based upon the use of oils meeting specific API Service Classifications. ALT is an additive and does not affect the manufacturer\u2019s warranty.<\/p>\n

Q: Can I use ALT in all Seasons?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0 ALT adds many benefits to motor oils and other equipment lubricants.\u00a0ALT is\u00a0made to protect and perform better than petroleum oils at both high and low temperature extremes.\u00a0ALT provides ready lubrication\u00a0at extremely low temperatures for easier winter starting and significantly reduced engine wear. At high temperatures, no conventional motor oil can compare to the overall protection\u00a0that ALT\u00a0provides.<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0Will using\u00a0ALT increase gas mileage?
\nA:<\/strong> Yes. Independent studies have shown the use of ALT to increase fuel mileage while improving overall performance as well.<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0\u00a0Is ALT\u00a0compatible with\u00a0all motor oils?
\nA:<\/strong> Yes.\u00a0ALT is compatible with\u00a0both synthetic or petroleum motor oils.<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0Will the use of ALT extend oil-\u00a0drain intervals?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0 ALT is highly resistant to the destructive effects of heat, and does not break down like petroleum oils. This means that\u00a0the use of ALT in your motor oil can provide much longer drain intervals than conventional lubricants.<\/p>\n

Q: Will ALT\u00a0decrease oil consumption?
\nA:<\/strong> Yes. When used in mechanically sound engines,\u00a0ALT can reduce oil consumption.<\/p>\n

Q:\u00a0 Is there a recommended procedure for\u00a0adding ALT?
\nA:<\/strong>\u00a0 ALT can be added anytime to your engines oil, however; for peak performance, you should add ALT at the next oil and filter change , and follow the directions on the product label.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
