FAQ's

Q: What Is A Catalyst?
A. A catalyst is a substance that either accelerates or retards a chemical reaction, but one which in and of itself undergoes no permanent change.

Q: How Does Enviro-Max Plus (EMP) Work?
A. When EnviroMax Plus is added to your fuel as a catalyst, your fuel undergoes a chemical change. It actually oxygenates your fuel, allowing it to burn more completely. The fuel combustion in your engine also occurs at lower temperature. When your fuel burns better, the result is reduced emissions and increased horsepower. This improved burning of your fuel will prevent carbon deposit build-up in the combustion chamber of an engine, and actually causes the removal of existing deposits of carbon. Many people will notice their Spark Plugs will be cleaner and last longer. By producing less carbon in your engine, your oil will also stay cleaner longer. Cleaner Spark Plugs and Cleaner Oil will result in a significant reduction in tune-ups and oil changes.

Q: What type of Fuels can EnviroMax Plus be used with?
A. EMP can be used with Gasoline, Diesel, RFG, Biodiesel, Heating Oil, and Propane. Follow the same recommendations for dosage regardless of the type of fuel you are using. See the EnviroMax Plus Instructions document.
*EMP is not recommended in Aviation or Racing fuels.

Q. What type of Engines will EMP work in?
A. EMP works in all engines that use Petroleum based fuels including gas and Diesel engines in cars, trucks, and in major factories. EMP also works in RV's, Motorcycles, Boats, Tractors, Lawnmowers, Chainsaws, Generators, Snowmobiles, Snowblowers, Garden Tools, Oil based furnaces, and more. *EnviroMax Plus has not been tested, nor is or recommended for use with Aviation Fuel or Racing Fuel.

Q: What if I am not seeing Fuel Economy Results?
These instructions and tips should help you optimize your results with EnviroMax Plus. Most people who follow the directions below will see optimal results within 3 bottles of use. Please follow these directions before making your evaluation of EnviroMax Plus.

Bottle # 1 >> 1 oz to 5 Gallons . . this will start to clean our the old unburned carbons in your engine. This takes time, so please be patient.
Bottle # 2 >> 1 oz to 10 Gallons . . . this should begin to produce fuel economy results. If you are not satisfied with the results after the 2nd bottle, or you would like to see if you can improve your results, go to the next dosage below.
Bottle # 3 >> 1 oz to 15 Gallons . . . many times it is necessary to reduce to this dosage to get optimal fuel economy results. If you fuel economy drops at this dosage, return to 1 oz to 10 gallons

** If you have already completed the first bottle or more at 1 oz to 5 gallons, proceed to 1 oz to 10 gallons. If you already have tried 1 oz to 5 gallons, and 1 oz to 10 gallons for an entire bottle at each dosage, proceed to 1 oz to 15 gallons for a complete bottle.

Many people make the mistake of using too much EnviroMax Plus, and not understanding that they need to reduce to maintenance dosage after the initial bottle.

Please consider trying this program, we believe when you find the right dosage for your vehicle, you will be thrilled with the results. At 1 oz to 10 gallons, you only need a 4% increase in fuel economy to return 100% of your investment in EnviroMax Plus. If you are getting 15 mpg, you only need to increase to 15.6.

Another factor that many people don't consider, is that you may not be able to notice a 4% increase in fuel economy. The only way you can truly measure this type of increase is to measure your total miles you obtain on a full tank of gas. Example, if you get 300 miles to a tank at 15mpg, you only need to get 312 miles out of a tank, for EnviroMax Plus to be Free to use. Again, many people don't do an accurate measurement, thus they miss the increase in fuel economy that is not noticeable by simply looking at the fuel gauge.

Many people see results when they actually stop using EnviroMax Plus for 1-2 tankfuls. They notice that their mileage drops, and maybe their car or truck doesn't run with the same pep, after they stop using EnviroMax Plus. This may be something you want to try. Drive 1-2 tankfuls without EnviroMax Plus. Measure your total mileage on the 2nd tankful, then you will have a good measurement when you resume EnviroMax Plus.

Probably the most common mistake we see, is people think that the first bottle is going to produce significant noticeable results. As explained above, this is not a fair expectation, especially when your engine has unburned carbons that will need time to be eliminated.

Another benefit most people don't realize is the money you will save with a cleaner engine. If you change your oil 3 times a year, we believe you can reduce this in half. By reducing oil changes by 50%, you will return your investment on 2 bottles of EnviroMax Plus just on the oil change savings.

Add to all this, that you are doing your part to reduce pollution, and we believe that everyone benefits from using EnviroMax Plus.

Q: Why Should I Use EMP?
A. EMP will save you money by reducing fuel consumption and engine maintenance in addition to the positive environmental effects. EMP will assure that your vehicle operates closer to peak performance levels. EMP can also help reduce our dependence on foreign oil because of its unique ability to improve mileage. The world is dependent upon oil for energy. Transportation fuels alone account for approximately 48% of all oil consumption (U.S. Department of Energy). We don't have to look any further than the cost of gas to see that we have a growing problem. A 2% per year reduction in U.S. dependence on foreign oil over a period of 3 to 4 years would translate into a reduction of the importing of oil in the range of 600 billion dollars.

Q: How Often Should I Use EMP?
A. One ounce of EMP should be added to each five gallons of fuel until decarbonization has occurred . . . i.e. your engine is clean. Decarbonization is normally accomplished by the time you run through a fourth tank of fuel with EMP. The recommended maintenance application then becomes one ounce to ten gallons of fuel. Your savings increases significantly when you reach maintenance dosage because you are using less EMP to treat the same amount of fuel.

Q: Should I use EMP differently in the Winter months?
During the winter months, the gas companies ship different fuel mixtures to areas of the country that experience cold winter weather. If you live in such an area, please be aware that this winter fuel mixture may result in lower fuel economy. If your vehicle experiences a loss of previous mileage increase resulting from EnviroMax Plus , it may be due to this winter fuel change. In such a circumstance, the manufacturer recommends that you DECREASE the amount of EnviroMax Plus to 1 ounce to 15 gallons and even 1 ounce to 20 gallons. This should return your mileage increase to previous levels after a few tankfuls. This change should only be made if you experience a loss of previously improved fuel mileage.

Q. Why do some people see varying fuel economy results and should I be concerned?
A. There are hundreds of different blends of fuels across the country and among the different companies. In addition the fuel companies blend different fuel during different seasons. Thus some people see varying fuel economy results from month to month even at times tank to tank. EnviroMax Plus will always improve the efficiency of the burn of the fuel in your engine and will extend engine life and reduce pollution, but fuel economy results can fluctuate.. We encourage you to measure your fuel economy results over a long period of time such as six months or a year. If you measure your results over the course of 1 year, including reduced maintenance, and increased engine life, most people will save more than they will spend on EnviroMax Plus. Therefore we encourage you to continue to use EnviroMax Plus just as you would change your oil and filter . . . to protect your engine and protect your valuable vehicles.

Q: Can I switch to a lower grade (Octane) gas such as regular grade or mid grade when I start using EnviroMax Plus?
A. Most engines that are using premium or mid grade fuel will be able to switch to a lower grade of fuel when using EnviroMax Plus. This will save you even more on fuel costs. If you happen to notice that your engine knocks with a lower grade of fuel even with EnviroMax Plus, switch back to a higher grade of fuel.

Q: Will EnviroMax Plus work in fuels that have ethanol added?
A. EnviroMax Plus will work in fuels that have ethanol in the fuel. Ethanol is typically added to reduce emissions. EnviroMax Plus will clean your engine, increase fuel economy, and further assist in emissions reduction in fuels with Ethanol.

Q: What if I notice the engine light turns on or off when I start using EnviroMax Plus?
A. EnviroMax Plus causes better use of Oxygen with your fuel in the engine combustion chamber. Many vehicles have an Oxygen Sensor that measures this Oxygen level. Due to increases in oxygenation you may see your engine light come on when you start using EnviroMax Plus. Some people may even see this light turn off when using EnviroMax Plus. We recommend you drive your vehicle for at least 4 tankfuls of fuel to allow EnviroMax Plus to clean your engine's combustion chamber. In most cases the Engine Light will turn off. EnviroMax Plus will not solve internal engine problems, thus if you notice performance problems that last more than 600 miles, contact your local service center.

Q: What advantages does EMP have when used with Alternative Fuels such As Biodiesel?
A. When you use BioDiesel, and other alternative fuels, fuel economy and lubricity typically decreases. EMP has demonstrated superior results in increasing fuel economy and lubricity in alternative fuels such as BioDiesel.

Q. How do I store a bottle of EnviroMax Plus in my car?
A. If you are going to store a bottle(s) of EnviroMax Plus in your car, we recommend you store it in your trunk in an upright position, by placing the bottle securely in a small box, such as the shipping box it arrived in. After using EnviroMax Plus, secure the cap tightly and return to your trunk in an upright position.

Q. Can EnviroMax Plus withstand excessive temperatures when being stored?
A. Temperatures over 100 degrees may cause bottle discoloration and loss of seal resulting in leakage. We recommend storage of EnviroMax Plus below
100 degrees. For storage above 100 degrees, such as your trunk in the summer months, we recommend protective covering to contain any potential leakage.

Q: Can one individual make a difference in helping to improve the air we breathe?
A. Absolutely! By using EMP on a regular basis and making sure your vehicle is well maintained, you can make a difference in improving the quality of the air we breathe. The world is beginning to experience a major health crisis due in part to exhaust and other airborne emissions created from the use of fossil fuel. In 1935 the chances of developing the most serious form of skin cancer were 1 in 1500. It is now expected to exceed 1 in 75. It is further predicted that 1.6 million new cases of cataracts and 300,000 new cases of skin cancer will occur before the year 2002 (EPA 1997). The EPA has also estimated that ozone depletion is responsible for approximately 15,000 premature deaths annually, 350,000 cases of aggravated asthma and one million cases of decreased lung function in children. Lung disease is now the #3 killer in the U.S., and more than 30 million Americans live with some type of lung disease. You can make a world of difference by using and telling others about EMP.

Q: Can fuel that is treated with EnviroMax Plus be stored for long periods of time?
A. All gasolines go bad after a certain time limits. EMP does not extend shelf life of gasoline.

Q: Can EnviroMax Plus be stored in a trunk in hot temperatures, or in a garage in cold weather?
A. EMP will freeze in long term extreme cold weather. EMP will swell in the bottle in extreme hot weather.
