Fuel Consumption Comparison
Diesel Railway Locomotives with 12 cylinder 710 EMD Prime Mover and Caterpillar 3412 HEP Engines Independent Testing using the AAR-RP-503 testing protocol conducted by Engine Systems Development Centre Montreal, Canada.
| Fuel Savings depending on Load & Throttle settings ranged from | 2.8% to 7.8% |
Comments:
"GO Transit Rail Equipment normally do not entertain the use of fuel additives on our locomotives because they usually have not undergone appropriate testing at a recognized testing facility using the AAR-RP-503 testing protocol and none are recommended by original manufactures of the locomotive or diesel engines. When approached by FPC about six years ago we noted that their product had been tested by the South West Research Centre using the AAR-RP-503 testing protocol and, results indicated fuel savings in the single digit percentage range with no damage to engine components. Also, internal engine parts had less accumulation of carbon deposits resulting from the use of FPC."

Exhaust Smoke Reductions and Fuel Efficiency Gain Estimates
24 metre Twin Diesel Catamaran operating of the south coast of Australia.
| Fuel Efficiency Gain Estimate. | 5% to 8% |
| Exhaust Smoke Reduction | 16.0% |
Comments:
"FTC/FPC Combustion Catalyst is the only fuel chemical yet proven by the worlds leading testing authority, SouthWest Research Institute (SwRI), Texas, USA, to improve fuel efficiency by promoting a faster and more complete combustion. SwRI also determined that FTC does not alter the physical or chemical properties of diesel fuel.
SwRI also determined, using the Caterpillar IG2 Test (ASTM 509A) that there are no detrimental effects that could cause increased wear or deposits following FTC treatment of fuel.
These findings have been verified by countless field studies in diverse applications which have confirmed efficiency benefits of 3% to 8%.
Maintenance Benefits documented include reduced oil wear metal profiles and reduced soot. Combustion and exhaust spaces become essentially free of any hard carbon with continuous catalyst use.
