Frequently Asked Questions

For the initial treatment use 5 ounces of Force per 10 gallons in your gas tank and 1 ounce per quart in your oil tank. After the initial treatment use 1 ounce of Force per 10 gallons in your gas tank. No additional Force is needed in your oil after the initial treatment (except after oil changes). Let our usage calculator figure it our for you.

No, Force Fuel & Engine Conditioner is not an additive. EPA registered additives are derived from petroleum. In contrast, Force is non-toxic, non-hazardous, and not derived from petroleum. Force Fuel & cleans and lubricates the internal parts of the engine allowing the engine to burn fuel more efficiently thereby reducing emissions.

The quality of diesel fuel can vary from one shipment to another, one gas station to another and from one geographic region to another. The three things that vary the most in diesel fuel are cetane, weight and viscosity.

Cetane is defined as the susceptibility of the fuel to self ignite. Force helps diesel fuel to ignite, even when the diesel fuel contains less than optimal amounts of cetane.

The weight of the fuel or specific gravity plays a major role in the heat content of the fuel. Number 1 fuel is a "lighter" grade while number 2 is "heavier" (weighs more per gallon). While the lighter fuel (#1) has a lower "cloud point" and may provide better starting in cold temperatures, the heavier fuel (#2) has better lubricating qualities and actually contains more heat units (BTU's) per volume. Force can help make lower quality fuel act like higher quality fuel, which increases gas mileage.

The third aspect of fuel to consider is viscosity. Since "lighter" (#1) fuel is less dense, when it is heated it becomes thinner than the heavier #2 fuel. When this "thinning" occurs more fuel begins to leak through the high pressure parts of the injection pump which causes the injection pump to pump less fuel. As the fuel temperature continues to increase, more fuel is lost through leakage and the result is a 1%-7% loss of power. Again, treating your diesel fuel with Force minimizes this issue.

Force lowers maintenance costs in several ways. First, it cleans and lubricates all of the internal parts of the engine for longer life. Second, it increases the life expectancy of fuel injection systems by as much as 25% by minimizing the damage of low sulfur fuel.

Force has been used on thousands of vehicles, from Indy race cars to tractor trailer trucks to cross-country tour buses to mini-vans. Every bottle of our product includes a one million dollar per vehicle liability insurance policy. View the Certificate of Insurance.

We look at every raw material going into Force with techniques such as gas chromatography. Ash and viscosity is tested. The product is then tested post production to ensure the formulation meets our strict quality standards.

All the effects are positive. The process of cleaning and lubricating the engine has significant long-term benefits.

There is no effect. The catalytic converter's role is to convert unspent fuel into carbon dioxide. Force is already performing that function. Heavy metals would have a negative effect on the catalytic converter. That is precisely why we perform the ash test, which is designed to identify heavy metals. We have tested Force down to the limits of the instrument, and there is simply no ash.

Since Force must be registered with the EPA, it must pass strict guidelines relating to how it performs inside your engine. In addition, every bottle of Force is backed by strong liability insurance. View the Certificate of Insurance.

Force is EPA registered as required by law. The EPA does not certify or endorse any products.
