Mixing Gasoline: A Crucial Step in Engine Maintenance

When it comes to maintaining an engine, one of the most important steps is mixing gasoline with additives. This may seem like a simple task, but it's crucial for ensuring that your engine runs smoothly and efficiently. The correct mixture can make all the difference in performance, fuel efficiency, and even longevity.

The Basics of Mixing Gasoline

To mix gasoline, you'll need to follow a specific ratio. According to our guest expert, this is 16 to one with water. Pouring 16 ounces of gasoline into a bucket containing 1 ounce of additive will create the perfect blend for your engine. This mixture may seem strange at first, but it's designed to work in harmony with the additives.

Demonstrating the Power of Additives

One of the most impressive aspects of our guest expert's products is their ability to enhance performance. When mixed with gasoline, these additives can make a significant difference in power and fuel efficiency. In one demonstration, our guest expert poured 16 ounces of gasoline into a bucket containing 1 ounce of additive. They then poured 16 "things" (as they put it) of water onto the surface. The result was impressive - as soon as the mixture hit the engine, it came to life. This is just one example of how these additives can work their magic.

The Science Behind Additives

So, what exactly do these additives do? According to our guest expert, they're a combination of detergents and catalysts designed to improve fuel efficiency and performance. They work by breaking down pollutants in the engine, allowing for smoother combustion. The addition of stabilizers also helps to prevent corrosion and wear on moving parts.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwas another episode of Jay Leno's Garage now we're putting the engine back together in my double steam cart well now George you know George Swift he is uh putting the engine together for us I noticed he was using this product here called arch aisle instead of our usual assembly off that we use her assembly grease and I said why and he went into a whole long dissertation and I said as an American company is it made here in the states he said sure so I said all right let's uh let's do a little web shoot on it and find out more about it let's bring in Tim see nganga Tim you're the sales manager national sales manager yes sir the name of the company is arch oil and now George swears by this but you guys know each other yeah so let's find out exactly what's going on here I had not heard of this company tell me about it we're a proactive engineering company that is trying to find solutions to help lower costs of maintenance right repair bills and in today's engines lubrication is not keeping up with a lot of those stuff so we started looking at different ways to lubricate engines gearboxes and what do we have here this is industrial friction modifier do I add this to my oil you add that to your oil too in an engine gearbox transmission differential well when was the last time anybody talked about reducing friction and a transmission or a differential we don't mention that much yeah now is it although it's just is it sort of a teflon like material I know it's probably not Teflon no it's a potassium braid or a boron okay we know boron is real hard and real slippery okay so use boron in an engine you can reduce friction dramatically okay now see I didn't know that I didn't know boron was real slippery I thought that was 20 Mule Team boring wash your hands but I had no idea what else I mean I know boron is one of the elements but now we're talking chemistry and science and I'm totally lost so what is so you would add the 8 quart oil change you would add how much of this 1 point 2 ounces per quart at one point 2 ounces per quart okay so it's so typical car we put about six seven oh six seven ounces okay now does it work like ZD DP is it that type of deal no zinc is a is a lubricant we've used it for long right but think has some negative effects to in an engine or on ism slip rare and a much more inert oh so if I have flat tappet cam type engine with this replace we could use that as a replacement yeah oh I see okay really do that with our pre assembly lube and with our 90 100 friction modifier see all the cars that have the flat tappet camps the old oils used to have zinc in it which act as a softener for lack of a better word when the cams pounds again so consequently when use modern oils they're too thin and the cams just God I know guys with cams are worn out in 2500 miles the car just loses power you can't figure out what's going on well it's wearing the Med wall so this would actually replace that yeah okay it's called a solid boundary lubricant right so we lay down a boundary on both metal surfaces that are solid and it works with any oil synthetic or straight weight or mineral anything doesn't matter we use it on 600 weight really we use it on 5w 2000 use it on anything the oil becomes the carrier for our product to the surface we're basically an additive package I say we have a couple of different products this is a tungsten disulfide grease okay and tungsten disulfide is also a real slippery and one of the things that they look at with grease is what is the washout rate you know of grease in a bushing right and a lot of grease has have a washout rate between three five seven nine percent the washout rate on our grease is 0.5 percent which means we stay there right for a really long period of time very good now this is one that we were really interested in because here in California and like the rest of United States gasoline is terrible he's compared to what it was when I was a kid with Sunoco 260 and all the cab right oh that's not all the good stuff you could buy now it's got ethanol in it and water and every other thing I mean here at the shop we've had gas go bad in as little as two or three months and what happens is especially in older cars he eats up the fuel pumps the ethanol eats the rubber I mean it's terrible this can help fight that is this a stabilizer this is a stabilizer and say lubricant mm-hmm it's a detergent mm-hmm it's got a catalyst in it so it helps fuel burn a little bit better freshener in it it was developed by Bell Labs they had a real problem with their standby generation equipment right and 80% of all generator failures are caused by poor fuel okay so the president laughs said you guys figure out some way to make these engines start and they came up with the formula so grandmas who do canning and they yeah and they put the package over here yeah so if you have a 20 gallon gas tank you put in what an ounce or two like that quarter of an ounce treats 80 gallons of fuel well so what we do is we recommend that you double treat it the first tank right and then do a maintenance load which is okay what do we have here what kind of demonstration this is old fuel okay that we treat it that we treated with our 6200 right and what happens is as fuel deteriorates it gets varnished and the volatility goes down that's what combustion suffers you get a lot more carbon you know there is no more dramatic example it's an old Stanley Steemer because what the Stanley Steamer does it heats the gas into a vapor and then it fires the vapor into the into the chamber where the fire has in it ignites well the gas had broken down so much it wouldn't even yeah it was almost like you're putting water vapor yeah it was that unveil it as a better that's such a word and this will stabilize it this will stabilize it and bring back its volatility okay now I'm gonna pour this on a shirt and throw a match to the homecare fire and then I'll do it with this and now it just exploded he will explode just like that what do we have here rust remover this is a biodegradable acid neutral rust remover okay it's called our AR 5100 you mix it 16 to one with water and put it in a bucket and you pour 16 things of water and you stick the crank in and this is what this crank look like before we stuck it in it okay now you say 1601 now if you're a like me and go in if I go straight on it should really be powerful but you have not mix it with water yeah and that works through yeah if you if you come down and do 12 13 or 14 it's fine but I think below that you won't it won't work at all oh okay okay very good so obviously you treated this half of the crank enough to yep very good okay well it's interesting and you guys an American company yeah which is important to us and it's a small company and like we like to do that here at the website we like to help out small companies that are trying to get a foothold in the automotive industry especially when the stuff is made in America by Americans how much of an ounce 20 gallons about a quarter of about a quarter okay so this is basically a lifetime supply at 640 Islands this is six hundred and forty gallons so that's that's a lot of bulk storage yeah that's a year's work yeah especially if you have a generator at home because I have one at home and the last time the power went out but I hadn't used it like three years how about sauron matches down it I can't get anything there just nothing just nothing so this is going in my generator we'll give it a shot thank you very much thank you sure appreciate it thank you guys next weekwas another episode of Jay Leno's Garage now we're putting the engine back together in my double steam cart well now George you know George Swift he is uh putting the engine together for us I noticed he was using this product here called arch aisle instead of our usual assembly off that we use her assembly grease and I said why and he went into a whole long dissertation and I said as an American company is it made here in the states he said sure so I said all right let's uh let's do a little web shoot on it
