Bi-Tron oil products use advanced molecular engineering to create a completely new class of lubricant enhancers. The Bi-Tronized oil forms a bond with the metal surface being treated. This reaction is even stronger where there is excessive heat build-up due to friction between two metal surfaces. Most conventional oils would be subject to thermal viscosity breakdown and would tend to flow away from these areas, exposing metal to wear. Bi-Tron goes directly to the wear points or hot spots so that protection is supplied where it is needed most. This coating reduces friction and helps to protect your equipment's parts under the most extreme conditions Bi-Tron products are regularly improved upon as a result of continuing research and development by leading chemists from the U.S., Canada, England and Australia. Many customers have saved, not just thousands, but hundreds of thousands of dollars by using Bi-Tron products.

How Does Bi-Tron Work?
Continued
Friction breaks down the fluid film of the lubricant between the surfaces: produces wear or metal loss, scuffing, tearing and welding between the metal surfaces: releases energy in the form of heat, which can be adverse to the mechanism and contaminates the lubricants used. What is friction? By definition, friction is the resistance that is encountered when two solid surfaces slide or tend to slide over each other. What happens when friction is occurring? Friction breaks down the fluid film of the lubricant between the surfaces: produces wear or metal loss, scuffing, tearing and welding between the metal surfaces: releases energy in the form of heat, which can be adverse to the mechanism and contaminates the lubricants used. Moving parts are theoretically designed so that there is sufficient fluid pressure between the moving parts to keep these parts separated by this fluid film. This is what is called hydrodynamic lubrication (which can be compared to what is called hydroplaning, where under wet road conditions, the water that is sandwiched between the tire and road surface, under certain speeds, separates the tire from the road surface, giving the effect whereby the tire is gliding on a pressurized film of water) and is the ideal lubrication theory. Changes in load and speeds however tend to make this film thin, resulting in metal-to-metal contact. When this happens, the following phenomena occur between the metal surfaces: welding, scuffing and/or tearing, or absorbs heat; it starts to oxidize, resulting in an increase in viscosity (compared to new oil at comparable temperatures), acid, peroxide, carbon residue, sludge and asphaltene formation. As the oil oxidizes it becomes increasingly corrosive resulting in greater wear of metal surfaces. Marks Engineering manual states that the process of oxidation becomes critical when oil is operating above 150F (66C). It is not uncommon to find lubricating oil sump temperatures in excess of 250F (121C). The rate of oxidation doubles for each 18F (8C) rise in temperature of the oil above 150F (66C) ". It is easy to see how susceptible the engine oil (especially in turbo charged engines) is to oxidation. Also, it is important to understand that the viscosity of oil decreases as oil temperatures increase, resulting in loss of ability to form fluid film between the metal surfaces, causing greater metal-to-metal contact. All of the above only serve to prove that friction is the greatest demerit inherent in internal combustion engines, transmissions and differentials. Lubricants are required to carry out numerous functions in order to provide adequate lubrication. Crankcase oils, in addition to reducing friction and wear, must keep the engine clean and free from rust and corrosion, must act as a coolant and sealant, and must serve as a hydraulic fluid in an engine with hydraulic valve lifters. The lubricant may function under high temperatures and in the presence of dust, water and other adverse atmospheric conditions as well as with materials formed as a result of incomplete combustion: it must be resistant to oxidation and sludge formation. Therefore, many lubricants contain many additives and agents to meet these demands, but completely adequate or perfect lubricants are not economically possible. If such oils were produced, your cost would be over ten times what you may now pay for every oil change.

The success of c conventional lubricating oils is predicated upon maintaining a high film strength oil barrier betw l ween two su urfaces moving relative to each othe t er. Resistance to th movemen of these surfaces is de he nt efined as fric ction, which can be either sliding or rolling, or which can be caused by the shearing action of a r w e g lubr ricant attemp pting to sepa arate the tw surfaces.

Me echan nism of Bi-T o Tron L Lubrica ation
As w wear takes place, the cycle of re-impre e egnation repe eats itself int the next to expo osed layer of f impr regnated cry ystal patt terns below i which in it, turn automatically re-establishes th same he low friction and wear char racteristics o Bi-Tron of at a constant se elf-healing rate thereafter. Energ that goes into friction is converte directly to heat. This heat origina gy s n ed o ates from billions of collisions of microscopic protruding p m peaks of met (asperitie on tal es) the s surfaces of th moving parts, caused when these asperities penetrate th oil he p d e he film. With ordina oil, these asperities impact each other and usually imme ary e u ediately break off, creatin "wear me k ng etals" that ar often visib in used oil. Bi-Tron re ble o produ uct, by contr rast, apparently due to i superior f its film strength and its ability to h modify the surfac of the as ces sperities thermally, caus most of these impact ses t ted asperities to bend or fold ove by interna yield type flow of the metal in the er al e direc ction of impa act, without breaking off. They also tend to flatt b ten out, mos stly into their normal plan of shear, which is usu ne ually cylindrical or flat. This flattenin T ng great increases the total ar tly s rea of potent tial contact b between the two surface thus e es, provi iding more s surface area over which to distribute the load. This appears to be e T s at lea one of th mechanisms that resu in greater load carrying capacity, longer ast he ult , wear or both. r, In ad ddition, when these impa collisions occur, even though the are microscopic, n act s n ey their molecular a and crystal pattern arran p ngements are suddenly and forcibly e a defor rmed at relatively high velocities. This sudden f v flow creates a tremendous amou of micros unt scopically localized heat which is ins stantaneousl generated within ly d the la attice or crys stalline struc cture of the metal. Whe this heat momentarily en y reach 1,400-1, hes ,800F, the normal cryst pattern im n tal mmediately expands the ermally into a austenitic crystal pattern, which is then so lo an c oosely structured that it allows any n number of possible favored elements in Bi-Tron product oil to enter free into t ely this n new austenit structure and to be tr tic rapped inside, permanen ntly. This entra apment gives that layer of metal ent s tirely new fri iction and ha ardness capa abilities as a microscopica different alloy. Norm lubricants tend to migrate away from ally t mal m y these high heat s e sources, and are unlikely enter the a d y austenitic crystal pattern to n change the frictio and hardn on ness propert ties. Howev ver, our prod duct's oil molecule +) hich creates a tendency for it to bon to nd has a strong positive ionic (+ charge wh meta surfaces. al This bonding is m maintained at the extrem temperatures mentioned above, and a me some of the prop e prietary ingre edients of Bi i-Tron are dr riven into the austenitic crystal patte ern, by meta allurgically an instantan nd neously disso olving them, changing th he surfa hardness and friction characteris ace s n stics. These changed p properties ar probably o re only crystal-pattern deep or slightly more, p, y because there is simply not enough time to penetrat much furt e e te ther. As we ear takes place, the above cycle of re-impreg s gnation repe eats itself int the next to exposed layer of impregnated crystal pat tterns below it, which in turn autom w n matically re-es stablishes the same low friction and wear charac cteristics of Bi-Tron at a B const tant self-hea aling rate the ereafter.

Mechanism of Bi-Tron Lubrication
Continued
It is well known that when sand gets into conventionally lubricated bearings, there is an almost immediate grinding away or seizing of the mating surfaces. It is now known, from many tests in which sand is added to Bi-Tron treated oil, that conventional seizure does not occur. There is some evidence that there is a distinct hardening effect of the flattened and lengthened asperity tip surfaces by the sudden burnishing and polishing effect of the worn or seized surfaces. This healing of seized surfaces represents a remarkably valuable feature of this new oil. It means that incipient failures can now be slowed or stopped, allowing an extra buffer of time before ultimate failure. If greater loading and subsequent seizure should occur, Bi-Tron automatically compensates by continuously recycling the healing impregnations. As localized wear areas enlarge, the load is distributed over the larger area, and unit stress is reduced. The burnishing effect tends to reduce the coefficient of friction as evidenced by measurement with a motor-monitoring ammeter on a test machine. The damaged area, through the healing process, is almost as usable as before seizure, and exhibits amazingly low coefficient of friction. The surface hardening effect may be due in part to the quenching effect of the much cooler steel directly under the extremely thin friction surface, and in part to the ion implantation during the austenitic phase. This hypothesis needs more study, but seems to fit the empirical data.

Bi-Tron Performs Several Functions
Continued
B. At the same time Bi-Tron begins to do its part in increasing the "slipperiness" between the surfaces. In effect, Bi-Tron is aiding the host oil in maintaining, as much as possible, the hydrodynamic fluid film between these smoother metal surfaces. Bi-Tron, under heated conditions, is an extremely strong hydrocarbon that is resistant to film shear and vaporization. It is capable of maintaining a state, somewhere between a liquid and a gas under high temperatures and pressures and therefore, more capable as high film strength lubricant. Imagine having a smoother surface protected by very strong slippery molecules of Bi-Tron. C. Our product contains certain dispersants whose primary functions are to assist in the process of treating the metal by cleaning your engine or other mechanisms. The more contaminants there are in your engine, (such as carbon, sludge, varnishes, etc.) the less efficient your engine performance is. This unique product breaks up these contaminants in your oil, removes them from surfaces they have adhered to, and suspends them in the engine oil. By doing so (as you change your oil) you eliminate the sludge that "reduces" the efficiency of your engine. D. Our product contains certain oxidation inhibitors that assist in keeping your lubricants free from acids. As the lubricants are subjected to oil shear, pressure and heat in the presence of oxygen, moisture and chemical by-products, acids begin to form, which then leads to corrosive action on metal parts. By reducing the internal heat in your engine, through reduced friction, we are helping to retard the oxidation process. As a safety measure, we have added these oxidation inhibitors to this unique product to assist and enhance the inhibitors already contained in your host lubricant. It is important to remember that oxidized oil is a poor lubricant and can actually increase friction, internal to the mechanism due to what is referred to as "fluid friction" or "oil resistance". To summarize what Bi-Tron is engineered to do, we would like to draw your attention to the following comments given by Marks Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineers: "The ideal theory for lubrication is that of hydrodynamics. In engineering practice it is usually desirable to design a mechanism to operate with a fluid film separating the surfaces. This hydrodynamic lubrication occurs when the pressures developed in the converging fluid film are sufficient to support the load ... Often in actual practice, the regimes of operation under conditions in which hydrodynamic films are too thin, so that surface irregularities interact. For example, when the motion between the surfaces approaches zero (during standard stop). When the severe shock loads are applied (sudden increase/decrease in speed or RPM and when heavy loads are carried by the mechanism), or when viscosity is reduced (due to high temperatures), the complete (or hydrodynamic) lubricant film cannot be maintained between the surfaces, and metal-to-metal contact occurs. Under these incomplete (boundary) lubrication conditions, extreme pressure (EP) agents are used to provide a measure of safety". What Marks Handbook is stating is that extreme pressure agents are necessary to the performance of a mechanical system that depends on fluid lubrication. Unlike many other products on the international market, what our product does is that (during its metal treatment stage) it takes advantage of the friction produced due to lack of complete (hydrodynamic) lubrication. To keep these surface irregularities (metal peaks) from tearing or welding, it will smooth them out (or fold them over), resulting in a smoother surface. When this occurs, friction is reduced, less heat is transferred to the lubricant and efficiency is increased. From this point the paraffins begin to do their part in enhancing the host oil's ability to maintain complete lubrication on a new, smoother surface. The dispersants and oxidation inhibitors begin to do their part in cleaning the mechanical systems, and keeping them free from acids and oxides. The result is a healthier mechanism.

Bi-Trons Exclusive Advantages
1. Extraordinary bonding effect due to its ionic charge, which means that our oil molecule will not easily "drain away" when the engine or other machine is stopped. Instead, it will cling to the metal surface, and greatly reduce "dry start" wear phenomena. Ability to impregnate the surface crystal structure of metals, which cannot then be destroyed without its immediate automatic replacement. The surprisingly lower friction values, which remain essentially permanently in the treated metal surfaces. Its constantly replaceable hardening and healing effect on friction worn surfaces.

This very unique Metal Treatment" product is not an Additive. Additives are intended to improve or enhance the performance of the lubricant itself as their main focus. It is a Metal Treatment product whose primary purpose is to help in resolving the root cause of friction, namely the surface irregularities found on mechanical components or parts. Our product does not contain, in any form, solid or semi-solid particles such as graphite, molybdenum, lead, copper, ceramics or PTFE. It is not a viscosity enhancer. It is in fact a much-needed advancement in the field of lubrication engineering.

Where to Use Bi-Tron Products
Net Results When Using Bi-Tron Metal Treatment
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Reduction of "friction horsepower" equals a gain in actual torque to the wheels. Reduction of friction equals a decrease in actual running temperatures. Reduction of temperatures equals a decrease in actual running temperatures. Reduction of the oxidation rate equals a decrease in the corrosion tendencies within the system. Reduction in friction equals smoother and quieter operation, with less stress to the driver and passengers. Reduction in friction equals greater mechanical efficiency, which could mean better gasoline/diesel fuel efficiency. Reduction in oil temperatures equals a decreased loss of viscosity, which results in better hydrodynamics and less oil consumption. Reduction of friction, and smoother metal surfaces, equals improved seating between piston rings and cylinder walls, less oil consumption, less leakage of combustion by-products from combustion chamber into the lubricant system, less wear of metal surfaces and possibly a decrease in compression loss (less blow-by). Oxidation inhibitors and dispersants keep your system clean and free form contaminants such as carbon, sludge, resins, varnishes, etc. Reduction in oxidation and contaminants equals healthier seals, rings, o-rings and gaskets due to more stable neutral lubricant conditions.
Keep in mind that our product can be used with benefits wherever friction is found. The rule-of-thumb for mix percentage is 6% by volume. In certain cases, it might be advisable to use up to 10% when extra-quick response is required. However, the average is 6%. Some applications are: Internal Combustion Engines (Gasoline, Diesel, Natural Gas and Propane) One treatment lasts up to 15,000Km (9,321 miles). Roughly speaking, a person should add another treatment with the first oil change on or after 15,000Km (9,321 miles). Caution: In the event that Bi-Tron product is added to a dirty engine, the dispersants will suspend much of the residue in the engine oil after a very short time after Bi-Tron is added. This oil should be changed after 1,500 - 2,000Km (935 - 1,250 Miles) and an 8oz bottle of our product should be added. The customer might claim that Bi-Tron dirtied their oil. Please remember that the contaminants made the oil dirty, not the BiTron product. The customer should understand that this specially developed and unique product actually performed a service for them that their standard engine oil could not, thereby freeing their engine of harmful contaminants. Depending on the distance driven, type of engine and displacement, etc., treatment results could be as follows: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) i) j) Vehicle response gives a feeling of being light " and "quick" Smoother rise in RPM Better fuel efficiency Increased top end RPMs Increased idle RPMs Less decrease in speed going up a hill at a constant accelerator pressure. Many users have claimed they could now negotiate hills without downshifting. Quieter and smoother engine Overall improved engine response and quicker acceleration Easier cold weather starting than previously experienced When rings are fouled or frozen, the car uses oil. Dispersants in the engine should release these fouled or frozen rings, which could decrease oil consumption.

Caution: In some cases, if the engine is very dirty the user might complain that their car uses more oil after adding our product or that idling RPMs and smoothness has decreased. In this case, the contaminants have made the engine oil too thick and there is "fluid friction" taking place. Again, the problem is contamination from sludge, varnish and resins, etc., and not Bi-Tron. The oil in this case should not be changed as soon as possible and an 8oz bottle of Bi-Tron Engine Formulation should be added.

Manual Transmissions Powertrain & Gear Formulation 6% mix by volume should be added. One treatment should last for 1 - 2 years, or according to service instructions for changing transmission oil. If the transmission oil is changed, another treatment should be made with our Bi-Tron Powertrain Treatment product. Treatment results should include: 1 Gears should shift more smoothly 2. Before engine is started, shift gears, compare feeling before and after Bi-Tron Powertrain product is added, the "catching or corners" felling should have been reduced as you shift through the gears. In other words, shifting is quicker and without "grabbing". 3. Less vibration of the gearshift might also be evident. 4. Less torque loss in transmission translates into an increase in actual power to drive train. 5. Automatic Transmission: - 6% Powertrain mix ratio, by volume, depending on the type of ATF and transmission. Contrary to what you might think, this will not cause "slippage" in either manual or automatic transmissions. On the contrary, smoother and improved gear changes will be experienced. Treatment results could include: 1. A very slight decrease in viscosity 2. Reduced transmission leaks by keeping seals soft and pliable. Caution: Bi-Tron Powertrain product will not restore seals already hardened and cracked. 3. Smoother, faster shifting by keeping the valve assembly clean. 4. Reduction of transmission gear howl and vibration. 5. Keep in mind that the major cause of transmission failure is friction and heat. Bi-Tron Powertrain product will assist in the protection of the automatic transmission from these harmful elements and reducing the heat buildup which destroys the effectiveness of the fluid. Differential, Gears and Transfer Cases (regular and non-slip) Mix ratio is 6% Bi-Tron Powertrain by volume. Differentials are subjected to considerable heat and friction due to the loads and stress of hypoid gears. Laboratory and actual use tests have proven that our product could decrease internal oil temperatures in differentials anywhere from 5-20C (41-68F) requires a tremendous investment in engineering design and super-finishing of gear teeth surfaces and tempering. Treatment results should include: 1. 2. Reduction in operating temperatures. Reduces differential noise (gear howl).
Caution: Bi-Tron Powertrain product is not intended for gears that have sheared or on the verge of lock-up, unless it is due to overheating and has not yet resulted in welding.

There are many other areas where friction can be a source of problems. Many engineers have used their imagination to find new ways of utilizing the many conducive properties of our product. Note: Before uses in applications other than printed, please check with Bi-Tron Corporate Headquarters.
Note: Our product is not intended to restore mechanical failure. Wheel Bearings/Universal Joints Use 29ml (1oz) Bi-Tron Powertrain per bearing or joint. Their optimum life can be increased with smoother rotation through reduction of heat and friction. Caution: Not intended for bearings that are gouged or seized. However, in certain cases, the addition of our product could keep them running, for a short period, until replacement can be promptly made.
Air Conditioner Compressors Mix ratio is 3% Bi-Tron Powertrain by volume or 14ml per liter or 1oz per U.S. qt. whichever is less. Air conditioner compressors are a tremendous source of power-draw on engines. Bi-Tron can be added with the coolant gas on the low-pressure side. Before adding, please check with your service technician for assistance. Treatment results should include: 1. Up to 10% increase in P.S.I.G. 2. Temperature drop of 15 -10 C (59-68 F) 3. Up to 20% drop in amperage draw 4. Quieter, smoother running compressor 5. Less evidence in up and down vehicle engine RPMs Caution: Not intended to prevent loss-of-friction problems, except where lack of seal lubrication is causing leakage.

Bi-Trons line of metal treating lubricants and fuel treatments can have a dramatic impact on maintenance cost and downtime reduction.
Bi-Tron has been proven to reduce friction and therefore temperatures and wear between metal surfaces. Almost regardless of the equipment it will be possible to determine reductions in vibration, noise and often operating temperatures.
Bi-Trons fuel system technologies protect fuel pumps and injectors significantly more than even the older fuels were capable of.
Bi-Trons line of metal treating lubricants and fuel treatments has been proven in the field as well as in the lab as the following professional reference letters show.
I Christopher Malyszewicz of "Chemical Solutions Consultancy International" have tested the Bi-Tron range of products and am satisfied that they are the best petroleum products available in the world. They have been specifically formulated to meet the European and American markets and hence the brilliant performance and fuel savings they give when used in conjunction with each other. They have proved to dramatically lower the smoke emissions by improving combustion, hence power and performance. This in turn will give automatic fuel savings of between 8 - 10% guaranteed by the emissions test. I am satisfied with the overall performance and chemical characteristics of the range that they meet all standards of compliance and regulatory details for worldwide patency. Yours Sincerely, Chris Malyszewicz BSc.Hons. Chem., Bio., Leics. England ADVERSE EFFECT TESTS (Chemical Solutions Consultancy International) Test Laboratory Feedback

PERFORMANCE TESTS (Chemical Solutions Consultancy International) Test Laboratory Feedback With over fifteen years experience in Chemical Research & Development and having consulted for such world renowned companies as Cosworth-Technology, Boeing Aircraft, British Airways, Britannia Airways, Monarch Airways, Birmingham European Airways and Biogard Chemicals UK. I have had the opportunity to evaluate many products that claim to make an improvement to the environment and save energy. I heard about the Bi-Tron range of products through a colleague. Needless to say I approached these products with a degree of cynicism, but to my amazement I saw for myself what these products were capable of. In my opinion the Bi-Tron range of products are the most efficient and highest performing products on the market today. I do not say this lightly; I have tried and tested the Bi-Tron range alongside its competitors with the most sophisticated equipment available. I am completely satisfied that they are the best petroleum based products available anywhere at present. The Bi-Tron lubricants have the ability to raise the friction reducing properties of gear and engine oils far beyond their natural threshold. The Bi-Tron fuel conditioners have proved to dramatically lower harmful emissions by improving combustion, resulting in increased efficiency and performance. This will give automatic savings of between 8-10% in fuel consumption guaranteed by the emissions test. The environment needs products like Bi-Tron that reduce un-burnt Hydrocarbons and high levels of Carbon Monoxide from petrol and diesel engines. All the components used in the Bi-Tron range of products are carefully selected to meet the stringent requirements laid down by the E.P.A. and the European Commission.

OIL ADDITIVES Bulletin by James Richmond People ask us all the time, Why do I need an oil additive? Back in the early 1900s when the auto industry was young and the giants like Henry Ford ruled the roost, motor oil was almost straight out of the ground. The only items early oil manufacturers removed during the refining process were gasoline and kerosene. These early oils were much different than what we buy at our corner auto store today. In the days before World War II, there were no high tech demands on the oil industry. You see, many of you may not be aware that jet fuel, plastics, and most synthetics come from refined oil. During the refining process of modern day oils these higher priced by-products are removed first and what is left over is made into the motor oil you and I buy at the corner store. These modern day demands on oils remove many of the natural additives and minerals that were put there by Mother Nature. Todays oil is nothing more than a carrier system for the additive packages that the oil manufacturers add at the refining plant. This is a far cry from what our great grandfathers bought many years ago. You need to understand that modern day motor oils are produced only after all the other items, like plastics and synthetics, are removed. Then they start the process of adding their own chemical additive packages to bring the oil up to a minimum specification. These specifications are governed by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Bear in mind that these minimum specifications are only met by the oil when it is newly off the shelf. The moment you start your car the additive package in your oil starts to wear out. In fact, it is the additive package that wears out, not your oil. That's one of the reasons the manufacturers require you to change your oil so often. Some oil manufacturers are reverting back to using higher grades of base stock oil without removing the heating oils and jet fuels. But these oils are offered at much higher prices and normally sold to racers and auto specialty companies. Bi-Tron coats the metal in your engine with a protective layer. Bi-Tron is actually attracted to areas of friction and heat that may be caused where your oil is breaking down and can no longer provide effective lubrication. Given that oil companies manufacture oil additive packages that only meet the minimum requirements, if you want to protect the second largest investment of your lifetime, namely your automobile; you need to put Bi-Tron in your vehicle.

TODAYS OIL CHANGE Bulletin by James Richmond
Before you change the oil in your car, you need to be aware of a few things that the average driver isnt. Non-synthetic motor oils are made to a performance specification and are not a formulated product. Motor oil is made from what is left over after all the other chemical products have been removed. Each batch of base stock oil is different because it comes from different oil wells in different parts of the world. This difference means the Oil Manufacturer's Additive Package that will be added to the base stock oil will be different for each batch. California oil vs. Saudi oil is much different and the Oil Manufacturer's Additive Package is also different. So, what does this mean to me? Well most people think that when they buy a brand name oil, let's say a 10-30 type, that if they buy that bottle in Boston it will be the same as a bottle purchased in San Diego. With non-synthetic motor oil being a performance specification and not a formula, the additive packages in each of these two bottles we are talking about may or may not be same. Oil is made in different plants and different parts of the country, and different parts of the world for that matter. This means that to meet the minimum specification set forth by the auto manufacturer you would have to make sure the Brand Name Oils all came from the same lot. Look on the bottom of each bottle and you will find the lot number along with many other numbers that are used for pricing and transportation. Say the bottle you buy in Boston has a 1234 lot number on it and the one you buy from San Diego has a lot number 5678. If you mix these two bottles of motor oil, with these two different lots numbers, from the same oil company with the same brand name and viscosity, it will not meet the minimum performance specification. Because the Oil Manufacturer's Additive Packages are different. I ran the following test in a laboratory setting using state-of-the-art engine test equipment and I found that mixing lot numbers does affect the outcome of how the oil performs. I bought cases of oil and randomly picked bottles of oil out of the cases and mixed them together and put them into a 3.8L GM test engine. We failed on two occasions to meet the baseline requirements of the auto manufacturer's performance specification because we mixed lot numbers. We, as auto engineers, were also unaware of this problem, and then when we mixed bottles with the same lot numbers we passed the minimum specification. So if you change your own oil, you will now have to look at the bottom of each bottle and make sure you buy a case of oil with all the same lot numbers to assure you meet the minimum performance specification. What happens when you take your car to a quick oil change place and they pump the oil out of their underground tanks? When the auto dealer or quick oil change place buys in bulk, let's say 10W-30 oil, it may be from different batches and blended before it even gets to the auto dealer or quick oil change establishment. One thing for sure is that its going to be mixed with other oils when they dump the new oil on top of the oil left in the bottom of the tank. This mixing of oils and lot numbers just took a major turn for the worse because now the oil that was pumped into your car may come from many different manufacturers and a variety of lot numbers. This brings us to the use of Bi-Tron products in your car. With the secret out about lot numbers you need to have a high quality oil treatment like Bi-Tron in your car. Without it you will not meet the performance standards set forth by the auto manufacturer because the lot numbers were not the same. This mixing of lot numbers causes the oil additives packages in the oil to cancel each other out in some cases. To make sure that your car meets the performance standard you will need an additional oil additive that is compatible with the oil in your car. Bi-Tron products can step into the void and perform to meet this need.

TURBO CHARGES & HEAT Bulletin by James Richmond
Now you own a turbo and no one told you about the additional heat?
Most people who buy high performance smaller engines dont even know they just bought a turbo. Not every person that buys a turbo is a teenager looking to become a street racer. Well you may be surprised to find those same engines in a great number of run-of-the-mill vehicles. Soccer moms and seniors who want a smaller four-cylinder engine just bought their first turbo. Turbos are everywhere in today's auto manufacturers' engine offerings. These turbos create a unique problem that most consumers dont know about compared to a normally aspirated engine, and the problem is additional heat. Heat that you dont have to deal with in non-turbo engines; heat so great that turbos are now normally water-cooled. In the past, many were air-cooled. GM, for example, had to give up on air-cooled turbo engines because consumers burned up their engines. In traffic back-ups and those hot summer trips, turbos (the older air-cooled type) just didnt make it. I had two of them when I worked for GM and I fired both of them. So you need to find out what type of turbo you have before you take that trip to downtown on a hot sunny day. Before we go much further with this, you need to understand that increased heat affects your engine in many ways. These effects are not just all internal. This heat affects your engine and your oil. Oil in turbo engines is under greater stress and these oils break down faster in turbo engines. Are the people driving cars around you aware of the increased engine heat? We dont think so. How does owning a turbo affect your oil? You must understand that maximum lubrication is a must for these types of engines. Having minimum oil protection can be deadly to a turbo engine. If you question this all you need to do is. Look at your Tachometer! It will tell you whats happening on the inside of your engine. Most new turbos dont kick in until about 2500 rpm. Look at your tachometer at 65 or 70 miles an hour. The same, about 2500 rpm. What does this tell you! To get the increased acceleration from a light, or when merging onto a freeway, you need to kick the turbo in, to do that you need to run the engine at 2500 rpm, the same rpms you need to run your car at 70 miles an hour. Common sense will tell you that this increase in rpm will affect your engine in a negative way. More rpms mean more heat and more wear and tear on your engine. These four-cylinder turbos will give you the pick-up and pep like a six cylinder, but what affect does it have on the longevity of your four cylinder engine? The affect of the heat and the acids created by the breaking down of the oil will increase wear on these little engines. These little four-cylinder engines have to compete with larger engines in day-to-day driving. Because of the strain and the additional wear these little engines normally give poorer performance after 30,000 miles. These engines need Bi-Tron. Bi-Tron will not break down like conventional motor oils. It will prevent the oil from losing its lubrication ability and the additional lubricity caused by Bi-Tron will help stabilize the engine oil mixture. Additional heat needs additional lubrication and Bi-Tron can deliver that to you.

Bi-Tron Customer Result Summary
Due to the large volume of information available complete details can be found online at
www.extremelubrication.com
Mining Quarry Client added Bi-Tron Engine Treatment to a diesel generator after it was in service for 5,000 hours. They reported an average of 10% reduction in fuel consumption within a few weeks. 1. The quarry spent US$7,690 on Bi-Tron products. They estimated savings of at least US$150,000 on repairs, fuel and oil consumption. 2. After 30,000 hours, the engine in question was taken apart. All the pistons had piston-skirts and piston rings completely clean of any build-up. The rings looked like new and did not have any wear whatsoever. Pictures can be seen online. Asphalt Quarry A diesel engine, in which Bi-Tron had been used for almost 3 years, was taken apart. No traces of wear were found and the engine parts looked completely clean and almost new. Additional tests were done and showed amazing oil characteristic retention. Client reported this as not common under normal circumstances. Dragster Engine One piston was taken out of a dragster engine after 70 runs without Bi-Tron. The piston skirt has a severe scuffing. Another piston was taken out of an engine after 350 runs with Bi-Tron. The piston had no signs of wear, was completely clean, and all the friction surfaces were polished. Pictures can be found online. Taxi Cab Fleet Clients cabs were treated with Bi-Tron according to instructions and road-tested for two days with the following results: 1. Compression readings ranged between 149 and 154 (Note: 154 is equivalent to that expected from a brand new engine). 2. Increased power and performance were reported by the drivers. 3. The Bi-Tron treated cabs ran quieter and smoother. 4. The average operating temperature was reduced by 20 degrees 5. Drivers reported mileage improvement 6. An engine treated with Bi-Tron was disassembled and inspected. It was found clean, had no build-up and the surfaces appeared to be polished. As a result of the above, they are now using Bi-Tron in the entire fleet. Machine Shops
A client reported that with Bi-Tron there has been no maintenance performed but to fill the oilers. Taking into consideration the cost of Bi-Tron that was used per year the savings reported by the client were US$25,300. Another client was able to increase feeds
and speeds in some cases as much as 50% and at the same time, improve surface finish and extend tool life by up to 3 times. Probably the most dramatic result experienced is the elimination of aluminum bonding to cutting tools even when cutting dry (i.e. no coolant).

Bi-Tron Product Guarantee
You Warranty is Protected
Bi-Tron lubricants are a unique 100% guaranteed pure petroleum-based metal treatment that is compatible with all motor oils, including synthetics as well as hydraulic and transmission fluids. Bi-Tron is not intended to replace the oil in your engine or the fluid in your transmission. Engine oil, for example, contains a package of oil additives designed to perform a variety of tasks crucial to engine performance. Unlike many oil additives and engine treatments, Bi-Tron will not interfere with engineered tolerances and cannot adversely affect engine performance. Bi-Tron contains no solids of any kind. It contains no plastic particles or P.T.F.E. resins (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene also more commonly known as Teflon). It contains no molybdenum disulfide or any potentially toxic and environmentally hazardous metals such as copper or lead or any other metal. Bi-Tron Global does not endorse deviating in any manner from the manufacturers maintenance guidelines especially with respect to frequency of oil changes. Failure to regularly change your oil can result in the voiding of a manufacturers warranty. Using Bi-Tron products to reduce wear and improve lubrication CANNOT void a warranty. Your warranty actually covers the quality of material and workmanship that went into assembling your equipment/vehicle. Protecting the moving metal parts in your equipment/vehicle with a protective lubricating layer cannot void that warranty. Generally it is not that oil is worn out that requires oil changes; more often it is that the package of additives in the oil will have been exhausted and require replenishment. In summary Bi-Tron may extend the useful life of the base lubricant and allow it to work better for longer but we DO NOT recommend deviating from manufacturers warranty guidelines. Bi-Tron Fuel Conditioner is a non-extractable and ash-less conditioner that serves as a multi-functional lubricant, and conforms to EPA regulations when used in diesel fuel. It is non-corrosive and contains no solids. Bi-Tron Fuel Conditioner is EPA registered. Bi-Tron Fuel Conditioner is compatible with all grades of fuel; gasoline and diesel, heating oils etc. but may not be totally miscible with crude, heavy bunker C grade fuel.
Use of Bi-Ton cannot void any manufacturer warranty. A warranty covers the material and workmanship put into the equipment warranted. Improving on the minimum lubrication requirements recommended to allow equipment to survive the warranty period cannot negatively affect either the material or the quality of the assembly.
