ECOFuelMaximizer.com share how to Reduce diesel Regen (DPR) maintenance 70%

February 2, 2015 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Diesel engines since 2007 require servicing when the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) gets clogged with soot. Reduce Regens 70% & increase fuel efficiency 13%.

Boca Raton, Florida, February 01, 2015 – Diesels engines in the United States since 2007 are equipped with a computer controlled Diesel Particulate Filter designed to reduce pollution from un-burnt diesel fuel. Manufacturers since 2009 added Diesel Emission Fluid (DEF) a chemical injected into the exhaust system designed to help keep the DPF filter clean. If the DEF fluid is not maintained, an engine will shut down and require dealer servicing.

Stop and go driving and idling reduce the amount of fuel burned which causes a diesel engine’s computer to go into a regeneration mode to remove the un-burnt fuel or soot from the exhaust, the DPF filter traps the fuels soot. The ECO Fuel Enhancer is an inline fuel filter/vaporizer that reorganizes the molecules of fuel helping them to burn cleaner. A cleaner burning engine reduces the diesel regeneration cycle helping an engine’s DPF filter to keep cleaner longer.

Diesel Particulate Filter servicing or replacement is very expensive and is only covered under warranty for a short period of a diesel engines long lifespan. Reports state that some diesel engines require thousands of dollars in DPR maintenance every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.

Recent independent testing on 10 diesel Emergency Medical vehicles that experience excessive idling and stop and go driving, showed remarkable results. The ECO system showed an average of 70% reduction in a computer’s Regen cycle and a 13% increase in fuel economy. The low cost ECO Fuel Enhancer system requires no maintenance and has a life expectancy of 40 years. The ECO units have a No Risk return policy, they are Guaranteed to work. For less than $400 thousands of dollars can be saved.

The ECOFuelMaximizer.com and its affiliates have been advancing fuel saving and pollution reducing technologies since 1999. Over 200 Texas school systems over the last 10 years have installed over 30,000 units on their school buses. Individuals and Companies, who are interested in learning more about how to save Money, reduce Maintenance, Pollution and help Reduce Fuel Costs call or email for the latest information and updates.
