*** Several years ago one of the speakers at a Krogen Cruisers workshop
warned of similiar results from using Biobar .
This warning began my investigations into fuel additives . Soltron was
a product that I found excellent reports on in boating magazines from the UK
specifically Motor Boats Monthly and Practical Boat Owner.
Each magazine published pictures of before ( cut apart filters filled
with these coffee ground nodules ) and after ( cut apart clean filters )
from the use of the product.
These results were quite amazing and I tracked the product to the manf
and distributor - which at that time was located only on the west coast -
with one outlet in Fla .
I have been using Soltron ever since and remain quite happy with the
results in the tank and fuel supply of Mrs. Hudson .
Although Soltron is widely used on the west coast by marine and oil
fired power generating plants it has only recently acheived acceptance on
the East Coast by these industrial users .
It is my understanding that South Carolina Power has begun using
Soltron to clean the fuel storage tanks of over 50,000 gal used for their
emergency generator capacity rather than having the fuel therein polished -
which used to be quite costly . They double dose these tanks periodically
rather than having the fuel polished as before - with good results .
Ya pays your money and takes your pick .... and live with the results .
All the Best
Ken
