Liquid Intelligence 203 Cold Flow Improver Additive will allow diesel engines to continue to operate in cold weather conditions. The Liquid Intelligence 203 additive will not prevent the diesel from devel- oping microfine wax particles but it will prevent them from collecting together to form larger wax flakes that can clog up the fuel filter. Liquid Intelligence 203 inhibits and modifies wax crystal growth, offering effective cold flow management for diesel fuels. Best results for reducing cold filter plugging are achieved when Liquid Intelligence 203 is used at the following treat rates.

Liquid Intelligence 201 Volume 1 “DIESEL BUG” Here’s What Vehicle, Vessel & Equipment Owners Need To Know There is no end of information available about these diesel bugs.

Liquid Intelligence 201 Diesel Fuel Bacteria & Fungi Biocide T he price for the Liquid Intelligence 201 Diesel Fuel Bacteria & Fungi Biocide may seem expensive when com- pared to retail brands of diesel biocide. But most retail brands either contain a few percent of active biocides or are formulated from cheap formaldehyde-based bio- cides. Formaldehyde is only miscible in water, thus its only effective on microbial infections that grow in the water phase at the bottom of a diesel tank (the condensation build up at the bottom of the tank). And is totally immiscible in diesel, thus ineffective at eradicating microbial infections living in the fuel itself.

Diesel bug contamination often starts small and unseen in the bottom of bulk storage tanks. Early detection and treatment prevents costly equipment down time from clogged fuel filters and engine stoppages. This kit tests for bacteria, yeast and fungi in stored diesel fuel BEFORE it has a chance to fully develop, giving you time to treat and clean the fuel, preventing expensive repairs to vehicles and equipment.

Liquid Intelligence 238 Volume 1 REMOVING THICK OIL SLUDGE FROM A COOLING SYSTEMS CAN BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT M echanics say that it’s almost impossible to get a cooling system totally clean, after this has hap- pened. Even when they have been flushing for days using very strong corrosive cleaners, there is still lots of oily gunk left behind. Liquid Intelligence has formulated a quicker, simpler, more com- plete method of cleaning sludge from cooling systems. We found that by using a chemical reaction we could convert that oily sludge into a water soluble soap based compound that could be simply flushed away leaving a totally clean cooling system. Liquid Intelligence 238 Cooling System De-sludging Additive These are examples of emulsified oil sludge in radiators The most common visual symptom of a leak from a head gasket, from head gasket, or oil cooler failure. oil or transmission cooler that has been going on for a while is a thick milky sludge in the coolant. In the early stages of a leak, worked at removing this thick gunky sludge from cooling system. there may just be an oily sheen on top of the coolant. But if these symptom go unnoticed, which they quite often do, then the oil will continue to build up into a thick sludge, causing the vehicle to eventually overheat. Of course the damage that caused the problem first needs to The main reason is that engine coolant channels, radiators, hoses be repaired, and then the oil/coolant sludge removed from the and heater matrixes get totally blocked up with high surface ten- cooling system. Flushing the sludge from the cooling system is sion greasy sludge, that just won’t shift using traditional cleaning not easily done, in fact it’s normally a very difficult and time con- chemicals and methods. In fact it’s quite common for a mechanic suming task even for a professional. Most attempts at removing to have flushed a cooling system for days with very strong acid this sludge have included the use of strong detergents, and even or alkaline based cleaners and still not get all the gunk out. And solvent or caustic based degreasers, plus all sorts of general pur- there is always good chance that those harsh cleaners will cor- pose cleaners and home remedies. But nothing has ever really roded and do further damage to a cooling system. Liquid Intelligence 238 Cooling Systems Oil Sludge Remover would be the safest and most effective product for this job. Because it’s a totally safe non-corrosive treatment, that contains highly active emulsification properties, mak- ing it the most effective and application-specific oil sludge cleaner available. Here’s why! Liquid Intelligence 238 removes emulsified oil sludge from radia- tor flutes, water jackets and heater matrix units following cylinder head gasket, or oil cooler failure. The Liquid Intelligence 238 treatment has uniquely different emul- sification properties when compared to detergents and degreas- ers. It uses an innovative pH neutral dispersion method to break even thickest water/oil emulsion sludge and convert it into a water soluble soap based compound. And that then will allow the converted sludge soap to be simply flushed from the cooling system using a normal garden hose. Leaving the cooling system squeaky clean and oil free.
