Star Tron enzyme fuel treatment<\/a>\u00a0is an additive that cleans\u00a0your fuel system and engine. Star Tron has a lot\u00a0of uses. It serves as a fuel stabilizer, fuel system\u00a0cleaner, diesel additive, ethanol treatment, and gas treatment. Many mechanics recommend that you use it as a regular part of your vehicle and power equipment maintenance.<\/p>\n

Use Star Tron\u00a0in Your Collector Car<\/h2>\n

Star Tron is a fuel system cleaner and fuel stabilizer in one. It’s great\u00a0for use in collector cars that can’t run efficiently on 10% ethanol fuels and need to be stored for months at a time in colder climates. It works very well for winterizing the fuel system on a car\u00a0that is only driven during the summer. Star Tron can help\u00a0improve gas mileage and make most rough-running engines run smoother. It\u00a0improves the all-around performance of your engine by keeping your fuel system clean. Star Tron also gets rid of\u00a0soot and exhaust stains. Use Star Tron to treat your gas with every fill-up\u00a0during the summer, and before you put your car away in storage for the winter.<\/p>\n

Use Star Tron in Diesel Engines<\/h2>\n

Diesel engines work best when you add diesel fuel additives<\/a> to your fuel. These additives can reduce emissions, clean fuel systems, increase fuel economy, stabilize fuel for storage, and prevent gelling in cold weather. Star Tron does all of these things as it’s specially formulated to be your go-to diesel fuel additive. You should treat your diesel fuel with Star Tron at every oil change during the warmer months, and every time you fill up your tank in the winter.<\/p>\n

Star Tron Combats the Effects of Ethanol in Small Engines<\/h2>\n

You may have had a hard time\u00a0getting your lawn mower\u00a0or\u00a0chain saw to start, only to be told by a mechanic that you were using the wrong fuel in it. Small engines like the ones in outdoor power equipment are not designed to run fuel with ethanol in it. Because most small engines have a carburetor, they experience problems burning non-gasoline fuels. Even if\u00a0you run\u00a0gas with 10% ethanol, it can cause your small engine’s carburetor to become clogged with residue. This makes the unit start hard and run rough. It can even keep\u00a0your\u00a0engine from starting at all. Since ethanol-free gas is becoming harder and harder to find, you may want to use\u00a0an additive like Star Tron to\u00a0make 10% ethanol fuels safe to run in your small engine. Star Tron will not allow ethanol to gel and build up in your carburetor. It\u00a0will clean your engine’s fuel system in the process, too.<\/p>\n
