Default Re: Jersey's H3 and the Tale of 25MPG

Hey H,
Thanks for researching in greater detail. I'm happy to report that for the year and months that I've been using the product in my 2 vehicles, I've never experienced a CAT fire, nor an increase in heat. I work for a city fire department and I'm also happy to report that none of the 1,733 car fires I've researched on my CAD show the origin/source in the last 5 years were CAT related. In fact most car fires we experienced were sourced by engine compartment fires involving fuel leaks and by electrical fires in the dashboard, followed by arson related car fires.
My understanding of this product in particular is that it bonds to the gas on a molecular level causing it to burn in its entirety reducing the amoout of unburnt fuel going to the CAT. Less combustible material reaching the CAT indicates to me that the CAT would not be as hot as normal because there is less fuel for it burn. In the fire industry we call that a good thing.

Answer: Yes, not only does it suspend, it appears to have lots of other synergistic properties as listed in some of our pending patents (lubrication,pour point, Reduction of oxides of Nitrogen). It is done by..... well it is a little hard to explain. It lies in the components and the way they are blended. If you simply added the components to a fuel tank, you would basically get nothing or next to nothing.

As for running hotter:

Here's a pic I took the other day going 65 mph and 20 miles into my ride the temp is below the mid-line. So no increase showing up there:
