What Is a Fuel Treatment?

What Is a Fuel Treatment?

Fuel treatments can transform the way your vehicle runs. You may not notice much at first, but over time, a good fuel treatment regimen can improve fuel efficiency, break down internal buildup and corrosion and increase your car’s power. In short, fuel treatments maximize vehicle performance, and if you aren’t using them, you’re losing out on power and money. 

In today’s economy, Hot Shot’s Secret thinks you should take advantage of every available way to save money on gasoline or diesel fuel. We’re here to show you why fuel treatments for your car should be in your arsenal of vehicle-saving solutions.

 

How Can Fuel Treatments Help Your Vehicle?

So, what does a fuel treatment do? Well, fuel treatments are additives for your car’s gas tank. The term is a catch-all that can refer to many types of additives designed to assist in processes like fuel efficiency, parts lubrication and fuel preservation.

Fuel treatments are especially valuable when discussing cars and vehicles that are in storage or don’t see much use. When you leave a car to sit, the fuel can degrade, causing rust and even engine concerns when you decide to drive it again. Using a fuel treatment before storing a car for a long time can keep the fuel from deteriorating and ensure it’s ready for use the next time you decide to break it out for a trade show or a beautiful summer cruise.

On the other hand, your high-use vehicles can benefit just as well from fuel treatments. The lubrication in most treatments prevents friction, resulting in fewer difficult starts and rough idles and providing an overall smoother performance. When you’re constantly on the move, these small changes can add up to significant savings in fuel economy and car maintenance.
