Applications
Thousands
of operating hours and/or millions of miles traveled represents millions of
gallons of fuel, thousands of barrels of lubricants and tens of thousands
of man hours for maintenance. The Fitch Fuel Catalyst effects a
significant reduction of all three. Field and lab tested vehicles range
from 5-12% in fuel savings. The financial impact in fuel savings alone is
significant, not to mention the savings for motor oil which will last
longer due to a cleaner, cooler operating engine. The resultant
efficiencies include less wear, less time and cost for maintenance, less
down time and a major increase in travel time between overhauls. The
product is warranted for 500,000 miles, 10,000 hours. It pays for
itself many times over.
The Fitch Fuel Catalyst
is a permanent fuel treatment device that:
Reformulates fuel
Resuscitates
partially oxidized fuel and
Suppresses growth
of bacteria in fuels
The Fitch Fuel Catalyst
insures that fuel is in its optimal condition for combustion, allowing an
engine or a burner to extract the maximum amount of energy with the minimum
emissions per Kg of fuel.
Benifits: 1. Easier Starting: Especially cold starting 2. Increased fuel economy/ extended operating hours
3. Reduces Gelling and Diesel Bug
4. Reduced Emissions: Less carbon build up on plugs, reduces stack
smoke, reduces soot contamination to oil (many save one or more oil changes
per year on an entire fleet.) 5. Reduces Maintenance Expenses 6. Return on Investment: based on average truck fleet usage &
heavy equipment. 7.An oil analysis using Fitch will reflect the following: Reduction in Wear Metals

To the right a photograph of diesel fuel that was provided by the City
of Torrington, town garage from their 10,000 fuel tank. We split the fuel
into to glass containers and put a Fitch in one and not in the other, and
sealed them to let sit. After 24 hours, we poured the contents of each
container into the glass flasks you see in the photo. The one on the right
was treated with Fitch and the one on the left was not. It really is a NO
BRAINER, which fuel will burn more completely in an engine and operate more
efficiently? The fleet maintenance manager of the City of Torrington was
very impressed and installed Fitch units on DOT trucks with Cummins ISM
320V 7600 Series engines.
Engine Warranty Information:

Suzuki
Yanmar Diesel America Corp.
The FHDG Units are specifically designed for "Heavy Duty" use
in diesel and gas applications. These Super Heavy Duty units are warranted
for 500,000 miles, 10,000 hours..
These units fulfill the
technical requirements of the DOD Policy Guideline for Use of Aftermarket Fuel
and Lubricant products. The procedures in this program measured changes the
Catalyst makes to DF2, fuel economy and engine emissions
NOTE:
For a fleet wishing to conduct an evaluation of the Fitch Fuel Catalyst,
the most accurate way is for a diesel technician download the fuel usage
information from each on board truck computer which will provide accurate
information, eliminating variables from in field calculations. Fitch
recommends this method for the evaluation in order to gather good statistical
numbers. Downloading this information allows the isolation of very
important data like fuel usage during idle time, 1000 rpm, 2000 rpm, 3000
rpm, steady state, etc. Once this information is gathered, retrofit the
trucks with Fitch and collect this same data over a few months. This will
provide very accurate data and will easily reflect the benefits of the
Fitch Fuel Catalyst which tends to range between an increase of 5% - 10% on
most all commercial diesel engines.
If you have a power generator, large or small, Fitch Canada has
a Fitch unit for your application. From small home generators that take
"Drop-in" applications to huge 50,000 horsepower industrial
units, if your generator burns fuel oil, gasoline, diesel or propane we
have a catalyst to save you money and provide an excellent return on
investment.
There are many different sizes of Fitch units available for all types
of applications and fuel flow rates. For off road, construction, heavy duty
equipment, or stationary heavy equipment such as Generators, boilers etc
contact us for more information. We will be happy to help you with your

Regional Operations Manager, Major
U.S. Railway Company Gentlemen,
I primarily want to endorse the Fitch Fuel Catalyst with this
correspondence. We have been testing the Fitch for over a year now. We got
incredible initial results on two 1000R Mi-Jack cranes equipped with
Detroit 6-71's and later model 900R Mi-Jack cranes equipped with the
Detroit Series 50 DDEC systems. Our testing showed concrete fuel savings
of no less than13%. We also had Detroit Diesel perform independent
evaluations with their own software confirming the results.
Without getting into too much detail, I simply want to encourage you to
perform your own test(s). I am confident you will achieve the same results.
With rising fuel costs, this can be a great opportunity for your
organization as well as put a feather in your caps as well. The benefits go
deeper. With new emissions regulations around the corner that will affect
off-road applications, this product will assist you in getting within
standards. Once installed and past the two week break in or conditioning
period, you will see little or no colored exhaust from your machines, even
at start up or when you switch to high idle. The third benefit of the
entire package is increased horsepower because more complete combustion of
your fuel increases the life of your power plants since you are operating
more efficiently. Your lubricating oil sample results will confirm this. I
recently failed a motor after 15,000 hours. I installed the Fitch last May
when the machine had several thousand hours clocked on it already. I
believe I would've achieved at least another 1,000 hours, probably more,
had the Fitch been installed when the engine was new.
We have made the Fitch a specification for any new equipment we purchase
and are developing a plan to retro-fit our entire fleet. The Fitch performs
on all applications. Testing is currently being done on a locomotive in the
Midwest and preliminary results are positive. It is effective in automotive
and diesel highway truck applications as well.
Independent testing has been performed with similar results to what we have
achieved.
McMillan Transport Inc,
In the spring of 2007 we installed Fitch Catalyst in 2 Volvo tractors with
12L Volvo engines. Both units were 1 year old with a little over 100,000
miles, consistently averaging 5.8 MPG. Within 2 months of installation the
units were averaging 6.5 MPG and are still in that range. On 100,000 miles,
that is a savings of 1856.8 gallons of fuel per unit, surely worth the
investment.

The enclosed Fitch catalyst stopped producing at 570,881 miles. It was 1st
installed on a Volvo with a 12.7 SR60 Detroit engine. It went 175,000
miles with a 17% return on fuel. We removed it from that engine and
installed it on a 1998 Volvo with the 12.7 SR 60. It went 344,881 miles
with a 14% return on fuel. We removed the F500 unit once again and even
though we thought we might need a larger Fitch unit because of its great
history, we decided to install this same F500 unit onto a 1999 IHC with a
600 Cummins. It lasted an additional 51,000 miles getting between 7% to
8% before it stopped giving a return. Per your recommendation , we have
now installed the F750, which is appropriate for our application for the
600 Cummins, and it is working great. Please let me know how the tests come
out when you inspect the unit because it went a combined 570,881 miles
with a consistant return on fuel.
John Scully, Nova Scotia,Canada 1998 Mack E-Tech 427 HP Ontario Drive Clean Heavy-Duty diesel SAEJ1667 Snap
Acceleration Emission Inspection Program:
When I tested my Mack it came in at an average of 7.8 (before Fitch)
which was very low and I was told that this was very efficient. I then
installed and ran the Fitch for a period of time and recently went back to
the same facility and had it re-tested. My truck was due for regular
service and this had not been done before the final test. The same examiner
that did my truck the first time tested it again on 13/02/2002. This time
the levels were at 2.5 (after Fitch) which was extremely low ,
actually lower than most new trucks I was told. This was a decrease of
about 68% in emissions......mileage improved about 5% on the average. When
pulling up the hills I found that I could save 1 sometimes 2 gears on the
uphill grades.For

Sean Murphy, Canada 2000 Freightliner, 500 Detroit
I have noticed an immediate mileage gain of +1 mpg and also smoother
performance from the engine... Everything claimed about the Fitch is
absolutely true. It surpasses all my expectations. I wouldn't hesitate
to recommend Fitch to anyone, for any fuel usage, as a matter of fact, I
tell all my friends about it when we're off-roading. For more Click Here
