Adding ethanol to fuel makes it burn more efficiently, which reduces emissions such as carbon monoxide. In fact, ethanol-enriched fuels have been so effective at improving air quality that the level of ethanol is on the rise. While that’s great news for the environment, it’s bad news for engines. Here’s why:

Engine Med RX Keep your engine clean and running efficiently by adding this every time you fill up. It minimizes carbon deposits that can build up in a combustion chamber and internal engine parts, cause your piston rings to stick, and result in poor performance and costly repairs. It also protects fuel system metals such as silver solder, copper, aluminum and steel from ethanol sulfate salt corrosion.
Ethanol attracts water. Over time, it can bond to moisture, separate from fuel and drop to the bottom of a tank. This is called phase separation and it causes several problems. First, it can force your engine to try to run on water—not good. Second, ethanol boosts fuel octane by about two points; so when it drops out, your fuel can fall below the recommended octane. This leads to hard starts, poor acceleration and loss of power. Ethanol acts as a solvent, loosening rust and debris—not only in your fuel system, but also in gas station fuel distribution systems. To avoid pumping your gas tank full of filter-clogging, engine-bogging debris, buy your gas where they sell a lot of it. The longer gas sits at a station, the greater the chance of it having debris in it. Ethanol can wreak havoc on fuel system components. First, it contains sulfate salts that corrode fuel system metals. Second, its solvent properties can cause hoses and gaskets in older model engines to shrink or become brittle over time.
Fuel Med RX - 3.2 oz. Get all the benefits of Fuel Med RX in a road-ready package. Our 3.2 oz. travel size treats 5 gallons of gas. Treat, toss and take off. Not to be used for long-term fuel storage. 3.2 oz. Bottle (Qty. 48*) ACC-FUELM-RX-04
Fuel Med RX- 1 Gallon Perfect for treating larger fuel containers, such as those used for boats. 1 Gallon (Qty. 4*) ACC-FUELM-RX-GL

Fuel Med RX This proprietary, alcohol-free blend fights moisture, oxidation and phase separation in ethanol-enriched fuels, and protects fuel system metals. Use continuous treat rate if in-season fuel will sit in a tank for 7-plus days. The storage treat rate keeps fuel fresh for up to one year. 16 oz. Bottle (Qty. 12*) ACC-FUELM-RX-16 Chambered bottle for easy measuring.
