January 23rd, 2010 | 3 Comments »An agreement between United States of America and Canada came into enforcement for the efficient utilization of the highway transportation system, within the states of these two nations. This agreement is termed as International Fuel Tax Agreement or IFTA. According to the rules of this agreement, every licensee within the jurisdiction of the IFTA member states shall have to maintain certain records for the tax and audit purpose. All the intricate recordkeeping procedures were made remarkably easy by the new IFTA Fuel Tax Software. This highly advanced software technology helps a licensee to manage and maintain all the requisite records, including the fuel records, in-accordance with the laws of IFTA.As per section P550 of the â??Procedures Manualâ?? of the International Fuel Tax Agreement, every licensee shall have to maintain some specific fuel records. Some procedural rules laid down by IFTA are: 1. The licensee must maintain complete records of all motor fuel purchased, received and used in the conduct of its business.2. Totals of each motor fuel must be separately compiled.3. Separate accounts should be maintained for retail fuel purchased and bulk fuel purchased.Some of the essential information, required to be included in fuel records are as follows:-1. The date of each receipt of fuel;2. The name and address of the seller of the fuel;3. The quantity of fuel received in gallons or liters;4. The type of fuel used;5. The qualified vehicle identity into which the fuel was placed.IFTA fuel tax software helps in managing all the aforesaid records, very conveniently. This software was specifically designed to address all the fuel record requirements by the IFTA. Through this software each motor fuel can be separately managed; in terms of their totaling and accounting. Certain important records like the types of fuel used, the quantity of each type of motor fuel used, details of retail fuel purchases and bulk fuel purchases can be managed with the help of modern fuel tax software. Therefore, IFTA fuel tax software has brought enormous efficiency in the whole system of transportation within the jurisdiction of IFTA member states.Complex fuel record maintaining processes, required to be followed by any licensee operating in IFTA member states are highly simplified by IFTA fuel tax software. The usage of various types of fuels like gasoline, propane, LNG, CNG etc makes it highly difficult for a licensee to manage all the accounts manually. Thus, fuel tax software provides well organized and systematically designed features to maintain all the requisite records concerned with motor fuels. Moreover, the web based fuel tax software is an extremely advanced technology, which has overcome the disadvantages of the general fuel tax software. IFTA fuel tax software is an efficient technology, which conveniently manages all the motor fuel records, in-accordance with the IFTA guidelines.
I attended my first NHRA drag race yesterday. The Funny Cars and the Top Fuel dragsters went from 1/3 to 1/2 the length of the quater mile strip for their burnouts while the Stock class and some of the other divisions were able to do their burnouts before the staging area. Why?

There are lot of similarities between Fuel Cell and Battery in principle, the major difference is Fuel Cell don’t drain energy and don’t require recharging. The fuel cell will keep generating energy as long it is supplied fuel and an oxidizer.

If you put TOP GRADE FUEL (93 Octane – Super) or (98 Octane – RACING FUEL) into a Ford Expedition with a 5.4 Liter Triton V8 Engine…what would happen?
January 22nd, 2010 | 15 Comments »Probably the most significant component of an automobile is the fuel. It is a substantial component that enables your car to move and reach your destination. The primary function of the fuel system is to store and supply fuel to the cylinder chamber of the engine. The fuel injected to the engine is vaporized and combusted, thus producing the required energy to operate the vehicle.
The fuel itself, which could be either gasoline or diesel, is stored in a fuel tank. A fuel pump pushes the fuel from the tank through fuel lines and conveys it into a fuel filter. After filtering the fuel, it will pass though a carburetor or fuel injector, and then delivered to the cylinder chamber for combustion.
The main part of the fuel system is the fuel tank. Most cars contain a single fuel tank that is conveniently located at the rear of the vehicle. Nowadays, fuel tanks developed by auto manufacturers have internal baffles to prevent the fuel from drenching. Broken internal baffles can cause unwanted noises at the rear during acceleration or when slowing down. Standard fuel tanks contain fuel filler pipe, a fuel outlet line to the engine, and a vent system. Vehicles with catalytic converters are equipped with a filler pipe restrictor that prevents leaded fuel – dispensed from a thicker nozzle – from entering the fuel system. Fuel lines, made of metal or rubber hoses transmit the fuel from the fuel tank to the combustion engine.
Another part of the fuel system is the fuel pump. Most of the modern fuel systems like Jaguar fuel system parts utilize two different types of fuel pumps, the mechanical and electric fuel pump. Fuel injected cars use electric fuel pumps, while most cars that use carburetors are equipped with mechanical fuel pumps. Mechanical fuel pumps are diaphragm pumps mounted on the engine and operated by an eccentric cam usually on the camshaft. Electric pumps can be located anywhere on the vehicle because they are type of fuel pumps that does not depend on eccentric for the operation but usually, electric pumps are located near the fuel tank.
The last and definitely not the least part of the automotive fuel system is the fuel filter. The fuel filter is located in the fuel line that functions as a screen that prevents dust and other foreign particle from entering the fuel system.
Right now I’m getting about 1/4 mile per 10 gallons of fossil fuel.

For example, basic VW automotive architecture involves having the fuel tank located in a car’s opposite end off the engine. Because of this distance, a specially-designed, yet fundamentally-constructed VW fuel pump is needed to draw the gas toward the engine. There are two kinds of VW fuel pumps: the mechanical fuel pump, used in carburetor-run older VW models like Brasilia and Combi, and the electric fuel pump, used in the more recent, electronically fuel injected (EFI) cars.
Electric fuel pumps, the ones used by VW today, are almost always located inside the gas tank. This helps prevent vapor lock and keeps the fuel pump to a low and controlled temperature. The VW fuel pump is a turbine type hydraulic unit directly linked to a permanent magnet motor. This motor uses the fuel as its lubricant and coolant. Electric fuel pumps are used in EFI engines because they can produce high pressures needed for proper fuel management. An electric VW fuel pump is typically capable of putting out about 90 pounds per square inch (psi) of fuel pressure. A check valve is included in the fuel outlet to hold pressure when the pump is not running. Another valve, the pressure limiter, is located at the pressure side of the fuel pump housing, with a return passage to the fuel inlet side to keep fuel pressure within the prescribed specifications.
As the rotor disc rotates, the rollers are pressed outwards by centrifugal force and act as a circulating seal. The circulating rollers, in turn, creates a pumping action drawing in fuel at the inlet port and forcing the fuel through the outlet port and into the fuel system. When the pump is shut off, the check valve in the fuel outlet closes, therefore prohibiting the fuel from returning to the fuel tank through the fuel pump. The check valve therefore maintains pressure in the fuel lines called the “rest pressure.” Maximum fuel pump pressure depends on the calibration of the pressure limiter. In a clogged fuel filter, for example, the fuel pump pressure exceeds a preset limit, resulting to a by-pass opening to the fuel inlet side of the pump by the pressure limiter.
Fuel pump failure is not uncommon, particularly in cars with electronic fuel injection. Usually, when a fuel pump fails, a car will simply sputter and die, and will not restart. Essentially, a car with fuel pump failure will act like it is out of gas, even when there is gas in the tank. Fuel pump failure can be verified by checking the fuel delivery end of the system — if no fuel is being delivered to the engine, the fuel pump has most likely failed.
Replacing an electronic VW fuel pump can be really tricky. The fuel pump is usually mounted along with the fuel tank sending unit. Care must be taken when removing the pump/sender assembly so as not to damage the sender unit. Some vehicles have an access panel to get to the fuel pump without having to drop the tank. VW generally does have these panels. Some cars require a special tool to disconnect the fuel lines. Other cars have an access panel in the interior of the car that can be removed to reach the fuel pump. Still other vehicles require the fuel tank to be siphoned and removed, or dropped, before the fuel pump can be accessed. The latter type of car usually makes for the most laborious job of replacing a fuel pump. Arduous the changing of a fuel pump may be, but with this lies the car’s efficient fuel intake.
Yeah, my boss at the Ford dealership said they put out well over 7000 HP. We had the Bigfoot truck and he said it put out 16,000 HP. Bull-loney. The owner said it put out 2300 on the dyno, and another engine in their shop put out like 4000. Does anyone know if Top Fuel puts out more than 7000? Just wanna show my boss proof.
January 21st, 2010 | 2 Comments »1. How does Fuel Saver Magnetic works?
When fuel flows through the Fuel Saver Magnetic, it magnetizes fuel molecules and puts the molecules temporarily into cationic state. Fuel burning in this state is far more efficient and reduces carbon monoxide emission.
2. Does Fuel Saver Magnetic really work?
Yes! All the cars we have tested show significant fuel economy improvements. On top of that, we also receive many living proofs from our customers on how effective Fuel Saver has been in saving them plenty of money. We are very confident that you will also benefit from this little magical wonder. For that, we are offering the product risk-free to you . Read more about our Money Back Guarantee for Fuel Saver Magnetic .
3. Will Fuel Saver Magnetic void my car warranty?
Not at all as it does not require any mechanical, chemical nor electrical modifications or cuttings.
4. Can Fuel Saver Magnetic be installed on metal fuel pipeline?
Yes, the Fuel Saver can be installed on a rubber, metal, or metal braided fuel line. The performance does not vary from one type of fuel line to another.
5. How soon can I see the performance improvement of Fuel Saver Magnetic?
Immediately on your first full tank. And the improvement increases even more after a “driving-in” period (typically between 500km – 2,000km).
6. Will Fuel Saver Magnetic work on carburetor or fuel injection vehicles?
Works for both.
7. Will Fuel Saver Magnetic work for diesel, petrol, LPG or CNG?
Works for all. This is because (Fuel Saver Magnetic)the technology fundamentally works on all liquid or gases forms.
8. How can I install Fuel Saver Magnetic by myself?
Locate the petrol filter and fasten Fuel Saver Magnetic on the petrol pipeline coming out of the fuel tank or fuel filter. Place it as close as possible to the carburetor or fuel injection rail.
9. Will Fuel Saver Magnetic work on old or new cars?
Works for both.
Older cars would see greater fuel efficiency increased after run Fuel Saver Magnetic sometime (after 2500KM), this is because rust and dirt may have deposited, after 2500KM, the Fuel Saver Magnetic will clean the rust and dirt. For fast clean up the rust and dirt, use only one botol of our AutoMax NanoTech Fuel Enhancer.
New cars will enjoy continuous optimum fuel economy and have the engine and catalytic converters cleaned and protected.
10. I have seen other Fuel Saver Magnetic , how is Fuel Saver different from them?
Our Fuel SaverMagnetic is made of advance-precision-doped technology that produces high quality, high intensity and extremely directional magnetic flux to instantaneously:
- break down the complex fuel molecules
- rearrange the entangled fuel molecules
- ionize the molecules into cationic polarity
- Inhibit molecules from clustering
Our Fuel Saver Magnetic design is special as it delivers a better shielding for the magnetic field and echoes maximum magnetic effect towards the fuel line where it is needed. Other magnetic fuel savers mainly failed due to some reasons such as fuel line had to be cut in some cases; No real savings on diesel or gasoline fuel; Different models for different engine sizes & etc.
11. Why are you selling at such cheap price?
With the high fuel price, we believe with our best quality product(Fuel Saver Magnetic) and affordable price, it will benefit everybody. Lots of people thinks that, low price low quality, that is not true, to prove it to our customers, we are giving life time warranty for our product whereas others are only giving few years warranty.
Other Fuel Savers Magnetic are selling above RM150 or RM200++(USD60), we do not want to sell at higher price which the lower income group cannot afford to own it. We also do not make higher profit for our product but we want to sell more units. We give the best quality for the product and trying to cut some cost from the packaging box, advertisement etc. Whereas others trying to give you beautiful and quality packaging box, spend a lot of advertisement and sell you at higher price. Which want you want to choose?
