Lower Emissions
Modern engines are designed to run their best when vital engine parts are kept clean. Fuel injector deposits can cause hesitation and stumbling on acceleration, lower fuel economy, reduced power output, and increased emissions of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. Excessive intake valve deposits can cause many of the same performance problems, plus higher emissions of nitrogen oxides.

The EPA requires that all gasolines sold contain a deposit control additive. There are a number of different deposit control additives that can be used, and most do an adequate job in the engine's intake system. However, many additives contribute to combustion chamber deposits. Excessive combustion chamber deposits can cause an engine to need higher octane fuel to avoid knock, run-on or reduced engine performance. These excessive deposits can also cause increased emissions of nitrogen oxides. In contrast, Techron provides unbeatable intake system performance and minimizes contributing to harmful combustion chamber deposits.
