    KUTSAGA TOBACCO RESEARCH BOARD

    FUEL SAVING PROPOSAL

    SAVING FUEL, SAVING MONEY

    Done by: Sanganza Takunda

  • Introduction

    The Kutsaga Tobacco Research Board is an organization that is very active in marketing campaigns and

    daily operation to ensure the smooth running of activities and business. Some of the ways of extracting

    market intelligence and awareness is through the pro-active engagement with growers nationwide by

    actually travelling from Kutsaga to the different destinations of interest. The initiative of interacting with

    growers on a face-to-face through the field extension program is welcome but is putting a heavy burden

    on the limited resources of Kutsaga particularly the fuel available for use hence presenting a challenge

    which the writer has observed. The business development offices is proposing a solution to this challenge

    through a product that could present itself with merits such as lowering the amount of fuel consumption

    coupled with reducing the fuel budgetary cost. The solution is called XFT [Xtreme Fuel Treatment] a

    product of Syntek Global Company. The writer will explain in detail for a better informed decision by

    elaborating on how the product works, its success rate over the years from time it was launched for

    commercial use by the public, weigh the benefits and cost of the product to the company and vehicles,

    and lastly recommendations of the writer.

    Success rate of XFT

    Xtreme Fuel Treatment is a product patented and time tested for nearly two decades in industrial

    markets around the world. Extensive testing and performance measurement data prove that it really

    works! Until today this product has only been used in large industrial applications and has only been sold

    in bulk quantities. Now, for the first time ever, XFT is available to the general public for use in all types of

    engines. According to the organizations website www.syntekglobal.com Syntek Global is an organization

    that launched the product Xtreme Fuel Treatment to the public in the year 2007, however Xtreme Fuel

    Treatment seems to be very successful with the company displaying 100% money back guarantee on

    this product on their website. The product has managed to log over 3 Billion miles (5 Billion Kilometers)

    of successful engine operation with over 65 million hours of engine run time with it in the tank. The

    company comes highly recommended as it has been safe for use for both individuals and business

    owners. A company called PT Pama Indo Mining in Indonesia established in the year 1997 has been successfully using the product for 11 years to date as they save up to USD 2 Billion Dollars from fuel savings. In

    Zimbabwe a company called ZIMPLATS a mining company has adopted the use of this product and they are

    experiencing positive results on the performance of their vehicles so far.

  • How XFT [Xtreme Fuel Treatment] works? And the product merits.

    The product contains:

    a. Burn Rate Modifier

    Xtreme Fuel Treatment contains an oil soluble organo-metallic compound which functions as a

    burn rate modifier as well as a catalyst to extend the burn rate of fuel during combustion to provide

    a more complete fuel burn resulting in increased gas mileage, fewer harmful emissions and less

    carbon buildup on engine parts.

    b. Detergents

    Removes harmful deposits from fuel pumps, injectors and throughout the fuel system.

    c. Demulsifiers

    Xtreme Fuel Treatment] can minimize water damages that normal fuels are vulnerable to by

    extracting the water from the fuel.

    d. Rust and corrosion inhibitors

    It minimizes rusting and corrosion of engines caused by oxidation and condensation such that the

    probability is above the accepted norm.

    e. Fuel stabilizers

    Xtreme Fuel Treatment prolongs the life of stored fuel; ideal for seldom used equipment and

    vehicles.

    f. Lubricants

    Provides lubrication to pistons, fuel pumps and injectors, reducing friction and prolonging the

    working life of the engine.

    g. Polymerization Retardant & Dispersant

    Reduces sludge buildup in fuel which can plug filters.

  • The contents of Xtreme Fuel Treatment 10ml package can treat up to100l of petrol or diesel engine fuel. The

    contents of XFT can be directly poured directly into the fuel tank before fuel fill-up or mixed in a fuel tank using

    ratio 1ml of XFT as to 10l of petrol or diesel fuel. The main thrust behind Syntek Global is that of increasing fuel

    economy meaning going long miles using lesser fuel than is usual, for example the writer postulates that if

    normally 50l of diesel engine fuel used in MP300 vehicle could do 100km in the tank, with XFT the same 50l of fuel

    could do 150km [30%-40% increase in fuel economy] in the tank.

    Use of Xtreme Fuel Treatment

    The Xtreme Fuel Treatment in all of our gasoline and diesel engines, both two and four cycles including:

    Cars, Pickup, Heavy Trucks, Buses, Yard Equipment, Motorcycles, Snowmobiles, ATVs, Boats, RVs, Generators, Farm

    Equipment, Construction, Equipment

    3. Improves Vehicle Performance & Horsepower:

    Burns more of the available BTUs in the fuel resulting in better performance were by a more complete

    burn process increases the available horsepower and torque thereby improving your vehicles power

    4. Reduces Harmful Emissions & Pollutants:

    Reducing harmful pollutants from the exhaust pipe results in a cleaner environment.

    vehicles and equipment but conjectures that the higher risks comes higher returns.

    1. However calculated risks should be pursued hence the writer recommends using the product on a

    small scale such as use on a few of our companys vehicles while keeping a close account of results as

    observed from vehicle performances. Together with accepting

    2. The writer holds a standpoint that if our organization adopts the uses of the product being proposed in

    the contents of this document the company will be set on a better path to saving fuel hence saving

    money.

    3. To obtain maximum benefits of XFT i recommend we allow several treatments.

    4. The product can obtain notable optimum results if there is a double dosage of XFT of 2-3 treatments

    during the first trials.

    5. Communication with local Syntek Global distributor(s) on any questions and guidance as maybe

    necessary.
