![]() ![]() Recently completed third-party testing of the new formula utilizing ASTM D4828 Standard Test methodology, demonstrated that Hot Shot’s Secret Stiction Eliminator removed 92% of stiction. Hot Shot’s Secret’s newly formulated Stiction Eliminator is formulated to effectively clean and lubricate the entire oil system from the turbo, bearings, injectors, rings and oil pump. Higher pressures and higher temperatures have a burning effect on oil that deposits the gummy residue on engine components affected by the oil system. ![]() Stiction buildup often results in hard starts, rough idling, black smoke, failed injectors and turbos, reduced power and fuel efficiency. Both friction reducers are compatible with one another but Hot Shot’s Secret recommends using the products in separate oil changes to maximize cost effectiveness.The term “stiction” describes the gummy, sticky residue of caked-on oil varnish build up that occurs on diesel injectors, bearings, turbos and engine components. FR3 should be used in the following two oil changes, with another treatment of Stiction Eliminator every third oil change. A treatment of Stiction Eliminator is recommended initially to immediately reduce friction and most importantly make sure the engine and turbo are clean internally. Stiction EliminatorįR3’s benefits are much more apparent and are maximized when added to an already cleaned engine. Proven through testing, FR3 will improve fuel economy up to 5%, enough to completely pay for the cost of a treatment in most vehicles! FR3 vs. FR3 improves the host oil’s oxidative stability and will help restore lost compression while lowering oil consumption. Reduced friction offers decreased noise, vibration and a reduction in oil operating temperature. This means longer engine life, longer turbo life, increased fuel economy, and increased horsepower and torque as proven in dynamometer testing. Throughout testing, FR3 was able to reduce wear by an additional 43% when added to Shell Rotella® engine oil at the treatment ratio specified on FR3’s label. FR3 can be used in any viscosity engine oil, and with any OEM full-flow or aftermarket bypass filtration system. An innovative synthetic PAO/ester base offers complete compatibility with all diesel and gasoline engine oils, as well as all conventional, semi synthetic and full synthetic engine oils. The synergy of these components extends the host oil’s performance in shear stability, oxidation stability, film strength and wear reduction. The carbon nano particles provide an optimal smooth surface for the host oil and FR3 formula to form a superior lubricating film. FR3’s formula utilizes our patented carbon nano particles which fill in microscopic irregularities on the machined surfaces in an engine (see image below). ![]() Our final formula includes three patented lubrication technologies, all of which make it the newest, most advanced friction reducer on the market. What is FR3?įR3 is an advanced friction reducer, taking 2 years for our team of chemists to fully develop. and Friction Reducer has since been discontinued. After finalizing a formula containing three patented technologies, we finally unveiled FR3 to the public at the 2016 SEMA/AAPEX show in Las Vegas, NV. While Friction Reducer was a great product, constant researching and testing over the course of two years led to the discovery of new technologies. ![]() While Stiction Eliminator does reduce wear more than 60% over its competitors (as verified in 3rd party ASTM tests) we knew we could offer a more powerful friction reducer if we created a product specifically for reducing wear.įor our returning customers, you might remember our previous product, Friction Reducer. Stiction Eliminator was developed primarily for its cleaning properties, as well as its ability to help prevent any kind of build up inside of an engine, whether it’s dirt, carbon, burnt/gummy engine oil, sludge formation, etc. We get asked this question frequently, so we’ve decided to explain the differences between the two engine performance products in depth in this article for your convenience. ![]()
