Barge fitted with twin 8V7IS Detroit Engines was using 790 litres of diesel on round trip to islands. The engineer decided to trial Bitron over 6 months. To his amazement the fuel usage dropped to 600 litres – a saving of 24%. He used Bitron Diesel Fuel Treatment and EP20 Engine Treatment, along with EP40 Powertrain & Gear Formulation in his Allison transmission. Everything runs smoother and quieter as a result of reduced friction.





Consort Shipping use 30,000-40,000 litres of diesel per week and are trialling Bitron products in one of their inter-island vehicle-carrying ships. After initial trials with five voyages Consort Shipping have seen an 11% fuel saving, using Bitron D110 Diesel Fuel Treatment and Bitron EP20 Engine Treatment.

 





Since using Bitron EP20 Engine Treatment and EP40 Powertrain & Gear Formulation his Volvo 2003 340hp truck. When loaded he saves 1½ gear changes going over Mingala Range to Charters Towers. Before using EP40 Powertrain Formulation his drive train was running hot, now it is considerably cooler.

Bi-Tron product testimonial

Caterpillar 12H
 
Customer: Cyril Vale – Owner
 
Mendip Hills Pastoral Company, Jericho QLD
 
Equipment: Caterpillar 12H Grader;
 
D6H Dozer;
 
D85 Komatsu Dozer;
 
and work utes & trucks
 
New Caterpillar 12H required scheduled oil sample (SOS) analysis by Hastings Deering under the terms of the manufacturer’s warranty.  As Bi-Tron is a pure petroleum mineral oil, it has not shown as an additive in these tests (such as Teflons or metals) therefore CANNOT void any manufacturer’s warranty.
 
In 2007 Bi-Tron Engine Treatment, Powertrain & Gear Formulation and Diesel Fuel Conditioner were introduced to the Caterpillar Grader. The machine had 700 hours operation on the clock beforehand.  The first oil sample after the addition of Bi-Tron products was taken at 1000 hours.  Results from this initial treatment below.
 
The 3rd and 4th oil samples showed a further reduction in these contaminants and wear factor.
 


Contaminant            BEFORE          AFTER        % reduction      

Copper (Cu)                6                   2                 66%
 
Iron (Fe)                     16                 8                 50%

Aluminium (Al)             4                  2                 50%
 
Soot (ST)                    33                28                15%

Sulphur (Sul)               14                11                21%
 

Using the Caterpillar’s computerised fuel flow meters, fuel consumption was shown to be reduced from 16 litres per hour to 14.12 litres per hour – A reduction of 11.75%
 
Cyril Vale noted improved general performance, notably power and smoothness.
 
“I would recommend Bi-Tron in any machine as the fuel savings more than cover the cost of treatment”

 




Cane Harvester


George Axiak – Cane Harvesting Contractor – MIRANI, Q
 

Initially used more fuel when using Bitron Diesel Fuel Conditioner in Haul-Outs, then consumption dropped from 100 litres to 80 litres.  Machinery now running quieter and smoother

 




NQRF Earthmoving


Lance & Craig Talbot – NQRF Earthmoving – PROSERPINE, Q
 

November 2007 trialled all Bitron Products on Mack Trident 450HP
 
To date 11% reduction in fuel consumption.  Using EP Metal Treatment removed vibration in gearbox and reduced operating temperature in differentials.  Very happy with their results.


 


FIAT Tractor


Paul Bonano – AYR, Q
 

Added Bitron Diesel Fuel Conditioner to FIAT Tractor, stopped injector pump leaking.  Added Bitron Diesel Fuel Conditioner to Harvester and all tractors, everything runs quieter and all “gunk” removed from tanks.  Also fixed diesel bug.


 



Burdekin Transport


Ross Lewis – Burdekin Transport – AYR, Q
 

Uses Bitron Diesel Fuel Conditioner, Engine Formulation & EP Metal Treatment
 
Detroit SER60 450HP engine, has done 1.7 million kilometres.  Was using 2½ litres of oil every two weeks, added Engine Formulation and now uses NO oil.

 


Fuel Tanker

Chris Fordham – Jenfor Transport – GARBUTT, Q
 Owner driver of B-Double Fuel Truck
 

Jenfor use Bitron Diesel Fuel Conditioner, Engine Formulation & EP Metal Treatment.
 
Stopped adding Diesel Fuel Conditioner, took 8-9 tanks (1200-1400 litres) before product stopped working.  He knew when it stopped working by the way his motor ran, so began using the product again.  Chris also claims quicker gear changes and Bitron definitely lifts revs.

 



Russel Price Transport


Russel Price – Russel Price Transport, MACKAY, Q
 

Ranged increased from 1.6km/litre to 1.97km/litre, an 18.78% saving in fuel.


 


Kart Racing


Steve – Network Car Rentals
 

Races Go-Karts.  Using Bitron Engine Formulation motor revs at 1610rpm, compared with other competitors’ 1580rpm.  Never had to replace motor.
 
Also dyno tested 2005 Subaru WRX before and after using Bitron products.  Torque range and peak horsepower increased dramatically.
 
Inspected pistons removed from his racing motorcycle and was surprised to find them in as-new condition.


 


Fishing Trawler


Brian Rogers – Brian Rogers Marine Engineering, BELMONT, Q
 

Using Bitron Engine Formulation and Diesel Fuel Conditioner in 360HP Cummins-powered trawler
 
Initially saved 5% in fuel consumption.  With continued use over a two year period, savings gradually improved through 10%, 15%, 20% and eventually in excess of 30%.  After 30,000 hours Cummins traded-in the motor to rebuild and re-sell it.  Cummins stated that despite the high number of hours the motor had performed, it needed NO reconditioning before they re-sold it.


 


Truck Diesel Savings


John Galea – Johnny Farming Co. – MACKAY, Q
 
Contract with Mackay Brick & Tile, running two Western trucks Brisbane to Mackay
 

Trialling Diesel Fuel Conditioner over same distance with the same load and drivers, saved 20% on fuel.  Now buys all Bitron products (Diesel Fuel Conditioner, Engine Formulation and EP Metal Treatment) and recommends using Engine Formulation in conjunction with Diesel Fuel Conditioner for optimum results.
 
John also operates a shrimp farm and uses Bitron products in his tractors and other equipment.  When an unattended tractor running a stationary pump lost all of its coolant, John was surprised to find the overheated tractor still running when he returned.  It is his firm belief that Bitron Lubricants EP20 Engine treatment saved his tractor from the usual damage and likely seizing due to overheating.


 


Drilling Rig Testimonial


Jimmy Marr – EMERALD, Q
 Heavy vehicle diesel fitter & drilling company owner/operator
 

Having worked with diesel engines my entire life I could see the need for a metal treatment that could not only save on fuel consumption but at the same time reduce wear and tear on the machinery.  Both these factors have become extremely important since beginning my own drilling company.  I decided to try Bi-Tron to determine its cost-effectiveness, using a 2 stroke Detroit, 400 horsepower engine compressor, driving at constant speed at high idle 12 hours per day.  I used Engine Formulation in the motor, EP Metal Treatment in the gearbox and Diesel Fuel Conditioner in the fuel.  As this compressor runs at a constant power and is stationary on a drill rig, it makes for a trial with little variation and changing conditions to consider, and of course greater accuracy.
 
The engine driving the 900CFM/350 PSI, 2 stage sullair compressor consumed:
 
Before Bi-Tron: 41 litres diesel per hour, after Bi-Tron: 34 litres diesel per hour
 
With this fuel saving Bi-Tron pays for itself and I now use the products in all of my machines


 

My name is John Keller.

I run a delivery service around Bendigo. I have two delivery vehicles on the go.
Before I was introduced to Bi-Tron the truck was getting 3 to 4km/l on gas. It now gets 6 to nearly 8km/l. The fuel conditioner is fed into the manifold by a dropper. It costs about half a cent to use the Bi-Tron and the rest goes in my pocket.
My 79 Toyota Cresida now runs in unleaded and saves me 3 cents a litre with Bi-Tron added in to every tank full. Before Bi-Tron I used to get 4 km/l, now I get 6-7km/l.

20th February 1998

Update on our testimonial of the 19th December 1997.
3 Months later.

The fuel costs for our trawler CURRINGA has now dropped from the $3010 before Bi-Tron for the ten day trip trawling to a now very pleasing $2100 per ten day trip.

Our commercial fishing vessel powered by a V8/92 G.M. Marine Diesel of 440BHP and has a fairly set operation from port to relatively the same area of the reef. Pre Bi-Tron costs were $850 per trip.
Now after two months of operating with Bi-Tron, the same trip now costs $650 to re fuel.I have now put the 2*4*6 Bi-Tron Metal Treatment into the gearboxes on both vessels.

Another update August 1999 (20 months since first use of Bi-Tron).

The trawler's operation has now gone to fourteen-day trip on the same original litres of fuel (was a 10 day trip), That works out to be a 40% improvement.

The Bi-Tron Company informed us some time ago that the Bi-Tron Products were being improved: I believe that this extra gain is through the improved products.

I own a TM magna Wagon.

I was out at K-Mart shopping and saw a sign on a car with a phone number, it read, Save money on your fuel costs. Being on a pension and making frequent trips to visit my family costing $90 a round trip. I rang this number next day, and my car was introduced to Bi-Tron. The trip now costs me $50-$60 with fuel conditioner in. A saving of $34 every time I go on the same trip. My car runs much quieter and smoother, making the trip much more enjoyable.

When my new Mercedes bought in June 2000 had done slightly over 4,000 kms, I Bi-tronised it with Engine Formulation and Gasoline Conditioner. I was told that the first service would be around the 15,000 km mark.
My car is equipped with an onboard computer to analyze the conditions that the vehicle is operated under. The service requirement is then calculated via this computer and a read out is available from the Speedo to tell me how many more kms I can drive before a service is needed.
At around 17,000 kms it indicated that there was another 1,500 kms before the service is needed.
I was concerned so I called the service department for assurance that I could by the onboard computer. The service manager could not give me the assurance because the average service requirement for the first service is from 15,000 to 22,500 kms.
He quickly booked me in for a service a week later. By then my Speedo read 27,698 kms with the computer indicating that there were another 1,500 kms to go before it needs servicing. After the service, I requested for and was given a letter assuring me that all systems checked OK.
You see, just by adding one bottle of Engine Formulation and a few bottles of Gasoline Conditioner, it almost doubled the kilometers I can drive before a service is needed. For around $100 worth of products, I saved hundreds of dollars on maintenance alone!
After the first service, my mechanic, Vass, added 2.4.6 Metal Treatment and Tyre Safety Solution in the car for me.
It is such a pleasure to drive with Bi-Tron in my car!

I have seen all types of products as a mechanic and heard of all the quick fix stories you could probably hear. But unfortunately the quick fixes are going to need further attention fairly soon and most products when used actually add to the problem in the long term.
Bi-Tron is the only product that I have used that has exceeded my expectations, and here are some excellent results achieved since using the Bi-Tron range of products.
A 1980 Sigma 2L increased mileage by 120km, and is now getting 540km per tank.
A 1995 Nissan Pulsar now getting 470km to > tank of fuel, up by 110km.
A 1986 fairmont Ghia now getting 700km per tank, up by 100km.
Engine noise and diff noises are dramatically reduced, and stay that way. Bi-Tron products have increased the life expectancy and mileage like I have never seen before.
Im so glad that Bi-Tron was introduced to me.

Thank you.

My highly modified Kawasaki GPZ has used Bi-Tron products for over two years with fantastic results. I punish the bike with burnouts, track days and hard road riding. It has never let me down.
I use Bi-Tron Engine Formulation with Shell Advance Oil. I use Bi-Tron Gasoline Conditioner with unleaded fuel in the tank. I use Bi-Tron Penetrating Lubricant on my chain, suspension linkages and many other places on the bike. I use Bi-Tron Tyre Safety Solution in the tyres for road riding. I use Bi-Tron 2.4.6 Metal Treatment in my front forks and soak my head stem and wheel bearings also.I use Bi-Tron Dry Wash to keep my bike clean and polished.
With Bi-Tron Engine Formulation the engine temperature runs lower. There is less friction and wear in the engine. There is more power generated and the clutch does not slip.
With Bi-Tron Fuel Conditioner I have gained an extra 120kms per tank, even on a hard thrash down The Great Ocean Road and back.
Bi-Tron Penetrating Lubricant stays on my chain and does not attract dust.
I have never had a flat with Bi-Tron TSS (unfortunately total burnouts are the exception)
After a hard run on the track with Bi-Tron 2.4.6 Metal Treatment in my forks I suffer no effects due to heat build up. The forks run a lot cooler. Rolling resistance in the wheel bearings and steering feel is fantastic.
With Bi-Tron Dry Wash I keep my bike clean and polished without spraying a drop of water on the bike. No problems with that wet stuff. (I hate that).
I have no hesitations in recommending any of these products for motorcycle use. I use all the products in my 2001 Moto Guzzi Jackal as well.
Both of my modified road cars use all the products also, with all the same benefits gained.
With Bi-Tron I know I am saving money, prolonging the life of my vehicles and the big one for me, helping the environment.

Thanks Bi-Tron.





 

I operate a HITACHI (KH 100) DRAG LINE Machine in New Zealand.

The following tests were conducted on this machine.

The temperatures were taken with an electronic gauge, which is extremely accurate.

It shows that by using Bi-Tron 2*4*6 Metal Treatment, we have achieved reduced operating temperatures and wear. That is, heat will cause the metal to expand and so increase the level of friction and wear, which will in turn, contribute to the heat and further expanding of the metal creating more friction, and so on.
 

Hydraulic Oil Temperature Tested on 4th @ 10.00am.

Winch Motor =71deg. C

Hydraulic Pump =66 deg. C


On 19th 10.00am 12 litres of Bi-Tron 2*4*6 was added to the tank.


Hydraulic Oil temperature Tested on 28th @ 11.00am.

Winch Motor = 51deg. C

Hydraulic Pump = 44deg. C


The Bi-Tron 2*4*6 Metal Treatment helps break this cycle and in turn is a great preventative maintenance program.

Thank you Bi-Tron.

Tom Moody.
