zMAX Outperforms Latest Industry Initiative for Improved Gas Mileage by as Much as 15 Times

CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 10 Dreams can come true -- zMAX, the only metal-saturating lubricant on the market, can save consumers millions of dollars on gasoline! Conducted under the hot Nevada sun by the Automotive Testing Development Service, two automotive industry-standard SAE J13-21 field economy tests confirmed zMAX significantly improves fuel economy. As the sole product available that "soaks into the metal" to disperse carbon build-up and provide unmatched lubrication, zMAX boosts car performance by reaching places other products cannot. For decades, the automotive industry has searched for ways to improve car performance. With the introduction of SAE 5W-20 oil, Ford Motor Co. is touting its newest move to increase fuel economy by 0.6 percent. However, testing results just released prove that with zMAX, automobile owners can increase fuel economy over 15 times more than Ford's latest initiative. While recent industry-approved track and lab tests reveal zMAX significantly improves fuel economy zMAX customers have reported gasoline saving far in excess of recent test results. "The outcome of the zMAX tests is truly historical and we are pleased to deliver a remarkable product people used to only dream about -- one that saves consumers money and improves the performance of their vehicles," said Ed Rachanski Sr., technical director of Oil-Chem Research Corp., manufacturer of zMAX. "For more than 50 years, only a select few racers and industry insiders have had access to zMAX. Now that we have made it available at retail, the response to zMAX has been phenomenal. Our customers write us daily with amazing stories about zMAX, they love the product, and our most recent tests confirm the product's significance in the automotive industry." zMAX is a unique "metal saturating lubricant" made from the highest quality mineral oil -- one of the purest forms of petroleum. zMAX is reformed at the molecular level, producing scientifically modified micro-lubricating molecules with new physical properties that are smaller and attracted to heat and metal. This scientifically modified molecular structure allows the product to soak into metal for peak performance in any internal combustion engine. As a proven industry tested product, zMAX's track record includes the modified CRC L-38 test, the Claude Travis TMC/SAE Procedure II Truck Test, the SAE J1321 Type II Fuel Consumption Test and numerous field and laboratory tests. Approved industry groups, including API (American Petroleum Institute), SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) and ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) recognize these tests, which reveal zMAX significantly increases fuel efficiency. Racing professionals and auto enthusiasts including Racing Hall of Fame Legend A.J. Foyt, Global Aviator and Voyager Pilot Dick Rutan, 2000 NHRA Pro Stock Drag Bike Champion Angelle Savoie and Builder of the Shelby Cobra, Viper and Series One, Carroll Shelby, have used and attribute many of their successes to zMAX.
