New Ignition Product is the Missing Link


    WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.--(AutomotiveWire)--Nov. 24, 1998-- Combustion Technology Products Corp. announced today an agreement to manufacture DirectHits(tm) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for distribution to original equipment manufacturers in the Asia Pacific.
    DirectHits(tm) is the brand name of Combustion Technology Products' new ignition capacitor, which when attached to non-resistor spark plugs, saves on fuel and increases performance. The combustion efficiency is accomplished when the product dramatically increases the electrical power of the spark during ignition, the "missing link" of consistent combustion. DirectHits(tm), using the company's patented technology, are the result of over ten years of vehicle testing.
    "...More power, better mileage, cleaner emissions...This product is a must for the off-roader", stated Norm Lenhart, senior editor for www.Off-Road.com, the Internet's premier off-road site.
    DirectHits(tm) were developed with the assistance of the Sandia National Laboratories "Ultra-High-Power Electromagnetics" Department in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Of the many patents on the product, the development of the insulating material used in the product is perhaps it's greatest breakthrough. This enhanced insulator allows the DirectHits(tm) product to withstand the substantial increase in power that is now coupled to the spark. The development of the insulator was accomplished with the assistance and support of Amoco Polymers, a division of Amoco Oil Company.
    DirectHits(tm) have been sold successfully in Mexico, where emissions problems have forced all vehicles to be parked two days a week. The product is now available in the United States by ordering at www.directhits.com or calling the company at 888/800-6700.
