This document discusses fuel additives and when they are needed or not needed. It states that fuel additives are available for petrol and diesel engines in India and are made by companies like Chevron and 3M. The primary functions of additives are to clean fuel injectors, reduce exhaust gases, and prevent corrosion. Additives can boost performance and efficiency while extending engine life. Additives may be needed in extreme hot or cold weather, especially anti-gel additives for diesel in cold weather. Additives can also be used when a vehicle will be idle for a long time to help it start smoothly. New vehicles generally do not need additives for the first 1-2 years, and additives should be avoided while a vehicle

1. Fuel Additives

4. Do you really need additives?
In the Indian market, fuel additives are available both for petrol and
diesel engines. Chevron and 3M are the key players in the category
of fuel additives and have a range of products catering to different
engines and their specific needs. The primary function of fuel
additives is to enhance the performance and fuel efficiency of a
vehicle by cleaning fuel injectors, reducing the exhaust gases by
managing engine knocking, and preventing corrosion of fuel lines.
All these functions play an important role in boosting both
performance and fuel efficiency while enhancing the longevity of
the engine.

5. Situations where you require fuel
additives
If you reside in a region where weather conditions
oscillate between extreme summer and winter, your car
might require fuel additive. This is specifically true for
diesel car owners in the winter season when the
temperature plummets to an extremely low level. In
such harsh requirements, you should go for an anti-gel
fuel additive which will keep the diesel from gelling. The
petrol engine, on the other hand, might not really
require additives owing to its spark engine technology.
Still in the case of a petrol engine, one can use the
octane booster to enhance the performance although it
will benefit only high-performance cars
Another favorable scenario for
the use of additive is when your
car is going to be stranded for a
long time. Using the fuel
stabilizer in such conditions is a
good idea as it helps the car to
start smoothly even after a long
idle period. In addition, as your
car ages, you can use a
cleanser for fuel injectors
occasionally in order to
maintain the performance and
extend the overall life of your
vehicle

6. Situations where you don't require fuel
additives
You do not require any fuel additive at all is when
your car is new. For the first year or even two years
of ownership, it is redundant to use fuel additive as it
is going to add no value to either performance or
fuel-efficiency. You should be especially careful
about the use of additives in the warranty period as
the manufacturer has a right to deny a warranty
claim if it is found that some supplement is used to
boost performance and fuel efficiency of the car. It is
therefore recommended that as long as the warranty
period of the car is active, you should avoid using
fuel additives in your car.
During normal weather
conditions, the addition of fuel
additives is not going to bring
anything new to the table and
should be avoided. Even if you are
a die-hard fan of additives and
strongly believe in these boosters,
make sure you do not use them on
a regular basis.
