Moose,
I believe it turns the water and other nasties into a combustable product which then gets burned away through the big noisey thing.
Depsol's (Dom) the man to talk to, if your nice to him he'll probably supply you with some as well.

Soltron Enzymes disrupt the fuel/water interface, the food site for hydro carbon utilising microbes and shear the asphaltene/maltene molecules in tank bottom sludge that harbour Sulphate Reducing Bacteria.

With this disruption some of the water is trapped, passed through the system and burnt during combustion. How much water is dispursed we are uncertain of.

Re: Does SOLTRON.......

I've just realised that I spelt Soltron wrong, surprised nobody picked me up on that!

In response to Clive:
a) 'things are quiet on the Moose front'---That is because they are!!
b) This is a tale of woe, although I have not told the tale yet!!!!!
c) We have nearly got the name sorted out, at last.

Depsol:

Would Soltron do any good when added to a full tank during winterisation when the boat is static, or must it be added to the tank during an active season when more diesel is added thus mixing the additive more thoroughly?
cheers.

This trapped water...

If the engine is run for short periods, infrequently as in a yacht, is there a chance that the water which was in the tank or separater and is now 'trapped in the fuel' will remain in contact with engine/injection pump parts and cause them to rust?

I can see the advantages for a motor boat (more likely a fishing or other commercial craft) that is used all day, every day; but I'm worried about using it in my boat.

Any further advice?

Cheers,

Jerry

Re: This trapped water...

The amount of water that passes through is so small it will not cause any rust espec as diesel is a good anti corrosive and the amount of oxygen needed to activate corrosion in the system will be minute also.

If anything it will prolong the life of the pump by clearing the fuel system so there is no added wear and tear, i.e the pump is not under any extra load.

If anything it will help the situation more than hinder it. Thats why Soltron are now asked to be involved with long distance events where some engine manufacturers are stumping up an engine as part of the sponsorship.
