We all know that power equals acceleration, so how do we generate more power without modifications? Independent testing (Brisbane City Council’s certified testing facility) has shown that CEM’s Diesel Performance Pack has produced significantly faster acceleration times in a brand-new Isuzu DMax 4x4 ute. Acceleration times were recorded 4.6% faster under...
Over the years many of our customers tell us that after running Cost Effective Products through their vehicles and equipment they actually “run better than new!”(including noticeably improved fuel efficiency). Well, they’re dead right! And now, here’s the proof… It stands to reason that if you clean up a dirty engine, it’ll...
To assist with the ever increasing volume of orders being dispatched to the USA and internationally, it was time for CEM to engage the help of a well-established international distributor. Finding a business that could handle all the technical requests and was set up to handle large volumes of domestic...
Don’t allow fungi, bacteria and moulds to grow in your diesel fuel and cause serious engine damage! The safe, fast and easy way to kill diesel growth is with FTC Decarbonizer added to the fuel. FTC Decarbonizer is extremely effective in killing both the live organisms, and the highly resistant spores. It then...
Engine Blowby problems or Cylinder “Blow-by” (excessive crankcase pressure) is a common and worrying problem encountered by most truckies at some stage in their career. Concern is certainly justified, as it typically means an expensive engine rebuild is necessary, and this is usually recommended by mechanics and dealers. But, according to...
Time and time again, we are contacted by customers who have overheating problems with their diesel engines that they cannot rectify. Many have spent $3000 to $4000 on big core radiators, new water pumps, thermostats, fan hubs, chemical cleaning and more, yet have not fixed the problem. The typical pattern is that...
We continually hear of modern low emission, heavy duty truck engines having to be rebuilt at only 600,000km or less, and many stories of long periods out of service. One of the biggest issues in maintaining reliability is keeping the emission control equipment working properly. Normally, this just means keeping everything...
According to the laws of physics, power is the rate of performing work. When applied to a diesel powered coal mining fleet, an increase in power results in an increase in production. Of course, a production drive is a little more complicated, but never-the-less, more power is one method of...
The key to this is minimizing operational stresses within gearboxes, differentials, planetaries, etc, since the less stress and loadings placed on each individual part within components, the longer everything lasts. In this article, driveline maintenance and lubrication enhancements will be discussed. Stress reduction will require a lowering of the coefficient of...
Clean up & keep all systems clean. Maintain full lubrication. Protect against corrosion. Reduce component stress. The less stress and loadings placed on each individual part within engines, transmissions, etc, the longer everything lasts. Admittedly, while that’s easier said than done, it’s actually not hard at all! Let’s look at the...
