Including but not limited to: Ford Powerstroke, Dodge Cummins, GM Duramax, Saab, Volkswagen, Audi, Caterpillar, and Detroit. Stic•tion [stik-shen] noun Stiction is the gummy, sticky residue of caked-on oil varnish that builds-up inside diesel injectors over time. Symptoms include: hard starts, hesitation, excessive black smoke, poor acceleration, and rough idling. The STICTION ELIMINATOR STORY Stiction Eliminator, was first developed for International Truck and Engine to resolve an issue with the injectors on the Ford Powerstroke 6.0L engine. Having been tested since 2004, Stiction Eliminator has been found to be successful in restoring 90% of injectors and turbos diagnosed as “failed”. Stiction Eliminator is safe and effective in ALL diesel engines, eliminating the built-up varnish and baked on oil (stiction), that accumulates over time. Thanks to Stiction Eliminator, when used with your next oil change, this product will eliminate stiction and also clean everything the oil comes in contact with including the turbo, rings and oil pump. After a treatment of Stiction Eliminator, your vehicle will have had a complete cleaning on the oil side of your engine, showing improved power and compression, and reduced lifter and valve noise. Powered by Science, Stiction Eliminator will remove stiction from your diesel engine, restoring your falsely diagnosed failed injectors. Stiction Eliminator is also used as a preventative treatment to avoid stiction injector problems down the road. Injector designs To increase efficiency, diesel engine manufacturers have increased the pressure at the tip of the injector. Older engines are in the 2000-4000 psi range, where the new diesel engines are as high as 35,000 psi. This increase in pressure atomizes the diesel fuel and provides for a better and more efficient burn (more power, less particulates). Why injectors fail Unfortunately, there are some problems that come with this injector design improvement. Higher pressures and higher temperatures have a burning effect on the engine’s oil. The engine oil is used as hydraulic fluid to push the injector plunger which in turn pushes out the diesel fuel and atomizes it. Over time, a thin layer of oxidized oil shows up as sluggish acceleration. HYDRAULIC INJECTOR As times goes on, it actually stops the injector from working completely. This is the point at which the injector needs OIL SIDE POW E RE D BY SCIE N CE | D IE SE L O IL AD DI TI V E How it works 4 Oil fired (hydraulic) injectors, use the motor oil to activate the injector. Oil bathed injectors, the motor oil is used to lubricate the injectors. Electronic Injectors, the motor oil never touches the injectors. While the motor oil in electronic injectors never touches the injectors themselves, Stiction Eliminator will still clean everything the oil comes in contact with including the stiction build up on the turbo, rings, and oil pump. With non hydraulic injectors, it is strongly recommended to use both Stiction Eliminator AND Diesel Extreme for a complete internal cleaning which will provide the most significant results. FUEL SIDE replaced. CLEAN! WITH STICTION How to repair failing injectors A treatment of Hot Shot’s Secret Stiction Eliminator is the best solution for a failing injector. Stiction Eliminator has been tested since 2004 and has been found to be effective in restoring injectors and turbos. During its testing, trucks having performance problems were hooked up to a diagnostic computer and tested. The computer showed anywhere from 1 to 6 injectors needing to be replaced. Stiction Eliminator was then added to the engine oil. The trucks were run about 100 miles and the computers were retested. 90% of the time, all the injectors tested OK. The owners noticed more power, and a smoother running engine. The other 10% of the trucks when tested showed improvement in injector function and performance, but not a complete cure. For the most effective results, we recommend using Stiction Eliminator with a synthetic oil, like Blue Diamond, although it is not necessary. After the initial clean up, use a half dose every third oil change for preventative maintenance. (Preventative maintenance dose: 1 qt. bottle for pick-up trucks, 2 qt. bottle for semi-trucks). It is safe to use the prevention dosage for maintenance purposes even if there are no current symptoms of stiction. Added benefits Stiction Eliminator will clean other parts of the engine as well. The additives in Stiction Eliminator will remove the deposits in the engine and turbo and thus allow them to work more efficiently. The additives will also fortify your existing oil and help it to work more effectively. ...I’ve had it in this truck for 1200 miles and this thing purrs like a kitten. When I first put it in, it belched smoke and black soot like you wouldn’t believe. The guys down there at the Jiffy Lube place had to open up all six doors and get my truck out. The guy said, ‘I don’t know about this Hot Shot’s Secret, what it’s doing to your engine.’ And I said, ‘Well just let it run.’ And it ran like that for about five minutes, and then all of a sudden the smoke cleared up and like I said, it purrs like a kitten... So I strongly recommend this stuff!” - John G. HotShotSecret.com 800.341.6516 POW E RE D BY SCIE N CE | D IE SE L F U E L ADDI TI V E The most powerful on the market!

Diesel Extreme is safe in all diesel engines: semi-trucks, pick-up trucks, farm equipment and autos. Including but not limited to: Ford Powerstroke, Dodge Cummins, GM Duramax, Saab, Volkswagen, Audi. How it works Diesel Extreme is a concentrated cetane improver which also contains a highly effective fuel stability package. It will tremendously upgrade power and performance in all diesel equipment, increase mileage and provide maintenance economy. Storage stability of fuels will be greatly increased and diesel engines will be kept in a much cleaner and maintenance-free condition. In addition, Diesel Extreme has a stabilizing system to improve storage stability that will prevent polymerization and breakdown of hydrocarbons which results in gum and sludge formation. The dispersant contained in Diesel Extreme prevents insoluble residues from forming, which are sometimes produced when mixing fuels from different sources. Corrosion is prevented by an inhibitor which produces a protective non-deposit-forming film on metal surfaces in the fuel system and a neutralizer, which neutralizes corrosive acids that are formed during combustion. The Hot Shot’s Secret Diesel Extreme formula has just recently been improved, tripling its strength compared to what it was previously. Diesel Extreme is an EXTREMELY potent fuel side detergent/cleaner, cetane improver, rust and corrosion inhibitor, moisture dispersant, and fuel stabilizer that is much stronger than retail type products. ...I saw your episode recently about Hot Shot Extreme so I decided to spend the cash and buy it. I have so far run 1.5 tanks of diesel with HSS added and my truck is almost back to 100%! I think it will be back to perfect after running the rest of my tank through it. I am a true believer of this product and highly recommend it! -TRUCKU Forum HotShotSecret.com 800.341.6516 POW E RE D BY SCIE N CE | D IE SE L F U E L ADDI TI V E Make an EVERY DAY fill up a PREMIUM diesel fill up! Superior power boost EDT EVERYDAY DIESEL TREATMENT Benefits • Boosts cetane up to 7 points • Improves power and performance • Increases fuel economy • Stabilizes fuel • Adds lubricity • Prevents rust and corrosion • Detergent • Moisture dispersant • Acid neutralizer USE IN ALL DIESEL FUEL Daily fuel formula Treat rate Available sizes 1 oz. treats 25 gallons of diesel fuel 4 oz. 12 pack 16 oz. round bottle 16 oz. squeeze bottle 8 16 oz. bottle treats 400 gallons of diesel fuel Uses: EDT can be used in all diesel engines because it is completely ashless and has no adverse effects on engine components. It can also be used in fuel oil for more efficient fuel utilization and a more trouble-free furnace operation without producing any harmful emissions. EDT is extremely effective in middle distillate fuels to improve combustion and ignition efficiency, enhance fuel economy and maintain fuel in a clean, stabilized condition. The sulfur content of this diesel fuel additive does not exceed 15 ppm. This diesel fuel additive complies with the federal low sulfur content requirements for use in diesel motor vehicles and nonroad engines. How it works The cetane improver in EDT consists of special nitrates which are prooxidants and which speed up the oxidative process of fuels during combustion, giving more power and improved mileage. EDT provides significantly increased ignition efficiency with all diesel fuels. Corrosion is prevented by an inhibitor which produces a protective nondeposit-forming film on metal surfaces in the fuel system and which neutralizes corrosive acids formed during combustion. An important component of EDT is a special emulsifier which disperses condensed moisture. Condensed water in fuels is a major cause of rust, icing in cold weather and the growth of microorganisms in warm weather. Operation of diesel engines is noticeably improved when corrosion and growth of bacteria are prevented. EDT contains an exclusive polar lubricity additive to prevent wear without altering fuel viscosity. Fuel treated with EDT is a “PREMIUM” diesel fuel. Performance characteristics Power and fuel economy are increased as fuel burns more evenly and cleanly. Misfiring is controlled. When ignition improves, emissions are reduced and noise levels are lowered. Controlling the pressure build-up allows more complete burning of the refractive molecules in the fuel, which steal power and produce deposits and wear. EDT is a concentrated cetane improver which will tremendously upgrade power and performance in all diesel equipment, increasing fuel and maintenance economy. Stability of fuels will be greatly increased and diesel engines will be kept in a much cleaner, more maintenance-free condition. EDT users ALWAYS get at least a 2% fuel mileage increase! It only costs about 2 cents per treated gallon. Two percent of a gallon of diesel fuel is about 8 cents, which means users save about 6 MORE cents! Think of it this way - you’re getting paid 6 cents per gallon to keep your system clean, dry and lubricated.

Nano-lubricant/engine restorative FRICTION REDUCER Benefits • Reduces coefficient of friction • Eliminates metal-to-metal contact • Reduces operating temperature • Reduces noise and vibration • Reduces machine failures and repair costs • Improves fuel economy • Prevents rust and corrosion USE IN ALL OIL Treat rate Available sizes 10 1 qt. bottle 1 gal. jug 5 gal. bucket 55 gal. drum Uses: Friction Reducer will increase fluid flow in power steering and hydraulic systems, like those found in old tractors and construction equipment. Friction Reducer is beneficial in all diesel or gasoline engines including: semi-trucks, pick-up trucks, farm/lawn equipment, motorcycles, ATV’s, and automobiles. How it works The metal in a machine is nearly always positively charged while Friction Reducer is negatively charged. Attachment of a thin layer of Friction Reducer to all metals is natural and not dependent upon temperature, pressure or anything else; except that there must be oil circulation to establish a layer of Friction Reducer on the metal. Friction Reducer has absolutely no effect on the metal itself. It is not an extreme pressure agent, so it will NOT corrode the surface of metal as do other chlorinated or sulfurized oil additives. It is not a polymer additive so it will not artificially thicken oil. Friction Reducer is a pure ester, which has much greater lubricity than oil. It is so effective in reducing friction because it creates a carpet of ester on all of the metal surfaces, preventing metal to metal contact. It can be said that esters slide upon themselves much more freely than oil does. When a sufficient amount of esters are added to oil, the result is that the oil becomes as slippery as esters themselves. The unique film provided by the negative polarity of the Friction Reducer attached to positively charged metals is the secret to all of Friction Reducer benefits over older ester technology. Hot Shot’s Secret Friction Reducer also increases fluid flow in power steering and hydraulic systems, like those found in old tractors and construction equipment. Hot Shot’s Secret Friction Reducer is a unique lubricity agent, featuring a negatively charged synthetic ester that tenaciously attaches itself to all metal parts that it comes in contact with inside a machine. Friction Reducer works immediately in ALL engine automatic transmissions, power-steering pumps, differentials, and hydraulic systems. ...I’ve noticed cooler operating temperatures, primarily that the engine runs so smooth and so quiet. I know that the Hot Shot’s Secret is definitely helping me out! My fuel economy is outstanding. I’m getting on average between 12-13 miles per gallon.

Treat rate COMPATIBLE WITH ALL DIESEL ENGINES Available sizes 12 1 quart bottle 1 quart 12-pack Uses: TBN Booster is compatible with all diesel engines and can be used in conjunction with Blue Diamond Engine Oil or any commercially available diesel engine oil (synthetic or conventional). When used with a bypass engine oil filter, it ensures that additives for neutralizing acid and dispersing soot are not depleted. How it works TBN stands for Total Base Number. It is a measure of how much active detergent and dispersive additive is left in your engine’s oil. A TBN rating of 6-9 is typical. As miles are added, the TBN number decreases as the detergent and dispersive additives are used up. When TBN is less than 5, your oil has lost its effective capacity to neutralize acid and breakdown dirt. Hot Shot’s Secret TBN Booster was formulated to extend the oil drain intervals of vehicles needing extended service when used in conjunction with our Blue Diamond Engine Oil or other diesel engine oils. TBN Booster can be used with synthetic or conventional engine oils. Many drivers are using bypass engine oil filters to extend the drain interval of the engine oil. The engine oil is kept clean but the additives are depleted. Adding TBN Booster will resolve this issue. It will provide the engine oil the additives to effectively neutralize the acid and disperse the soot. Servicing and maintenance times can be significantly reduced due to the increase in neutralization number added to the engine oil.  TBN Booster will raise your diesel engine’s oil TBN by up to 6 points and save 2-4 oil changes per year. Extend the life of your oil Over the life of your oil, the TBN number decreases as additives are used up. An oil analysis every 20,000 miles will monitor your TBN number. When TBN is less than 5, add Hot Shot’s Secret TBN and your TBN will be raised an additional 6 points. This will re-establish your oil’s effectiveness and is a low cost and low effort option to extend time between oil changes. Use Hot Shot’s Secret TBN Booster to save 2-4 oil changes per year. Hot Shot’s Secret TBN Booster is a diesel engine oil detergent booster that extends oil drain intervals for drivers desiring less downtime and lower costs.

For automatic transmissions TSE Transmission Stiction Eliminator Benefits • Eliminates stiction from all automatic transmissions • Reduces coefficient of friction • Smooths gear shifting • Fixes shift cycle • Minimizes metal-to-metal contact • Eliminates rust and corrosion • Improves fuel economy • Reduces transmission fluid leakage and extends oil life • Reduces operating temperatures • Reduces emissions • Reduces noise and vibration • Protects rubber seals Transmission Stiction Eliminator works with your transmission fluid to help it last longer and perform better. SAFE FOR ALL AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS Treat rate Available sizes 1 quart bottle 1 quart 12-pack 14 Works best when added during a fresh fluid change. Uses: Transmission Stiction Eliminator is safe to use in all automatic transmissions pick-up trucks, farm/lawn equipment, motorcycles, ATVs, and autos. How it works The requirement for higher performance transmission lubricants has increased considerably in recent years due to the introduction of new and sophisticated transmission systems. The transmission fluid serves as a hydraulic fluid, heat transfer fluid, and lubricating fluid. Over time, varnish and sticky residue can form, inhibiting the performance of the fluid. Transmission Stiction Eliminator with a high-performance ester formula is a unique lubricity and cleaning agent that tenaciously attaches itself to all metal parts that it comes in contact with inside the transmission. The metal in a transmission is nearly always positively charged while Transmission Stiction Eliminator is negatively charged. Thus the strong polarity pulls deposits off the metal surfaces and puts them back into solution. Attachment of a thin layer of Transmission Stiction Eliminator to all metals occurs naturally and is not dependent `upon temperature, pressure, or other conditions. Reduced friction on critical moving parts lowers the operating temperature and increases transmission life. Science of Slippage Transmission fluid can get really hot. At high temperatures, oil burns, breaks down, and leaves behind a gummy, sticky varnish that we call “stiction”. Stiction in your transmission can cause slippage. Adding a lubricant often just creates Hot Shot’s Secret Transmission sticky friction, but it doesn’t remove it. Transmission Stiction Stiction Eliminator attaches to the metal parts of your transmission, Eliminator is a digs underneath, and separates the stiction from the metal. low-viscosity ester One quart of Hot Shot’s Secret Transmission Stiction Eliminator that dissolves added to a slipping transmission will create smoother shifts additives that and improve efficiency that will be noticeable immediately. have deposited on the metal surfaces in the valve body. It helps your transmission fluid to perform better by keeping the additives in solution.
