Edan Farms has been using PowerUp for over 20 years in all our Semi-tractors. We have been a contractor for Fedex Ground running from 20-30 rigs nearly every day. Each truck travels over 200,000 per year.
One of the first things we noticed when we started using PowerUp is that our engines run cooler. Since using PowerUp, we have not had to overhaul an engine in less than 1 million miles and most we haven't overhauled in less than 1.4 million miles. When we do take the engine apart, it is always very clean, and wear is extremely minimal. In 20 years, we have not had a single differential gear failure due to lubrication.
With PowerUp, we extended our oil drains to 30,000 miles and could have probably run further if we had chosen to.
About 10 years ago, because of your presentation on KleenOil Filtration, we started adding these filter units to our engine. With the continuous purification of the oil and complete removal of water, we now have been able to extend oil drains to well over 300,000 miles per rig. We still sample each engine every 30,000 miles and have been very impressed with the condition of the oil even after these extended oil drains. We have never had an issue due to lubrication with any of the engines.
PowerUp and Kleenoil have saved us thousands upon thousands of dollars in oil changes, engine repairs and overhauls. Presumably, though we have never collected the data, we have saved thousands in fuel costs because the engines maintain their efficiency due to very low wear.
I personally maintain our engines and I am a believer in these products because I have seen the results. I would recommend them to anyone. Please feel free to have anyone call if they have any questions.

"We have 15 new buses from Volkswagen that we installed both the Kleenoil oil bypass filter system for the engine oil and and Kleenfuel fuel bypass filter systems on for the diesel fuel system. There has been a big push as of late on environmental issues in Sonora, Mexico by the State Governor Claudia Pavlovich. We feel that Kleenoil and Kleenfuel really have a positive impact on the environment. With both systems installed on each bus, the fuel economy has increased from 2.2 km per liter to 2.7 km per liter. This is a 22.7% increase in fuel economy! The 15 buses currently outfitted with both systems are now saving $11,500 USD per month on diesel fuel and $19,500 USD per year on oil change costs. Furthermore, on lubrication we are now saving 80% on lubricants and down time. This savings directly impacts our bottom line and is a great benefit to the environment due to the fact that we are now recycling our oil and burning cleaner fuel! Our plan is to keep outfitting our fleet with Kleenoil and Kleenfuel products until we have 100% of our fleet outfitted with both systems. The people from COMSA are handling the cartridge changes for us as well as the oil sampling that is sent to the third party lab for testing. We have been very pleased with the results!"

"We were changing our engine oil on our drilling rigs every 250-500 hours depending on the type of engine. When we tested the new Kleenoil filter system, we still had good oil at 5000 HOURS and made the decision to use the Kleenoil filter systems on all of our engines. We now change our oil at 2000 hours and have extended our oil life 8 times. Based on ISO standards, our oil at 1000 hours is better than new oil. One big question is how this affects warranties? None of these practices will affect our warranty."
