Comments:
Fuel consumption, smoothness, and operating temperature were monitored. "Clean" Auto-Rx® tested 7.1 cSt at 100C. Spectrography was blind to the fatty acid ester base. Auto-Rx® provided a natural solvency and dispersant effect to include boundary layer lubrication evidenced by a drop in wear levels in both A and C. B wear metals are normal, slight rise due to poor baseline sample mixing. B sat idle for months affecting NOX. Most notable was the rise in OXD(31%avg) and drop in NOX(26%avg).

The Auto-Rx® natural micel action carried the wear materials safely to the oil filters until drain. Combustion efficiency increased through improved piston ring and valve seal. Fuel dilution dropped in both B and C while A had a worn O2 sensor. A minimum 7% fuel. Economy gain was noted in C.

Oil filter visual analysis for A and B was not instructive. C showed a high load of carbonaceous particulates. Continued fuel economy and wear data are ongoing for all three test vehicles. B had gasket leaks that sealed after use of Auto-Rx®. C had a tapping lifter (from carbonaceous buildup) that ceased within 3 minutes of installation of Auto-Rx®.

Conclusion:
This product performs as advertised and does not negatively affect the host oil or engine based on the results above. This product is more effective than a solvent flush and has none of the negatives associated with it.
