Once the stabilizer has been installed, the emissions are reduced almost immediately after the remaining fuel in the carburetor or fuel injection supply system begin to pass thru the catalyst. A clean up time for the existing carbon in the engine down stream of the stabilizer will begin. Maximum efficiency is achieved after the vehicle has been driven between 200 and 1000 miles with the stabilizer installed. This produces more efficient burning of the fuel. As the fuel passes over the catalyst, the larger aggregates of hydrocarbon fuels are broken into smaller colloidal units.
Colloids are submicron sized particles that pass through filters.
Subtle electrical charges on the surface of the colloids also cause them to disperse. These very finely divided particles have greater total surface area and consequently give a faster and more complete burn in the engines combustion chamber.
