BEAT THE BIG FREEZE

ARE OFFERING

2 PREFERRED SUPPLIER BONUS POINTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR SPENT ON FLASHLUBE WINTER FUEL FORMULA IN MAY 2025

When cold weather hits, diesel fuel often starts gelling, resulting in the blocking of fuel lines and filters and causing rough running engines, hard starts and in some cases, a complete shutdown.

Flashlube Winter Fuel Formula is a highly effective cold diesel fuel flow improver, designed specifically to combat this problem.

The formula contains a highly concentrated anti-gelling additive, formulated to provide maximum cold temperature protection. This works to increase the effective flow range of diesel and bio-diesel fuels at low temperatures (to –15c), and inhibits and prevents the occurrence of wax crystal gelling.

BENEFITS:

■ Improves cold fuel flow ■ Prevents fuel gelling ■ Easier cold weather starting ■ Reduces misfiring ■ Fights fuel line freeze ■ Suitable for Biodiesel fuels ■ Suits ultra low sulphur diesel fuel ■ Improves thermal stability ■ Pour point depressant & wax modifier

■ Highly Concentrated (Treatment Rate of 100ML to 50L)

FOR BEST RESULTS:

■ Treat one tank of fuel prior to trip, to ensure maximum lubrication of fuel system components.

■ Add Flashlube Winter Formula when refilling, to ensure thorough mixing with fuel.

For more information, visit flashlube.com or call 1300 888 444.
