“BROQUET" FUEL CATALYST Research that led to the Broquet Fuel Catalyst was started in 1941 when Henry Broquet was involved in the operation and maintenance of Hurricane aircraft present- ed by Britain to aid the Russian war‘effort. The Hurricane's engine was designed for higher octane fuel than was available at the time, and therefore a suitable fuel catalyst had to be developed. Since WWII, the Broquet fuel device has been further developed for use with any petrol, diesel or LPG engine and is now exported throughout the world. The many applications for the catalyst include motor- cycles, cars, trucks, boats, etc. The Broquet is a compound of metals, of which tin forms a major component. When placed in the engine fuel system, the 22- mm-diameter cones will save fuel costs and improve the performance of all engines using petrol, LPG, diesel or oil as fuel. - There is no doubt that the test results "ECO GEM" FUEL ENHANCER We have in our possession literally pages provided to NEXUS are most impressive— FUEL CATALYSTS AND tems, tanks, lines, injector nozzles and ENHANCERS carburettors.

Proudly produced in Australia, Eco Gem is designed for use in leaded petrol, unlead- ed petrol and diesel, in cars, trucks, boats, motor bikes and lawnmowers. Based on 90 per cent ethanol, Eco Gem works by raising the octane level of the fuel. It oxygenates the fuel, producing a more complete combustion. Ethanol is one of the third groups of fuel additives—oxy- genates—used to raise the octane level of fuels (see NEXUS 2#26). To resolve the problems associated with heat-generated meltdown of engine compo- nents, Eco Gem contains a small amount of brass upper-cylinder lubricant to disperse heat. Eco Gem coats and lubricates the pis- ton bore and helps prevent engine oil enter- ing the combustion chamber. The manufacturers also claim that Eco Gem will increase the engine power by 20 per cent. A 250 ml bottle of Eco Gem treats 500 litres of fuel. In other words, add 10 ml to every 20 litres of fuel. According to Eco Gem, the Brisbane Waters ferry, which travels the waters near the Gosford/Central Coast, NSW area, saved 24 per cent on (diesel) fuel costs over a three-week period.
