Follow These Tips to Save
Use Top Tier Fuel - Excelerator™ - From Express
The leading automotive companies created a standard for gasoline that would make their vehicles run better, longer, with more power and fewer emissions. Excelerator™ from Express was awarded "Top Tier Status" by the major car companies. We add twice the amount of cleaning detergents required by the EPA for ordinary gas.
The extra cleaning detergent in Excelerator™ cleans deposits that build up on your fuel injectors and intake valves. Deposits can lower gas mileage, cause starting problems, power loss and increase emissions.
