Re: QMI Engine Treatment Longevity Test

Dear Mr. Willis: Results of test to determine evidence of QMI Engine Treatment PTFE in cylinder bores and piston skirts after 50,000 miles of engine operation. The test consisted of a constant pre-load on the piston skirts to the representative cylinder bore. The total running time was 480 hours at 120 MPH. The test was conducted at room temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit. A Pontiac 350 engine was the base engine. The test was started and 5,640 equivalent miles were placed on the engine. The PHASE 1 portion was performed at 5,640 Equivalent Miles. With a constant of 35 pounds inch pre-load, resistance was 23 pounds sliding. Engine was reassembled and QMI Engine Treatment added. The PHASE 2 portion was performed at 26,400 Equivalent Miles. With a constant of 35 pounds inch pre-load, resistance was 9 pounds sliding. Engine was reassembled and oil was changed without adding QMI Engine Treatment. The PHASE 3 portion was performed at 57,000 Equivalent Miles. With a constant of 35 pounds inch pre-load, resistance was 14 pounds sliding. CONCLUSION: In the above test, the resistance was reduced from 23 pounds sliding before adding QMI Engine Treatment (PHASE 1) to 9 pounds sliding after adding QMI Engine Treatment (PHASE 2), and remained at a reduced 14 pounds sliding at 57,000 Equivalent Miles (PHASE 3). The above findings clearly demonstrate the presence of PTFE in cylinder bores and piston skirts after 50,000 miles of engine operation.
Sincerely, Cliff Gottlob Technician
