WHAT IS THE Fitch FUEL CATALYST?
The Fitch Fuel Catalyst is a pre combustion fuel treatment device the purpose of which is to improve combustion. The Fitch® Fuel Catalyst is a true catalyst in that it causes a reaction but is not consumed or affected in the process. Therefore it is not an additive as it puts nothing into the fuel. It is installed in the fuel line of any engine just like a fuel filter. It is a maintenance- free product, which will last for up to 400,000 kilometers or essentially, the life of the engine.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Testing by several leading laboratories have confirmed that the Fitch Fuel Catalyst is actually re-refining the fuel immediately prior to combustion. This is accomplished through a complex chemical reaction, which breaks the long chain hydrocarbons converting them to smaller, higher energy, and more combustible constituents, which burn more efficiently. This process is patented and proprietary to Advanced Power Systems International Inc.
WHAT ARE THE APPLICATIONS?
Any gasoline or diesel engine of any size may be treated with the Fitch Fuel Catalyst. Successful testing has also been accomplished on methanol, kerosene and propane. In summary, any equipment may be successfully treated with the Fitch Fuel Catalyst as long as the correct size unit is used. (Sufficient catalytic material must be present based on the fuel flow of the engine).
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE PRODUCT?
The combustion improvement caused by the presence of the Fitch Fuel Catalyst produces a number of benefits. Because the fuel is consumed more completely, less fuel is burned, emissions are lowered and power is increased. In addition, engine oil remains cleaner, longer because blow-by is reduced. Because carbon build up in the engine is also reduced the life of the engine is enhanced. The overall result is a more efficiently running engine.
The extent to which these benefits are obtained is a function of the age and condition of the engine, how the engine is being used and the quality of the fuel being burned.
SUMMARY OF BENEFITS
INCREASED FUEL ECONOMY, LOWER EMISSIONS, MORE POWER, LESS MAINTENANCE and ENHANCED ENGINE LIFE.
WHAT ARE THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS TO THE COMMERCIAL USER?
1. Improved fuel economy, on average 5% to 12% means substantial savings.
2. Lower emissions means complying with new state regulations and therefore less likelihood of a traffic citation for excess smoke. Less soot also means fewer truck washes and a cleaner trailer.
3. Increased power means better gradability and performance and less driver fatigue.
4. Less maintenance means fewer oil changes because the engine oil will stay cleaner, longer, as blow-by is reduced. Injectors will also stay cleaner.
5. Engine life is increased because carbon build-up is reduced.
In summary, all of these benefits add up to a significant reduction in operational expenses and a quick product payback.

Friends of the Escarpment Parks is a non-profit environmental community group working with Toowoomba City Council, National Parks and others to help improve the management of our escarpment and urban bushland parks.
FEP is a very active group of volunteers who like to make an impact in the management as well as the restoration of the bushland reserves around Toowoomba. The Friends develop and run various projects including weed removal workshops (working bees) each Monday morning from 9 am till noon and support local Parkcare Groups consisting of residents who help to restore their bushland parks once a month on weekends.
The Friends of the Escarpment Parks’ main activity is the removal of exotic woody weeds (chiefly lantana and privet) from the City’s smaller public bushland parks, which are typically about eight hectares in area. An innovative Root Blade has also been developed by a member of the Friends and has proven to be an effective tool to assist with the removal of weeds in appropriate areas.
Since 1994, the Friends have carried out rehabilitation work in Redwood Park, Jubilee Park, Prince Henry Drive, Tobruk Drive Park, Picnic Point Park, Duggan Park and Nielsen Park, as well as recently starting work in Echo Valley South Park. They have also cleared weeds from a large section of Hartmann’s Reserve, located on Alderley Street, Toowoomba and part of Queensland’s National Parks.
In 1999, the Friends initiated and worked with Toowoomba City Council to plant a very successful Millennium Forest which forms an extension to Duggan Park. The Millennium Forest was completed by the turn of the century and is now well established bushland, which is home to many species of birds and a colony of wallabies.
An extension of activities has been the development of four Parkcare Groups in association with Toowoomba City Council at Duggan Park, the Waterbird Habitat, Prince Henry Drive and Nielsen Park. Each of these groups consists of local residents who volunteer to carry out rehabilitation work in their nearby bushland parks or reserves one morning each month. This work includes weeding, planting, maintenance and other environmental tasks. This project was an initiative of the Friends to ensure that ongoing work could be carried out in these special bushland areas. FEP also provides insurance cover and support as required.
Another recent development has been a successful application by the Friends for a grant to help secure the habitat of an endangered species of native bird in Redwood Park. This work will be organised by Toowoomba City Council with further assistance from the Friends.
The group encourages and supports the use of volunteers from other community groups. It also has an ongoing involvement with clients from the Endeavour Foundation, who provide valuable assistance each week.
Volunteers are invited to join us to assist with clearing unwanted weeds from our parklands and helping to restore these areas as viable habitats for our native plants and wildlife. A membership fee of $5 for a person (or $10 per family) covers all FEP activities for the full year.
