It may surprise many of you to know that we at
Call Sign have been following the progress of Power Pill
for exactly one year now. Back in August 2005, Power Pill approached
us with a product that they not only claimed would save us money on
fuel and get rid of the nasty black smoke pouring out of our taxis,
but also offered to prove it free of charge…and now the proof has
come showing that it actually does what it claims! Not content with
giving DaC drivers a chance to test the product for nowt (and with
some amazing results), they have now set about demonstrating how
much cleaner our cab engines will stay by using their product. Power Pill set out to find a well-respected, long established specialist to conduct some major engine examinations and after much research throughout the industry, chose MAG Diesels in South London. Arthur Bolt, a veteran of almost fifty years in the trade, runs MAG and along with son Gary and the rest of his team, has taken apart more engines than you or I have had hot dinners! Stripping down DaC driver’s engines! The protocol involved stripping down a typical diesel engine that had never used Power Pill in order to photograph and document the state our taxis get themselves into just by doing their everyday job. Then three Dial-a-Cab drivers were picked at random from the hundreds who are now using Power Pill, to have their vehicle engines stripped down to see what difference, if any, Power Pill had made. Dealing with the non-Power Pill engine first, as you can see from the picture of the inlet manifold, the amount of carbon build up left behind by the fuel is staggering. Gary Bolt explained to Call Sign... "In every engine we work on, heavy carbon deposits like these are found within the combustion chamber and fuel system. The result is poor start up, excessive smoke, poor gas flow, reduced power and decreased miles per gallon. All of these significantly shorten the lifespan of the engine." The first DaC driver to have his cab engine examined was Ken Jackman (B29) whose Metrocab Series I has completed over 290,000 miles. Like all the drivers involved, Ken has been using |
After one year of testing with hundreds of Call Sign readers, at last… DAC DRIVERS PROVE THAT POWER PILL WORKS!
