zMAX™ is not an oil additive! Unlike many popular oil additives, which contain chlorinated paraffins, Teflon®, moly, tcp or other solids or chemicals, zMAX™ is a pure micro-lubricating oil that treats the metal.
Smaller zMAX™ molecules soak into the pores of the metal where they clean out carbon, varnish and other deposits that make your engine run hotter. zMAX™ dissolves carbon and tunes your combustion chamber. You get improved gas mileage, reduced emissions, and more power.
Why is zMAX™ unique? It's a trade secret. But we can tell you that it works in ways regular oils can't because it has smaller micro-lubricating molecules. For example, if regular oil molecules were the size of basketballs, then the molecules of zMAX™ would be the size of golf balls. They can get into the places regular oils simply can't reach. In fact, zMAX™ literally soaks into metal™
zMAX™ is a unique metal saturating Micro-lubricant™ refined from
the purest petroleum in the world. zMAX™ has a scientifically modified
molecular structure which allows it to soak into the metal™.
In stories related to Bruton Smith, Chairman of Speedway Motorsports Inc., Lencki told of the involvement of Enrico Fermi in discussions on how to make the product work better. Fermi, noted physicist, was also in Chicago during the WW2 Manhattan Project at the same time Lencki was superintendent of the Chicago Dodge plant that made B29 engines. The original purpose of Lencki's Speedway Cocktail was to improve cold start lubrication and remove cam shaft and lifter scuffing. The product solved the problem, but subsequent testing revealed many other benefits.
Lencki's final trade secret reformation process was developed in 1947.
The reformed, smaller molecules would actually soak into metal. The product
showed a molecular affinity between it and all metals which assures penetration
and durability. zMAX™ also dissolves carbon and varnish. The benefits were
enormous - increased horsepower, decreased fuel consumption, lower operating
temperatures, less wear, improved compression and it drastically reduced
corrosion and rusting.
