HEUI injectors use oil pressure to raise fuel pressure inside the injector. A High Pressure Oil Pump (HPOP) feeds oil from the crankcase to the injector where a 'Spool valve' ('poppet valve' for 7.3l) opens allowing hydraulic pressure to raise fuel pressure and fire the injector. Engine oil is exposed to very high temperatures and pressures in the Spool valve and degrades, forming deposits. These deposits cause excessive wear. Deposits and wear create static friction inside the injector, or 'Stiction', which can prevent the injector from firing.
A blend of esters combined with our additive package remove and disperse deposits while AR9100 forms a friction reducing solid boundary lubricating film on the bore of the 'spool valve'. By removing deposits and reducing friction, AR9100 eliminates stiction issues and ensures they do not return.
