New Gear: Techron Protection Plus Powersports & Small Engine Fuel System Treatment

Chevron Techron Protection Plus Powersports & Small Engine Fuel System Treatment
Chevron Techron Protection Plus Powersports & Small Engine Fuel System Treatment is available in 1-gallon, 10-ounce and 4-ounce bottles.

Following extensive development and testing, Techron Protection Plus Powersports & Small Engine Fuel System Treatment is said to deliver superior performance and protection combined with the advanced cleaning power of Techron in on- and off-road environments.

Engineered specifically for gasoline-powered motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, watercraft, karts, snowmobiles and scooters as well as portable outdoor power equipment used under all conditions, Chevron says Techron Powersports & Small Engine restores power and performance while optimizing fuel efficiency as it cleans fuel injectors, combustion chambers, throttle bodies and carburetors.

The additive’s performance detergents minimize cold-start problems and deposit-related knock and ping by removing carbon deposits in the combustion chamber; dissolves and prevents intake-valve deposits for smoother idling and enhanced throttle response; and cleans and controls gum and varnish build-up in the fuel system. For maximum effectiveness, Techron Powersports & Small Engine begins to clean up the fuel system and engine with the first application and then keeps it clean as the vehicle or equipment is fueled up, re-treated and operated.

Developed for superior performance in the most severe operating environments, the additive’s alcohol- and emulsifier-free formula does not contribute to water uptake. Recommended for use in all gasoline engines, including carbureted, two- and four-stroke, port or electronic fuel injected, Techron Powersports & Small Engine is ideal for ethanol-free gasoline and equipped to fight off the many harmful effects of ethanol-blended fuels, from E10 to E85. 

Techron Powersports & Small Engine stabilizes fuel up to 24 months and delivers performance benefits with every fill-up. Test data has shown that Techron Powersports & Small Engine provides best-in-class corrosion protection, making it an ideal choice for powersports enthusiasts and power equipment operators looking to get the most from their machines.

With only 1 ounce of this formula required to treat four gallons of fuel, a little protection goes a long way. Techron Powersports & Small Engine Treatment is offered in three package sizes to accommodate distributors, dealerships and enthusiasts. Easily stored 4-ounce bottles offer a convenient way to treat up to 16 gallons of fuel; 10-ounce bottles treat 40 gallons; and for the most active enthusiasts, a value-sized, 1-gallon jug treats 512 gallons of fuel.

Techron Powersports & Small Engine Fuel System Treatment is now available at AutoZone stores nationwide and on autozone.com, walmart.com and amazon.com, with additional retailers to be announced over the coming months. For the latest availability, visit techronclean.com.
