Running a mixed-use fleet comes with a unique set of fuel decisions. A single operation may rely on diesel trucks for long hauls, gasoline-powered pickups for daily service calls, off-road equipment for job sites, and standby generators for emergency power. Each engine type has unique fuel and maintenance requirements, and the right fueling strategy can […]

Engines work hard when they’re under stress, but they also get much hotter. Whether you’re pushing RPMs on the racetrack or pulling a heavy trailer on the highway, managing that extra heat is critical. Overheating can quickly turn a strong performance into an expensive repair. The right coolant is your first line of defense, but

When discussing fuel, words like octane and cetane are often tossed around. Both of these words refer to a measurement of certain aspects of fuel quality, but they’re not interchangeable, and they don’t apply to the same type of engine. Octane ratings belong to gasoline. Cetane ratings belong to diesel. Understanding the difference is more

In racing, every detail matters. Engine performance, durability, and consistency on the track can hinge on something as simple as the oil you choose. For racers and engine builders, one of the most common questions is whether to use break-in oil or go straight to full synthetic oil. Both have a role, but they serve

Antifreeze is a temperature-regulating coolant used in engines, HVAC systems, industrial equipment, and other mechanical systems exposed to extreme heat or cold. When mixed with water, it lowers the freezing point and raises the boiling point of the solution, helping systems operate efficiently in extreme temperatures. Antifreeze also interferes with ice crystal formation and improves

For commercial operators, clean and reliable fuel is essential. Farmers, fleet managers, and industrial companies all depend on equipment that runs smoothly and that requires a consistent supply of fuel. However, stored fuel can become contaminated, causing clogged filters, damaged injectors, and costly downtime. That’s where fuel polishing and tank cleaning come in. These services

In Northern Indiana and Southwest Michigan, we’re no strangers to dramatic seasonal swings. From bitter snowy winters to sweltering summer heat, these shifts affect everything from what we wear to how our fuel runs. These temperature shifts can also impact the performance and reliability of your lubricants. Understanding how temperature affects oil and grease is

In competitive motorsports, every detail matters, down to the last drop of fuel. While engines, suspension setups, and aerodynamics tend to get the spotlight, the type and quality of fuel used can be just as critical to winning margins. From dirt track racing to Formula 1, understanding how fuel impacts performance gives teams a measurable

Fuel additives have become a hot topic in the commercial and industrial fueling world. From farm equipment to heavy-duty fleets, more operators are asking: Are they worth it? Or are they just another “miracle solution” that overpromises and underdelivers? Let’s break down what fuel additives are and how they work. What are fuel additives? Fuel

If you work in motorsports or service high-performance vehicles, chances are you’ve heard of racing oil. But what exactly is it, and how is it different from the motor oil used in everyday cars? Whether you’re in the racing industry or you’re just a car enthusiast, understanding racing oil and its composition can help you
