Microlon for Aircraft
Experience for yourself what others are already taking advantage of.
Bonanza A-36
• Exhaust valve guide failed on #4 Cyl.• Oil pressure and Quantity went to Zero• Engine continued under power for “5 – 7 minutes” to airport• Inspectors from Manufacturer, FAA and A&P found no heat or friction damage due to operation with no oil• Savings : Aircraft & Occupants (Failure occurred at night over mountains)• Savings : $12,000 to $15,000 in engine repairs

MICROLON TREATED RENAULT R5 DRIVEN 816 KmsWITH NO OIL IN THE ENGINE
The R5 Renault engine was inspected and sealed with wax by Government officials prior to departure on the 817 km trip, after all the oil was drained from the crankcase. After the trip the engine was disassembled in an Army Lab. in front of some of the participants. With the exception of one main bearing that showed some very minimal damage, (the bearing was reinstalled after inspection) there was no damage to the engine! This engine does not have hydraulic lifters.
Cessna 172“Prior to Microlon treatment our Cessna 172 oil consumption was one liter every 10.5hrs. Since the Microlon treatment the consumption has stabilized at 15.4hrs to a liter.
Fuel consumption went from 6.5 gals. per hr. to 5.7 gals per hr.
A very impressive improvement in engine efficiency and well worth the cost of the treatment. Oil analysis showed metal wear reduced by 50%.”

“The oil consumption went from one quart every 4.5hrs to one quart every 7.5hrs.
Fuel consumption changed from 5.7 gallons per hour before Microlon to 5.2 gallons per hour after the application.
We operate five pipeline patrollers and all five engines were sticking valves.
We operate at low altitudes and are most pleased with what appears to be an end to valve sticking.”

Beech Bonanza V 35“During the past year I was made aware of an aviation engine treatment called ‘Microlon.’ While attending the EAA convetion last summer at Oshkosh, Wisconsin I discussed the product with several aircraft owners and pilots. Everyone who had used Microlon endorsed it enthusiastically.
My results are as follows:
Before After
Oil Consumption 3.5hrs per qt. 8-9hrs per qt. 128%-157% Decrease
Fuel Consumption 15 GPH 13 GPH 13% Decrease
In addition to the above the engine is quieter and the airplane seems to climb better. I have no hesitation in strongly recommending and endorsing Microlon to any aircraft owner.”
William L. Heldreth
Luscombe 8F“I warmed up my engine and added the recommended amounts of Microlon to my oil and gas, then went for a 2.5 hr. flight. About one hour into the flight the engine started to run smoother and quieter. The cylinder head temperature dropped about 10°F, oil temperature 5°F and oil pressure increased about 5 P.S.I. (altitude was constant)”
David Schaff
Mustang II“I competed in this aircraft in the LBF-500 race and won the Two place division of the adjusted speed category with an average speed of 196 MPH.
The Microlon increased my top speed by 12 MPH, climb RPM by 50, max RPM by 100, and reduced my takeoff run from 1400 feet to 900 feet! Also, during the race I averaged almost 30 MPG, at 1200 feet altitude with a 1500 lb. aircraft! I did much better in the race than anticipated and I believe the reason to be the use of Microlon in my engine. I really am amazed with the product.”

In Fact!Better than New OilUsed oil is better than crude for making new oil, and it goes through the same refining process. NextGen is part used oil that's made to exceed industry specs and match Valvoline protection. And because it saves resources, it's better than new oil.

• Valvoline® claims that their NextGen® is better than new oil.
Added benefits for Aircraft
• Pre-heat engine oil before cranks.• Pre-lubricate engine before cranks.• Extended major overhauls.
