What engine oil or fuel additives should I use and why?

Herguth - Frequently Asked Questions
Modern engine oils and fuels are carefully formulated to offer the best possible performance over a wide range of operating condition. There are occasions where an additive not contained in the oil or fuel will improve performance in one respect or another. However, there are also additives that will cause harm to the system. If aftermarket additives are used they should be thoroughly tested and offer more proof of performance than simple testimonial letters or anecdotal evidence. See similar questions...

Is propane really a convenient fuel?

What other additives do we add to the oil?

Oils of Aloha: Kukui and Macadamia Nut Oils
None. We don’t use other additives like BHA, BHT ,TBHQ, etc. The oil is a pure product expeller pressed from the kukui nut. Oils of Aloha Kukui Nut Oil is expeller pressed. We use no solvents of any kind in the production of the oil. Kukui nuts are fed into a screw press and the oil is literally squeezed out. This process generates a minimum of heat and that helps to protect the oil. After expelling the oil goes through a filter press to remove particulate matter. See similar questions...

How does a fuel cell work?

Hydrogen Now! Frequently Asked Questions
A fuel cell is fed hydrogen and air and puts out electricity, heat, and water. The hydrogen gas going in gets split into separate protons and electrons by a catalyst, and the protons travel through a membrane that doesn't let the electrons through. The electrons must find another way, such as through a wire that is provided. The electrons traveling through the wire to meet up with the protons make an electrical current, which does work.
