Gasoline Additives 
 

During the refining stage, Canadian Tire Petroleum product is refined to comply with all government regulations. The additive package in our product is a multifunctional gasoline additive. The package is called Tolad T 3306. The features of this additive are:

  • Cleans fouled port injectors
  • Maintains carburetor and fuel injector cleanliness
  • Corrosion inhibitor in gasoline containing oxygenates
  • Provides corrosion protection in aqueous layers formed below gasoline

The benefits of the package are that it “provides detergency to keep fuel metering systems clean resulting in improved performance and fuel economy,” and that it “inhibits corrosion, thereby reducing contamination and filter plugging caused by corrosion products.”

  • Additional cleaning additives can be purchased from your Canadian Tire Petroleum gas bar or store and can be directly added to your gas tank.
  • The specification of our fuel is automatically changed depending on the time of year. There is not a single day during the year when the switchover takes place. There is a phase-in process from winter spec to summer spec and visa versa, which takes place over a period of several weeks to several months. The specification relates to the cloud point, the pour point, the volatility and the viscosity of the gasoline that is changed.
