Proven fuel system cleaners and engine performance restoration treatments delivering measurable emissions reductions, fuel savings, and extended component life across rail and fleet operations.
Diesel engine efficiency depends on three critical factors working in concert. When any one is compromised — through carbon deposits, fouled injectors or worn ring seats — power output declines and emissions rise. Standard scheduled maintenance cannot remove these deposits.
The Worldwide Fuel Charter — signed by all major engine manufacturers — confirms that injector fouling reduces fuel flow, increases noise, smoke, and emissions.
01
Airflow
Good air-flow through clean intake and combustion systems is essential for complete, efficient combustion.
02
Fuel Atomisation
Injectors fire up to 50 times per second. Deposits on pintles degrade the spray pattern with every single cycle.
03
Compression
Good compression from clean, freely-moving piston rings. Carbon in ring grooves destroys sealing integrity.

The Solution
TWO PRODUCTS. ONE COMPLETE FIX.
BG's two core products address both emission sources simultaneously, restoring the three pillars of diesel efficiency without strip-down or downtime.
BG Premium 245
Diesel Fuel System Cleaner
Dissolves deposits from injector pintles, restoring correct spray atomisation. Cleaner combustion produces fewer unburned hydrocarbons and lower NOx. Added directly to the fuel tank during normal operation — no strip-down required.
BG EPR
Engine Performance Restoration
Removes carbon and soot deposits from piston ring seats, restoring compression and sealing integrity. Directly targets the root cause of excessive combustion temperatures that drive elevated NOx and particulate output.
