Champion Oil, a PLZ Aeroscience Company and a recognized leader in racing and specialty lubricants, now offers Champion Full-Synthetic Racing Power Steering Fluid.

Clinton, MO -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/17/2021 -- "Racing power steering fluid (PSF) is an essential part of keeping race cars at peak performance. A top tier power steering fluid like Champion's part #4370H ensures the hoses, pistons, valves, and power steering pump work optimally and not start to deteriorate," stated Karl Dedolph of Champion Oil.

"Champion Full-Synthetic Racing Power Steering Fluid reduces temperatures and delivers consistent steering response in competition applications. It has exceptional low temperature flow that reduces initial drag on the power steering pump."

"Its' robust formulation is a full-synthetic fluid that provides improved thermal stability for less pressure drop as temperatures rise. It also offers high temperature foam resistance for better cooling and improved steering precision."

"Champion's Racing PSF is a hydraulic fluid used in the steering system to create a hydraulic link between the steering wheel and the front wheels. It decreases the amount of effort required to turn the wheels".

"Champion's Racing PSF also lubricates the moving parts within the steering system. It suppresses foaming and prevents corrosion in the power steering gear and steering pump, which keeps performance vehicles in circle track, road racing, off-road, asphalt, drifting, autocross, etc. working optimally", added Dedolph.

Champion's Racing PSF meets or exceeds all specification standards that are requirements for viscosity, detergents, additives, and other components of this type of fluid. It is specifically engineered for racing applications. Components and specifications include: Decene Homopolymer Hydrotreated, Heterocyclic Ether, Alkaryl Amine, Zinc Alkydithiophosphate, Dibutylhydrogen Phosphite, Carboxylic Acid Ester, Toluene, Diphenylamine, Aryl Phosphite, and Alkylated Phenol. / Flash Point °C (°F) 225 (437)/ Pour point °C (°F) -40 (-40)/ Viscosity @ 40°C, 104°F cSt 52.5 / Viscosity @ 100°C, 211°F cSt 11.2 / Viscosity Index 23 / Color- Pale yellow to golden brown. https://www.championbrands.com/champion-full-synthetic-racing-power-steering-fluid/

"A good maintenance practice for racers is to inspect the power steering fluid occasionally, it should maintain its' color. If it's dark, that's a sign it's time to change it. If you see any dirt, debris, or sludge in the power steering fluid, it's time for the system to be flushed. If you hear some sort of noise when the wheel is turned or see some leaks, that may be another sign it's time to change the fluid."

Champion Oil, a recognized leader in specialty lubricants, suggests taking time to check your vehicle brake system this week: August 22nd thru August 28th.

Clinton, MO -- (ReleaseWire) -- 08/23/2021 -- The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance's annual Brake Safety Week is in full swing. It's when law enforcement inspectors across North America will be looking for any commercial motor vehicles found to have brake-related violations that might place them out of service. https://www.fleetowner.com/safety/article/21164730/cvsa-sets-date-focus-for-brake-safety-week .

During last fall's brake inspection blitz, more than 5,100 commercial vehicles were placed out of service because of brake-related violations. In addition, brake system and brake adjustment violations accounted for more vehicle violations than any other vehicle violation category, accounting for 38.6% of all vehicle out-of-service conditions.

What can you expect if get pulled over for inspection?

Law enforcement officers checking brake systems will look for: Loose or missing parts, air or hydraulic fluid leaks, trouble-indicator lights on the dash, including anti-lock brakes, worn linings, pads, drums, or rotors, mismatched air chamber sizes across axles, warning device functionality (such as anti-lock braking system indicator lights), proper brake adjustment, brake hoses and tubing condition, and measuring pushrod stroke to ensure brakes are properly adjusted.

"While you are at it, it's a good idea to either top up or flush your brake fluid system," suggested Karl Dedolph at Champion Oil. "Brake fluid is an important component in any hydraulic braking system. The fluid is subjected to hundreds of pounds of pressure but also needs to lubricate rubber components in the master cylinder, wheel cylinders, calipers, and hoses. In addition, brake fluid has corrosion inhibitors that keep the bores of hydraulic cylinders from rusting and pitting."

"Most of today's brake fluids are made of polyalkylene glycol, which is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture. The absorption of water prevents "pooling" of the absorbed water in the brake system, where corrosive acids can form and make the components deteriorate. Water in a brake system will also cause fluids to freeze or boil faster."

"Champion DOT 3 Brake Fluid is typically recommended for trucks prior to the mid-1990s, but DOT 3 brake fluids still makeup a large portion of service fills in newer vehicles. DOT 3 brake fluid has a dry boiling point of 490 degrees, which is fine for brake systems with large brake drums and thick disc brake rotors, where brake heat can be easily dispersed. It has a viscosity of roughly 1500cSt at -40 F. Exceeds the specifications of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard #116 and SAE J1703 for DOT 3 brake fluids."

"Champion DOT 4 Brake Fluid is recommended for most disk brake vehicles and is also a poly-glycol base. DOT 4 has a boiling point of 494 degrees F., and it is rated at a viscosity of 1800cSt at -40 F. This DOT 4 brake fluid differs from DOT 3 due to the ability to chemically scavenge water, reducing the rate at which performance deteriorates when the fluid is exposed to humidity in service. Exceeds the specifications of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard #116 and SAE J1704 for DOT 4 brake fluids," added Dedolph.

Champion Oil, a global leader in the manufacture of specialty lubricants, has recently explained its position regarding online sales, including Amazon and Ebay, with Minimum Advertised Pricing (MAP) and safety purchasing procedures.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/28/2021 -- Champion Oil Products are being sold more and more online. Due to their increased popularity you can find nearly all their products online, including Racing Oils, Tractor Fluids, Euro Oils, Classic and Muscle Oils, Diesel Oils, Modern Muscle Oils, Brake Fluids, and Transmission Fluids, etc.

If a consumer wants to purchase Champion products online, where should they go?

Let's first note Champion's business sales policy- "Champion Oil doesn't sell direct to consumers." The sales and distribution model for Champion is through its Master Warehouse Distributors (MWDs) and they in turn sell to wholesalers, jobbers, engine builders, end-users, or smaller warehouse distributors. Some MWDs have their own online stores which are listed on the Champion web site. https://www.championbrands.com/online-retailers/

It's in this mix of sellers that it might get confusing to a buyer, especially when one considers Amazon or eBay. Not all sellers are valid retailers. Who can you trust, then, for online purchasing of Champion products?

Amazon and eBay are enormous marketplaces made up of items offered by a variety of merchants, both companies and individuals. If you're buying from an individual, the person likely doesn't have the reputation that a large and established company does. You can look inside their seller profile and read their reviews. Click the seller's rating percentage next to "Seller's rating."

Browse the seller's profile. Once the seller's profile appears, you can view their star rating, feedback other buyers left, shipping rates and return policies. Before you buy you can also contact the seller with any questions you might have. The same applies to other online sales web sites.

Pricing on Amazon and eBay sometimes looks confusing. Champion provides all its MWDs with MSRP and MAP pricing. MSRP is the "manufacturer's suggested retail price." It's essentially a guidepost that lets consumers and sellers decide if this is a fair price for this product.

Also known as the list price or "sticker price," the MSRP doesn't have to be followed by sellers. If they bundle your product or provide additional services, they may charge people more. If they charge more without providing more, however, they'll be far less competitive.

An MSRP is also definitely not a minimum price. It's not legally binding. It can be considered more like a benchmark for the consumer than a restriction for the seller. The only real restriction it provides is that it contributes to consumerism: your customers know the fair value of your product, so if a seller charges more, they'd better be offering more.

MAP stands for "minimum advertised price." A MAP policy is a legal document that brands use to define the lowest possible price a product can legally be advertised for. It doesn't just set the minimum, though. MAP policies also outline penalties for the seller violating the minimum advertised price and a process to follow if a seller is found in violation.

A MAP policy is intended to protect against price erosion, and what we call "race-to-the-bottom" pricing, where every seller must decrease their price to stay competitive until they're essentially selling at-cost.

Another confusion that occurs on Amazon and eBay is that sometimes Champion products are listed in case lots or singles and the photos or descriptions don't match up exactly. Plus, not all vendors on Amazon or eBay stock Champion inventory, nor have a relationship to procure it after you pay for it.

This may all sound like Champion is not supporting Amazon, eBay, or other types of online vendors, but that's certainly not the case. There are many very good re-sellers on the web. Many of Champion's MWDs sell on Amazon and eBay and some are doing the fulfillment for their wholesale partners on these sites. As mentioned earlier, some MWDs have their own online stores outside of Amazon and eBay.

Champion supports all merchants that are selling Champion Products at MAP pricing online. Many even have free freight programs. As mentioned earlier, Champion does not sell direct to consumers. Champion does not have a store on Amazon or eBay. It's through Champion's MWDs or partners that this all takes place.

Buyers using Amazon or any other online web site can contact Champion at any time with questions. https://www.championbrands.com/contacts/

Champion Oil, a global leader in specialty lubricants, offers DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid (Part #4056) which is a glycol-based product like DOT 3 and DOT 4, but with a higher dry boiling and wet boiling point. This type of fluid is widely used in high-performance and other popular OEM applications.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/21/2021 -- Brake fluid is used in hydraulics systems in most automobiles, trucks, and motorcycles. The type of brake fluid the vehicle uses determines the efficiency and power of the brake system. The appropriate brake fluid will enhance the responsiveness of a brake system, minimize overheating, and provide sufficient lubrication.

For reference, there are different types of brake fluids for street legal operation which include DOT 3, DOT 4, DOT 5, and DOT 5.1.

DOT 5.1 brake fluid was developed due to the lack of acceptance of DOT 5, which is a silicone-based fluid. DOT 5 brake fluid is not compatible with vehicles that have Anti-Lock Braking Systems (ABS), because they are unable to absorb water and use small valves for quick activation.

Care is needed around the vehicle's bodywork with glycol-based DOT 5.1, DOT 4, and DOT 3; because they will damage the paint compared to DOT 5 Silicone Brake Fluid.

Champion DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid (Part #4056) is identical to Champion's DOT 5 Silicone Brake Fluid (Part #4055) with both boiling point and viscosity; however, it is poly-glycol based like the DOT 3 and DOT 4. Champion DOT 5.1 has a dry boiling point of 532 °F and has a wet boiling point of 360 °F which substantially exceeds the other two. This brake fluid also has a low compressibility level, which is vital in ensuring stability and consistency in the brake system.

Champion DOT 5.1 Brake fluid can be used in all brake systems, including disc, drum, ABS Anti-Skid applications, Electronic Stability Control Systems (ESCS) and Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR). Other benefits include being corrosion resistant to metal parts in the braking system, can mix it with other glycol-based brake fluids like DOT 3 and DOT 4, meets or exceeds FMVSS no. 571.116, SAE J1703, ISO 4925 (5.1, 4, ET3), and is hygroscopic. https://www.championbrands.com/champion-dot-5-1-brake-fluid/

The following automotive manufacturers have recommended DOT 5.1 in specific new models from the factory or are currently suggesting at time of fluid change to take advantage of this more robust reverse- compatible formula of brake fluid: Acura, Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ferrari, Fiat, Ford, Genesis, GMC, Honda, Hummer, Hyundai, Infinity, Jaguar, Jeep, Lamborghini, Land Rover, Lexus, Lincoln, Lotus, Maserati, Maybach, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Nissan, Porsche, Ram, Renault, Rolls-Royce, Saab, Scion, SRT, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo.

Champion DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid (Part #4056) Contains: Triethylene Glycol, Monomethyl Ether Borate Ester, Triethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether, Tetraethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether, Diethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether, Monoethanolamine, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol (BHT). Color: Clear to Amber. Viscosity of 900cSt at -40 F. 854 mm/s.

Champion Brake Fluids are all top-tier products and Champion DOT 5.1 goes a long way in defining the ultimate performance of in a high-performance brake system. It will essentially prevent brake failures and make for a terrific driving experience.

Champion Oil, a global leader in specialty lubricants has recently announced the launch of a 5 Minute Engine Flush (Part # 4133) with robust solvent characteristics that cleans valves, stubborn engine deposits, sludge, varnish, plus restores lost performance, protects, frees sticking valves and removes harmful build-ups.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/15/2021 -- It's quite possible that most gas or diesel vehicles are at risk for sludge buildup. The cause might be long oil change intervals, stop and go driving, or vehicle inactivity for months at a time.

Engine oil is meant to cycle through the engine to lubricate components to help keep them in good working order. Sometimes, however, the way a person drives can impede the oil from doing the job it's meant to do.

For example, short trips and lots of stop and go driving can cause particles in the oil to leave deposits of particles in the engine, which builds up over time, restricting the flow of oil. If these particles become excessive, clean oil is virtually useless in removing them.

An engine flush is basically the process of adding chemicals in the engine oil to break down sludge or carbon deposits from old oil.

The process is pretty simple. Remove a small amount of oil from the engine and add Champion 5-Minute Engine Flush which is designed to break up carbon, varnish and sludge deposits in the engine. Take the vehicle for a test drive or idle for 10 minutes with occasionally increasing the RPM to work the chemical throughout the engine. As the deposits are loosened, they become suspended in the oil and trapped in the filter. The vehicle is then ready for a new oil change with a new filter, thus, removing the dirt, gunk and used oil.

There are some other benefits to consider. If your vehicle has experienced a head gasket leak where coolant has seeped into the crankcase and has mixed with the oil, it is important that this is cleaned out thoroughly. A pre-owned vehicle with no maintenance records or recent internal engine repairs would benefit from a flush. And long intervals between oil changes would address oil getting dirtier over time, and the likelihood that carbons and other particles have built up in the engine.

Imagine Champion 5-Minute Engine Flush (Part #4133) giving your engine a fresh start. It's a quality engine cleaning product with high solvency designed to clean valves and stubborn engine deposits. Highly effective at removing sludge and varnish from oil system parts, restores lost performance, keeps sludge at bay, frees sticking valves, and removes harmful build-ups. 12 oz. treat rate for gas vehicles and 24 oz. for diesel applications. https://www.championbrands.com/5-minute-engine-flush/

Champion, a globally recognized industry leader in specialty products for over 65 years, recently has introduced a proprietary Super-Concentrated Fuel Injector Cleaner for fuel systems, injectors, intake valves and combustion chambers that can maximize fuel economy, improve power, performance and acceleration.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/07/2021 -- For reference: fuel systems consist of the fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel injectors or a carburetor. These systems allow for gasoline storage, filter out particles, deliver gasoline to the intake air system that mixes the air and gasoline, in the correct ratio, so that it can be efficiently burned in the engine.

Fuel injectors are electrically operated valves that inject a fine spray of fuel, in the proper amount, and into the engine's intake port. The amount of fuel sprayed into the engine varies according to the engine temperature, speed, and load, and is controlled by the vehicle's onboard computer. The combustion chamber is located between the cylinder head and the top of the piston where the fuel and air mixture is compressed by the piston and ignited by the spark plug.

One bottle of Champion's Super-Concentrated Fuel Injector Cleaner (Part #4275K, 12 oz.) treats up to 21 gallons. It's formulated to clean injectors, intake valves, carburetors, and combustion chambers, plus reduces emissions, and removes unwanted deposits that cause hesitation, loss of power, knocking & pinging. It also prevents harmful sulfur components in gasoline from attacking sensitive electronic fuel sending units.

Champion's exceptional fuel dispersant additive is carried in a blend of proprietary synthetic fluids and highly refined solvents which improve performance combustion and cleanliness to the fuel system.

Champion Fuel Injector Cleaner is fully compatible with all commercially available ethanol blends: E10, E15, E85, etc. and formulated for all gasoline engines including carbureted, two-stroke, four stroke, port fuel injected and direct injected engines. In addition, it will not harm oxygen sensors or catalytic converters. Not recommended for diesel engines.

Champion, a globally recognized industry leader in specialty products for over 65 years, recently has introduced Champion DOT 5 Silicone-Based Brake Fluid. It is a polysiloxane based fluid designed for use in non-ABS hydraulic braking applications. Developed to be used in older vehicles where moisture is going to be prevalent and unavoidable due to lack of use or storage.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/26/2021 -- Brakes run on a hydraulic system that requires fluid to make it work. When you put your foot on the brake pedal it transfers pressure through the brake fluid to the brake calipers which applies pressure to the brake pads & rotors or the brake shoes & drums. The pressure is caused by the brake fluid in this type of hydraulic system.

This process creates friction that stops the vehicle and, in some applications, may create a lot of heat. Different brake fluids react to heat in different ways which is why there are different types of DOT brake fluids available. Dot 5 has a very high boiling point and has more compressibility than most glycol ether-based fluids.

Champion DOT 5 Brake Fluid (Part #4055) is silicone-based high-temp brake fluid and is used primarily in applications like classic, antique or collector cars or trucks where the vehicle may be in storage or used occasionally. It will not blister, peel, or harm painted surfaces and acts as a weather barrier for your brake system, preventing rust.

Unlike glycol-based fluids, Champion's silicone-based brake fluid has a much more consistent viscosity profile and provides excellent lubrication of brake system components – leading to more consistent brake feel and longer component life. A Champion DOT 5-filled brake system will last longer and works well in cold temperatures.

Do not use Champion DOT 5 Brake Fluid in ABS-equipped braking systems. When DOT 5 brake fluid is used in an ABS system it will become foamy and unreliable. This is a result of the pulse high-pressure action that ABS brake systems exert on the brake fluid. The brakes will become spongy as the foaming action will produce air bubbles that greatly reduces the reliability of the brake fluid.

There are some other systems that may not work with silicone brake fluids because of their chemical composition of silicone rubber external components, like caliper piston boots, and that a DOT 5 brake fluid could actually break them down. Champion DOT 5 Brake Fluid does not mix with DOT 3, DOT 4, DOT 5.1 or racing brake fluids.

Champion DOT 5 Brake Fluid specific properties: Purple Liquid, Dry boiling point of 530 degrees, Viscosity of 900cSt at -40°F, Conforms to FMVSS 116 (DOT 5) and MIL-PRF-46176B, Contains -Polydimethylsiloxane, Tributylphosphate, and Dioctyl-Sebacate.

Champion, a globally recognized industry leader in specialty products for over 65 years, recently has introduced a premium quality, full-synthetic transmission fluid specifically designed for use in vehicles with belt-driven continuously variable transmissions (CVT). It has been specifically engineered to have the unique frictional properties required for use in this type of transmission.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/20/2021 -- There are three different types of transmissions: manual, automatic and continuously variable transmissions. CVT is sometimes referred to as the shiftless transmission and can provide a smoother driving experience when comparing it to a traditional automatic transmission.

One of the significant advantages to having a CVT is that they are often more fuel-efficient than a regular automatic. This is part of the reason that they are becoming a more popular choice for automakers in many vehicles.

A manual has a set number of gears, and the driver determines what gear ratio they need. An automatic also has a set number of gears, but it uses a hydraulic system that responds to pressure created by the conditions to determine the gear needed. A CVT is similar to an automatic in that it doesn't use any input from the driver, but that is where the similarities end. A CVT doesn't have any gears. Instead, it has two pulleys. One pulley connects to the engine, and the other connects to the wheels. A flexible belt connects the two pulleys.

The width of the pulleys changes depending on how much power the vehicle needs. When one pulley gets larger, the other one gets smaller. Since neither the pulleys nor the belt is fixed, they can provide an infinite number of gear ratios, unlike the automatic, which has a set number of gears.

Not all CVTs are created the same. The most common type is the pulley-based, but some other types include the Toroidal CVT, which uses rotating discs along with power rollers to produce the same result as the pulleys. The hydrostatic CVT uses pumps to control fluid flow, which then produces a rotational motion.

One of the advantages of a CVT is that it smoothly allows the transmission to continuously change its gear ratio. This means that no matter what the engine speed it, it is always performing at its peak efficiency. CVTs often offer better fuel economy as a result, especially when driving in the city.

CVTs offer a smoother ride than a similar car with a regular automatic. This is because the transmission never shifts. There is no abrupt downshifting when the car needs additional power, and there is no feeling of gear hunting that you sometimes feel with a traditional automatic.

Because of the lack of gearing, it is easier for CVT vehicles to find and maintain an ideal torque ratio as well. It has an easier time taking off from a stoplight and an easier time climbing difficult terrain because the variable transmission allows it to run in the right "gear" and stay there.

While the lack of upshifting and downshifting is considered an advantage of the CVT, some drivers miss the sensation of the vehicle moving through the shift points. If you prefer a sportier driving experience, then the lack of fixed gears makes the ride less engaging.

Toyota and Lexus recently made some changes to its CVT. They now uses what they call a "Launch Gear" to provide drivers with the feeling of a conventional transmission. The launch gear is almost like the first gear in a regular automatic transmission. As the vehicle speeds up, the transmission will switch this out, so it starts working as a CVT and feel more like a regular transmission; it will also increase belt efficiency and improve performance.

Champion Full-Synthetic Multi-Vehicle CVT Fluid (Part #4354) provides metal-to-metal frictional properties between the CVT's belt/chain interface and the pulleys to prevent slipping and helps extend transmission life. It has a strong thermally stable formulation which guards against the harmful effects of thermal breakdown. It resists the formation of varnish that can threaten transmission performance and life. And provides outstanding wet-clutch performance, anti-shudder durability, reduced noise, vibration and harshness. https://www.championbrands.com/full-synthetic-cvt-multi-vehicle-fluid/

Champion, a globally recognized industry leader in specialty products for over 65 years, recently has launched Champion eGuard, a new more robust ethanol fuel treatment that is a multi-functional gasoline additive formulated for use in gasoline and ethanol blended fuel treatments from E-10 to E-85. It contains advanced corrosion protection additives to protect against ethanol and water in fuel systems. Part# 4207M

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/18/2021 -- A few years ago, there was a fear that ethanol would damage fuel system parts in cars and trucks because of its gradual attack on rubber and polymer parts. But this is proven not to be the case in modern vehicles. Most vehicles made after 1980, have fuel system components that are resistant to this effect. They do just fine on E10 and E15 or E85 flex fuel.

However, because Champion eGuard Ethanol Fuel Treatment is a multi-functional product, it also provides detergency for injectors and combustion chambers. It's still a good idea to use a fuel additive with added detergency, especially considering that injector deposits are the single biggest cause of a decrease in fuel mileage.

Older vehicles made over 40 years ago have fuel system parts that are not ethanol resistant. If you have to run standard E10 or E15 in your classic car or truck it is a good idea to treat that fuel with Champion's eGuard Ethanol Fuel Treatment to help protect the fuel system from ethanol damage.

Small engines are also at risk. Not all manufacturers have made changes to their engines' fuel systems with updated components that resist ethanol damage. Lawn movers, weed whackers, chain saws and other small equipment can also benefit from Champion's eGuard. Ethanol attacks their fuel lines and eats through them over time and will cause corrosive damage in small engine carburetors.

Gas generators also need protection. Their issue is that the fuel in them may sit for longer periods of time and affect the fuel's combustion quality. Champion eGuard Ethanol Fuel Treatment will help gas generators by improving the ethanol fuel's ability to resist phase separation, the number one cause of ethanol fuel decomposition in storage. This is a great benefit for gas generators by keeping the engine clean and helping them run at peak performance when an emergency happens.

Champion's treat rate is 1 oz. per 10 gallons of gasoline. Cannot over-treat fuel. Suitable for 2 and 4-cycle engines that use gasoline, gasoline/oil, and ethanol blends.

Champion eGuard Ethanol Fuel Treatment (Part #4207) specific properties: Petroleum Odor, Amber Color, Flash Point – 33.9°C / 93°F, Clear Red Liquid, Viscosity 23.6mm/ @ 40°C / 105°F, Solvent Naphtha, Isopropyl Alcohol, Diethanolamine, 1,2,4- Trimethylbenzene, Xylene. https://www.championbrands.com/ethanol-fuel-treatment/

For over six decades Champion Brands, a globally recognized blender and packager of motor oils, gear lubes, brake fluids, and many other specialty lubricants, is currently marketing GlobalTrans™ ATF, a professional-grade full-synthetic multi-vehicle (MV) automatic transmission fluid specifically designed to lubricates internal moving parts, but also provide hydraulic pressure, friction and cooling to make transmissions work more efficiently.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/12/2021 -- Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) meets the requirements of O.E.M. automatic transmissions and helps with various functions, including: gear lubrication, torque converter operation, valve body operation, clutch friction operation, brake band friction, and transmission cooling.

Generally, ATF is made of a thin consistency and is clear with a red hue, although some automatic transmission fluids are now blue/green, purple or even amber, depending on the manufacturer. This makes it easy to differentiate it from motor oil and the other fluids running through your vehicle and also to spot a leak.

Over time, ATF will break down and become contaminated with particles and debris. If your ATF level is low or the fluid has started to break down, you'll notice a decrease in performance and possibly overheating. Transmission overheating is typically a result of a leak causing low fluid, or contaminated fluid due to lack of regular fluid maintenance.

These issues might cause the transmission to slip, and while it won't typically cause the vehicle to stall, it will cause the engine to rev higher than normal or feel as though you have no power. When your fluid levels are low, this can result in permanent damage to your vehicle's transmission and lead to costly repairs, rebuilds or even replacements.

Champion GlobalTrans™ Full Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF Fluid is proven in field tests to prevent early operational lubricant breakdown and have consistent top-tier performance in many world-wide and different types of O.E.M. automatic transmissions.

Champion's GlobalTrans™ MV ATF delivers superior performance in low-temperature flow, wear protection, frictional stability and resistance to thermal breakdown and is made with 100% synthetic base fluid chosen for superior resistance to oxidation and viscosity change. It maintains a highly shear stable cold flow viscosity for superior resistance to problematic viscosity change over thousands of miles or hundreds of hours.

Champion's synergistic wear and seal protection chemistry is preferred by original equipment manufacturers (O.E.M.) and found in premium factory first-fill fluids. It is optimized with a friction-control additive that not only prevent slip and shudder, but provides smooth operational shifting supporting it is more durable than many other competing brands.

GlobalTrans™, part #4357, is compatible with contemporary transmission seal-materials and other automatic transmission fluids. It is specifically designed to lubricate all the internal moving parts, and also provide hydraulic pressure, friction and cooling to make the transmission work more efficiently. Follow OEM recommendations regarding extended drain intervals.

Champion WP2 Racing 2-Cycle Motor Oil is the ultimate choice for amateur and professional motorcycle, ATV, go-cart, UTV, and snowmobile racers. Formulated as a premium synthetic blend premix with excellent film strength, anti-friction additives, clean burning characteristics, and protects coated and non-coated pistons for use in 2-Cycle competition engines.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/10/2021 -- Champion WP2 is a high-performance and purpose-built for two-stroke engines operate under severe conditions. The oil is modified for higher compression ratios, higher rpm and leaner combustion, all of which increase heat and pressure. High heat can quickly burn off light oils and cause rapid piston expansion, decreasing piston-to-cylinder wall clearances and increasing the likelihood of piston scuffing and seizure. High pressure can exceed the film strength of low-viscosity oils, which promotes crankshaft bearing wear and pitting.

Champion WP2 provides outstanding film strength and lubricity. It is engineered with carefully selected, higher-viscosity synthetic base stocks to withstand the high heat and pressure common to high-performance and racing applications. Its anti-friction chemistry is race-proven to provide an extra measure of protection against piston scuffing and bearing wear.

Other brands of 2-Cycle oil often burn the fuel and oil during the combustion process leaving destructive deposits on the pistons, rings and in the combustion chamber. Excessive deposits can lead to catastrophic engine problems, including ring sticking, exhaust port blocking and pre-ignition.

Champion's WP2 is formulated with a clean-burning semi-synthetic oil and powerful high-temperature detergent additives for exceptional deposit control. It helps prevent harmful carbon deposits that cause horsepower loss, ring sticking, exhaust port blocking and pre-ignition.

This specially formulated oil meets lubrication and high temperature demands, limits deposits throughout the engine, and delivers clean throttle response. These premium additives provide excellent detergency and dispersant for protection and OEM operational requirements.

Champion's WP2 yields increased performance, clean throttle response, and exceeds JASO-FD and ISO-L-EDG lubrication standards. Part numbers include: # 4090K/12 for a 12 pack of 12.8oz bottles, # 4090N/4 for four Gallon jugs, and #4090AC for one 55 Gallon drum. https://www.championbrands.com/synthetic-wp2-2-cycle-racing/

Champion Oil, with the help of testing from top-tier engine builders around the country, now offers three different motor oils specially designed to reduce the potential of engine failure during hard break-in. These purpose-built “mineral based” lubricants are offered in SAE 30, 10w-40, and 20w-50 viscosities.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/04/2021 -- Champion's PowerShield Break-in oils are specifically formulated to seal the piston rings against the cylinder wall for maximum engine compression and power. Break-in-oils typically use conventional base stock without friction-modifier additives to allow controlled wear between the rings and cylinder wall. They also contain a high level of zinc and phosphorus additives to protect the camshaft and other components during break in.

Break-in oil is different from regular motor oil because it is designed to allow the rings to wear down the peaks on the cylinder wall to form a good seal. Regular motor oil, in contrast, is designed to prevent wear.

Sealing the piston rings when breaking in an engine requires allowing the rings and piston skirt to carefully wear down the peaks on the cylinder wall. Although a new or freshly honed cylinder appears smooth to the naked eye, it contains microscopic peaks and valleys. If the valleys are too deep, they collect excess oil, which burns during combustion and leads to oil consumption.

The sharp peaks provide insufficient area to allow the rings to seat tightly. That means highly pressurized combustion gases can blow past the rings and into the crankcase, contaminating the oil and taking potential horsepower with it. The result is maximum compression and minimum oil consumption.

Champion's Break-in-oil also hardens the flat-tappet cam. Flat-tappet cams can wear out faster than their roller-cam, especially in engines modified with high-tension valve springs. Worn lobes or tappets affect valve lift and duration, which reduces engine power and efficiency.

Plus, Champion's PowerShield Break-In-Oil helps harden the camshaft so it's more resilient to wear. The solution is to use a properly formulated break-in oil that contains conventional base oils and high-quality ZDDP additives. These additives are heat-activated, meaning they provide wear protection in areas of increased friction. The additives form a sacrificial layer on the surface of parts, which absorbs contact and helps prevent cam and tappet wear. https://www.championbrands.com/power-shield-engine-products/

Compared to synthetic oils, conventional base oils result in a thinner, less durable protective oil film on engine parts. The thinner fluid film allows controlled wear at the cylinder wall/ring interface.

New cars and trucks don't need break-in-oil. Some OE manufacturer might still require you to drive under light-to-moderate load for a few hundred miles, then change oil. But racers, competitors or gearheads using a rebuilt or new crate engine, should use a designated break-in-oil. Follow the engine builder's directions or the instructions that came with the crate engine.

A simple guideline for a flat-tappet cam; run the engine above 2,500 rpm for 15 minutes. As for seating the rings, testing has shown it can take seven dyno passes or more. That time varies depending on the engine, ring tension, cylinder hone, temperature, and other factors. The dyno provides the best method of determining exactly when the rings are seated. Your screen data will show a boost in horsepower as the rings seat.

Another guideline for Champion PowerShield Break-In-Oil might be to run the engine under light-to-moderate loads for about 500 miles. Then, drain the break-in-oil, install of your oil of choice and commence driving.

Champion's robust formulations contain a proprietary technology contains unique high levels of zincthiophosphates (ZDDP), in combination with Champion's proprietary TVS® (Thermal Viscosity Stabilizer), which extends oil film capacity for proper ring seating.

These top selling break-in-oils are also formulated with polymers and viscosity modifiers. During break-in and heat cycles, as the oil heats up, the friction modifier thickens and allows the oil to behave more like a heavier viscosity oil at operating temperature.

Dispersants and other additives are put in the break-in motor oils to help keep the engine clean. Any wear particles generated by the piston rings, cylinder walls and other moving/sliding parts as the engine breaks in will be suspended and carried away by the oil to the oil filter.

Professional engine-builders that use Champion PowerShield Break-In-Oil will experience the difference provided by numerous barriers of protection. These new products are field tested and suitable for use in all high performance and racing type engines especially those using flat tappet and/or roller cams operating at high RPMs and requiring high-pressure (stiff) valve springs. https://www.championbrands.com/power-shield-engine-products/

Champion Oil, a globally recognized leader in the development and manufacturing of lubricants and specialty products, announced this week the next generation of CHAMPION 4000® PREMIUM TRACTOR HYDRAULIC FLUID that offers friction control, wear protection, thermal stability, shear stability, rust and corrosion protection.

Clinton, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/26/2021 -- Tractor Fluid has unique properties and applications. Hydraulic Oil is different and is used as a lubricant to transfer power. Tractor Fluid is a lubricant designed as a transmission fluid that can lubricate the moving parts within the transmission.

Tractor fluids will improve the productivity of the farm tractors by protecting the tractor parts. These fluids are used with tractor transmissions, tractor hydraulic systems, Power-Take-Offs (PTOs) that convert the mechanical power of the engine to other equipment, hydraulic bearings, final drives that transfer power from the drive shaft to wheels, wet brake used in tractors and earth-moving equipment, etc.

Tractor fluids provide efficient braking, seal compatibility, oxidation stability, thermal resistance, protection against dust and corrosion, and anti-foam characteristics. Also, smoother operation and a long-life span of tractors can be achieved using these fluids.

The organic nitrogen present in most of the hydraulic oil will damage the seals and results in leakage. This issue can be eliminated by using automatic transmission fluids (ATF). ATFs are compatible with most of the components and materials and will reduce oxidation and corrosion.

Tractor fluids are types of an ATF designed for performing multiple tasks on farm tractors and off-road machines. Friction performance, anti-wear protection, hydraulic pump protection, water tolerance, seal protection, shear stability and low-temperature performance are the features of these fluids.

The friction performance for clutches and wet brakes will reduce the noise. Tractor fluids will also provide wear and friction control. Plus, they offer powerful dispersion and detergency. Tractor fluids are created by adding viscosity index improvers, pour point depressants and other additives.

CHAMPION 4000® PREMIUM TRACTOR HYDRAULIC FLUID offers friction control, wear protection, thermal stability, shear stability, rust and corrosion protection, and deep cold pumpability all optimally balanced to provide extended clutch life, maximum draw-bar loading in a wide range of ambient temperatures.
