- Cleaner combustion
- Smoke reduction
- NOx improvement
- Fuel injector performance
- Pass/fail validation
Measured Improvement
In one trial, a Freightliner with a Detroit 60 engine improved from an opacity emissions reading of 45.9 to 1.2.

Diesel Fuel Emissions Analysis
A diesel fuel emissions analysis test was performed on December 6, 2010 using a Toyota Diesel 180Z Land Cruiser with 1 hour of operation time.
CO Reduction
Reduced by 24%, from 207 to 158 PPM.
NO Reduction
Reduced by 10%, from 305 to 274 PPM.
NO2 Reduction
Reduced by 33%, from 77 to 52 PPM.
NOx Reduction
Reduced by 15%, from 382 to 326 PPM.
Injector Performance Case Example
The Problem
A 2004 Duramax Diesel Pickup experienced fluttering and injector concerns. Injector pulse readings were outside acceptable range, and injector replacement was recommended.
The Result
After using Forté Premium ULS Diesel Booster and driving approximately 50 to 60 km, the vehicle was re-tested and injector readings returned within acceptable specification.
Cleaner Combustion. Measured Results.
Forté emission testing supports real-world diesel performance, reduced opacity, and improved operating reliability.

Injector Performance Case Example
A real-world example involving a 2004 Duramax Diesel Pickup and Forté Premium ULS Diesel Booster.
The Problem
In November 2011, the Alberta Transportation Manager for Berry and Smith Trucking Ltd. began experiencing fluttering in his 2004 Duramax Diesel Pickup.
Injector pulse readings should normally be within +4 to -4. Injector #3 showed +5.6 and injector #8 showed +4.2.
Replacement of injectors #3 and #8 was recommended.
The Result
After using Forté Premium ULS Diesel Booster, the vehicle was driven approximately 50 to 60 km.
The truck showed less fluttering and noticeably reduced smoke.
Injector #8 improved to -0.8 and injector #3 improved to -2.7, avoiding injector replacement and repair labour.
Before Treatment
After Treatment
“My use of Forté directly saved me replacing an injector and about a half hour of shop labour for the repair of my truck.”
“I have to thank Forté for their product which, unlike others out there, really does make a difference.”
Alberta Transportation Manager, Berry and Smith Trucking Ltd.
