Have you ever seen the term PPM and wondered what it means? Did you wonder in what way do PPM's affect the treat ratio of the additive I want to use?
PPM is an abbreviation for parts per million. In fuel additives, they represent the specific, extremely minuscule amount of a chemical component (or components) present in an additive solution. The correct amount of chemistry is necessary to achieve the desired result. Too little and the results will be lackluster or undetectable. Too much and the extra chemistry becomes an unnecessary expense. Simple right?
Well, yes, but there is a little
math involved.
