Looking like something out of the movie "Star Wars," BG Oil met at AREA 51 on December 1st to demonstrate their "Nitrofill" machine. This machine exchanges the air in passenger car and truck tires for nitrogen. Why change to nitrogen? Compressed air contains a great deal of moisture. Most new cars today come with tire pressure sensors and they have found that the moisture contaminates these sensors and causes them to fail. Nitrogen contains no moisture and is also less affected by temperature and conditions that cause tire pressures to go up or down. Nitrogen has been run in race car tires for many years for these very same reasons, especially for the consistency in pressure.
It's always great to spend time with the gang from BG and find out what's new in the world of lubricants and additives. We've run BG products exclusively for years with great success and look forward to the 2009 season....with nitrogen in our tires!
Even "Bob's Big Boy" looked interested...
