HOUSTON, Texas – Just in time for peak vacation season, Pennzoil has launched a new Fuel Rewards Network (FRN) program to help motorists go farther and save more at the pump. Through the new program, with each five-quart purchase or oil change with Pennzoil Ultra or Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic Motor Oil, motorists can save 50 cents per gallon on Shell fuel. This promotional offer runs at retail location now through Oct. 31, and Sept. 1 through Oct. 31 at participating oil change locations.
 
Fuel economy is always important to consumers, but most are not aware that if enough deposits form in the engine, there could be a loss of 3 to 6 percent of your fuel economy, Pennzoil says. The latest formulations of Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic Motor Oil are created with active cleansing agents created to keep engines clean throughout their lifespan. This, according to Pennzoil, enables motorists to drive an extra 550 miles per year on average versus a dirty engine.
 
Both Pennzoil Ultra and Pennzoil Platinum also clean out existing engine sludge that may have been left behind from inferior motor oils, a key to maximizing fuel economy, according to the company. If an engine becomes dirty, it could reach a point where the systems put in place to keep the engine running efficiently are either compromised or shut down completely, robbing drivers of precious miles spent with their vehicles.
 
“We at Pennzoil understand how important it is to save a few dollars when fueling up your vehicle,” said Bree Sandlin, Pennzoil global brand manager. “Clean engines get more miles and our synthetic motor oils are designed to do just that by helping consumers maintain the best fuel economy possible for their vehicle while utilizing our superior cleaning technology.”
