Revolutionary Product, SPARE TANK ^™, Takes the Fear Out of "Running Out of Gas" Forever

First-Ever Non-Flammable Emergency Solution

SPARE TANK™, the world's first and only patented non-flammable gasoline derivative, is now available. Developed in Baltimore, the product is specifically designed and formulated for emergency use in a vehicle which accidentally runs out of conventional gasoline.

"Just as the spare tire has become an essential piece of equipment for all automobiles sold worldwide, we expect that SPARE TANK will quickly become standard equipment in everyone's car trunk. SPARE TANK fulfills a long-standing need for motorists and gives them the most cost effective insurance policy against running out of gas," said Richard W. Jones, CEO of Emergency Fuel, LLC, dba Emergency Solutions.

SPARE TANK is legal and safe to store in the trunk of any vehicle and meets Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations for all 50 states. SPARE TANK is a unique blend of environmentally safe, bio-degradable, organic and synthetic compounds with a National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) and DOT rating of "Combustible" as opposed to conventional gasoline which retains the significantly more hazardous NFPA and DOT rating of "Flammable".

The product was developed in 1994 by William A. Hubbard. The company's official product name, SPARE TANK was trademarked in 1996, and in 1997 the company received U.S. Patent 5,681,358. In 1998, Mark B. Gordon, O.D., one of the original investors, purchased the exclusive worldwide marketing rights and organized Emergency Solutions, whose sole purpose is to bring SPARE TANK to the market.

"We believe that SPARE TANK is the hottest product to hit the automotive aftermarket industry since "Slick 50" and "The Club." The national launch of SPARE TANK will provide people of all ages with the 'solution for empty,' stated Jones.

SPARE TANK also has wide reaching preventative and safety implications. According to a U.S. Department of Transportation Vehicle Disablement Study Technical Report, the number two leading cause of vehicular breakdown is running out of gas. In California alone, approximately 100 people per year are killed as a result of vehicle disablement, whether they remain in the vehicle or walk to get assistance. Many more people are injured and there is extensive property damage that results from collisions with stalled or disabled vehicles.

"It is obvious that running out of gas is a wide-spread problem that can have serious and dangerous consequences. SPARE TANK will help reduce preventable vehicular breakdowns and the dangers associated with them," stated Emergency Solutions chairman Gordon.

The MSRP for one U.S. gallon container of SPARE TANK for automotive use is $24.99 and for one quart is $9.99. SPARE TANK provides essentially the same miles-per-gallon that an automobile achieves normally with a gallon of gasoline. The product is also expected to be available in a large size for marine use by the fall of this year.
