SAE Based Test Protocol Confirms That Ethos FR Reduces Emissions and Increases Fuel Efficiency

Market Wire, October, 2008

Ethos Environmental, Inc., a San Diego-based
company that manufactures fuel reformulators (the “Company”) (OTCBB: ETEV),
is pleased to announce that an SAE J1321 Type II fuel consumption test of
Ethos FR performed by FERIC, a private, non-profit research and development
organization and a division of FP Innovations, has verified that Ethos FR
increases fuel efficiency and significantly reduces emissions.

When compared to a control vehicle following the rigorous testing protocol,
the results concluded that Ethos FR successfully improved fuel efficiency
and reduced harmful diesel emissions, as measured in opacity. In fact, the
Ethos FR treated engine reduced emissions by 29.1% when compared to the
baseline test.

The test results verify that the Ethos FR treated engine reduced fuel
consumption, though the length and duration of the test did not provide the
Ethos FR product sufficient mileage to achieve maximum results. In actual
field results conducted by freight carriers, fuel efficiency improved by 7%
to 19%, on average, as documented by fleet drivers. These actual field
test periods have included a more typical mix of travel for heavy duty
trucks, including longer runs, partial and/or lighter roads, and a higher
amount of engine idling time — all conditions where friction reduction has
a direct relation to reducing fuel consumption.

As part of their Energotest 2008, a project which conducts controlled
test-track studies of products for achieving higher fuel efficiency and
lowering emissions in the transportation industry, FERIC tested Ethos FR.
The testing protocol was based on the SAE J1321 Joint TMC/SAE Fuel
Consumption Test Procedure – Type II. The vehicles used in the test were
identical
low-mileage 2006 Freightliner tractors, with Mercedes Benz 4000 engines.
The tests were performed on a high speed test track, and the length of the
test run was approximately 60 miles.

About Ethos FR

Ethos FR is a non-toxic, non-hazardous fuel reformulator that works in any
internal combustion engine. Ethos FR contains two families of esters, a
group of cleaning esters and a group of lubricating esters in a mineral oil
base. It cleans and lubricates the internal parts of the engine without the
use of petroleum-derived products commonly found in fuel additives. The
main objective is to make fuels self-cleaning and self-lubricating without
increasing toxic emissions
