Automotive: 

  Starting your engine has long been known to be the worst thing you can do to your engine.  Major brand oil companies have quoted this for years.  The facts are simple; oil drains back into the oil pan, oil is needed to lubricate the moving engine parts, cold oil takes longer to travel through the engine to protect these moving parts, and finally unprotected metal to metal contact wears engine components.  This “wear” results in fine metal particles, these particles circulate through your engine; this is known as contamination.  This contamination further accelerates the wear of your engine.  You get the idea.   

  Now, what about pressure?  Oil pressure is what separates the moving metal components of your engine while the engine is in operation; this includes cranking.   No oil can do this without the assistance of a… …pump.  The engines oil pump forces oil through the engine and the resulting interference creates pressure.  This pressure separates the moving components and creates a lubricant film for these components to travel upon.  Without the engines oil pump in full operation there is no pressure.  [NoteThis is an over simplified explanation of the engines oil system operation.]  Experts have claimed that one startup on a cold engine (a.k.a. Dry Start) is equivalent to 500 miles of travel, in regards to engine wear.  Dry starts occur after routine oil changes and when your vehicle sits for as little as 1 day without use.  How many times have you started your engine this week, month, and year? 

  The Pre/Post Lubrication system, offered through ESP Products, considers all these conditions and characteristics.  “Dry Start” is now a thing of the past.  With an ESP-Luber lubrication system from ESP Products you can circulate engine oil through the engine block and vital engine components to all but eliminate engine wear.  You will not only circulate the engine oil, but creates up to 35 PSI of oil pressure.  This is like a Pre-Start for your engine.  This is the best Engine Start Protection you can have.

How does it work?

  Simple.  Turn your key to the "on" position.  A 12v ignition signal to our ECM starts the Pre- cycle.  When the key is turned to the "off" position the 12 volt signal is removed from the ECM and the Post- cycle begins.  It's that simple to operate.  Note: A design upgrade in 2009 made our, ESP-Luber exclusive, ECM fully digital and adjustable by the user.  You can now adjust your Pre-cycle and your Post- cycle independently to best suit your engine application and driving needs.

  If you purchased one of our manual systems then the Pre- and Post- cycles are controlled by the manual switch.  We have recently introduced a momentary switch to the Manual systems to eliminate accidental operation.  The benefit to this change is the system only operates while you engage the switch.  You are in control.

Who needs to pre-lubricate their engine?

  Everyone serious about the life, performance, and longevity of their engine and vehicle should have an ESP-Luber Pre/Post Lubrication System on their engine.   

  This should be of particular interest to owners of Muscle Cars, Street Rods, and Classics; owners that have a genuine interest in the preservation of their automobiles.   

[Note: When an engine is in the rebuilding process, pay close attention to your bearing wear.  This will show evidence of dry starts, oil starvation, or a weak oil system.  Consult with you engine builder regarding these conditions and the benefits of our Pre/Post Lubrication System.] 

  Consider the cost of an engine rebuild.  Consider the time and the enjoyment lost on the operation of that vehicle.  Consider reducing the metal contaminates in your oil by 90%.  Can you afford not to have a Pre/Post Lubrication System?
