{Open on a vehicle grill with the Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ logo and gunk icon as the badge}

{We zoom out to see the grill is on a red truck driving along a desert landscape}

{Car disappears to reveal the inside of the vehicle until we see the engine}

{A V-6 PFI engine is shown running. Include valves actuating, fuel injection, combustion}

{SFX of engine throughout}

{Move to cutaway of engine - close-up showing the air path, valves, spark plug}

{Fuel is introduced via the injector into the air path and begins hitting the back of the valve}

{Gunk is another name for carbon deposits}

[Animated sequence]

{Close-up of fuel-air mixture impacting the back of the intake valves}

{Show engine working - Fuel/air mix enters the combustion chamber (view from inside)}

{As piston compresses the mixture, the spark plug fires and combustion occurs (view from inside)}

[Text displays]



{Gunk can build up on intake valves and fuel injectors}

{Corrosion is caused by moisture and other contaminants}



[Animated sequence]

{Fuel is introduced into the vehicle, flowing into the gas tank, you can see the particles within the fuel}

[Text displays]



{That can make their way into your vehicle’s fuel tank}



[Animated sequence]

{Zoom in on fuel making its way into and through the fuel pump inside the tank}

[Text displays]



{And accumulate in your vehicle’s fuel system}



[Animated sequence]

{Fuel then flows through the filter, particles accumulate and cake up the filter}
