AFTC Alternative Fuel Technologies Inc (PK)

Alternative Fuel Technologies (PINKSHEETS: AFTC) is pleased to announce that Phase II submission proposals are still advancing and awaiting the technical review process by the US Army.

It has come to our attention at the Company, that information in our July 21st news release may have been misinterpreted, due to the language used in the release itself. Alternative Fuel Technologies would like to clarify that point in the recent announcement wherein the company states, "AFTC test results show that the pump suffered high wear in a short period of time because of the fuel characteristics." This choice of language left many believing that the US Government was testing the wear and tear of JP-8 jet fuel in high pressure fuel injector pumps manufactured by the Company. This is not the case. A company spokesperson states, "This is a misinterpretation of the language used in the release itself, the engines that we are testing for the Army to determine and help solve the wear and tear issues are commercial engines built by manufacturers other than Alternative Fuel Technologies." The spokesperson goes on to state, "In the news release where it says '[O]ur test results show that the pump suffered high wear in a short period of time because of the fuel characteristics,' we were describing the effect of JP-8 on the commercial fuel pumps which the army had us test and has now invited us to make a proposal for curing their current issues."

The Army has been very pleased with Alternative Fuel Technologies' work on this project and is currently analyzing the Company's proposals to solve the "wear & tear" issues of the engines made by these commercial manufacturers.

On July 19 AFTC submitted a detailed proposal to resolve the wear problem using technology developed for the DME fuel injection system and awaits response. If awarded this proposal, the AFTC could be awarded up to $730,000 in funding for Phase II.
