AFS Completes First Shipment To DaimlerChrsyler Licensee IDEM

CALGARY, Oct. 18 /CNW/ - Alternative Fuel Systems Inc. (CDNX: ATF)
('AFS') announced today that the Company has shipped the initial batch of
Sparrow IM Fuel Management Systems to DaimlerChrysler licensee, IDEM. The
shipment left AFS' loading docks on schedule and within budget. This first
shipment will result in $800,000 in sales revenue for the Sparrow Systems and
associated services. Part of a multiyear agreement with IDEM, this is the
first of several AFS Sparrow IM System shipments scheduled as part of a $6.5
Million purchase and service agreement between the two companies.
The Sparrow IM Systems will be factory-installed on Mercedes diesel
engines manufactured by IDEM. The AFS Sparrow IM System includes a spark
ignition system that was specially developed by AFS for this project in
addition to customized Sparrow software and hardware. The Sparrow IM will
enable the new Mercedes diesel engines to operate using 100% natural gas to
reduce emissions and take advantage of Iran's substantial domestic natural gas
supplies. Early onroad and laboratory test results from the initial Sparrow
IM Systems installations in Tehran have been excellent and AFS has received
great customer feedback.
AFS also reiterated a key point from its October 11, 2000 press release
regarding the development of a dual fuel management system to operate the
Cummins ISC diesel engine using natural gas. AFS was commissioned by a
customer to undertake this dual fuel engineering project. AFS did not, in any
way, imply that there was a commercial relationship between AFS and Cummins
Inc.
Alternative Fuel Systems Inc. is an environmental technology company
providing innovative solutions to the global engine exhaust emissions problem.
AFS has developed and commercialized electronic engine management technologies
that enable diesel and gasoline engines to operate using natural gas, and is
at the forefront of research into exhaust aftertreatment technology. AFS is
headquartered in Calgary, Canada and trades on the CDNX as ATF.
The Canadian Venture Exchange Inc. has neither approved nor disapproved
of the contents of this news release.
