Fuel Saver

[nzspacio]

Hi all, i was wondering if any one has used a magnetic fuel saver device that clips onto the fuel line they are selling here in NZ for $20 >80 i found an interesting web site about using magnets to save fuel

http://www.tinet.org/~sje/mag_fuel.htm

just wonder if these things actually work? i'd be interested to know.

I'm sure it works as well as rogain.

I have tried 2 of these on my last car. There was no noticeable difference.

Aparently it is scientifically impossible to ionise fuel using magnets, so the whole thing is complete crap. But I am no Bioligist.

Also, Mythbusters tested it and busted it. :P

Cheers,

i've tried the magnetic one.. as cjrasmu said its total crap and i hv to agree, it was like 15 dollars so i thought i will give it a shot and nothing to lose if it doesnt work :) and it made no diff to the engine whatsoever..

so now im giving this other one which supposingly have radioactive material in them and stuff like that (i dunno :S) and so far i dont see any difference..

if i were u :) keep the 15 - 20 dollar u gna spend and buy urself a good meal :) prob more worthwhile.. i didnt regret getting them thou :P @ least i know that other ppl wont make the same mistake

OMG! someones really that stupid!? <_<

really if anyone interested I have a fridge magnet that we don't want, $5? anyone??

SERIOUSLY! if they do work, why don't TOYOTA, HONDA, MERCEDES, LEXUS, AUDI, BMW, HOLDEN, HYUNDAI and so on... sell them? <_<

Sell them? You would think it would already be built into the car!

Why spend money trying to make more fuel efficient engines when you can just chuck in a few $15 magnets. :P

Well thanks for your input those that have tried them good to hear one way or the other more snake oil on the market so to speak, I had a similar experience with motor up no difference what so ever $39.99 down the drain so to speak that was when i had the MPV.
