I have seen this in the back of almost every car magazine that I peruse at the news stand.
Is this just some guy taking advantage of mechanically challenged idiots (like me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) ) or does this actually have some basis in technical fact? Doug |

Mythbusters did a show about various gas saving devices, magnets on the fuel line and all that. Every device that they tested did no good or made mpg worse, except for putting filtered cooking oil in an old Mercedes. The Mercedes actually ran with no other mods than gravity feeding the cooking oil right to the fuel pump. They didn't try putting it into the fuel tank.
