Their hypothesis does seem to make sense. Gas gets pretty crappy if you just let it sit... So if they can boost it back up to a like-new state, it would therefore burn more efficiently...




If i ever have 200 bucks burning a hole in my pocket, im gonna go for it.


it cant hurt.

The way I think about it is, Why would a big mag like that write a lie about a product.
Other then advertising...

It works, I've used in lawn mowers, motorcycles,mini-excavator, my last truck (05 Chevy Colorado Z71), snowmobiles. It's basically a mini refinery that makes the fuel easier to burn.
It helps greatly with emissions. It's a good performance up grade too, helps with faster acceleration, and keeps the rest of the fuel system clean. Fitch is good for 250k miles.

It is a bit expensive, but it's something that is inline with your fuel and lasts a long time, not like a dump in your tank liquid that you have to re buy each time.

glowing review by someone with one post.

spam?

If these things have been around since 1994, why is it that no auto manufacturers have picked them up to reduce their emissions and increase fuel economy, especially in these times of increasing EPA regs?

I smell snake oil and splitfire plugs.

Doh, got sucked into a thread revival.

At least I wasn't the one dredging up the old thread.

(all the more reason to consider that one post a spam )
