If they could work on a device that would reduce depreciation by 20% a year that would be a winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 23/05/05 12:56 AM Share Posted 23/05/05 12:56 AM Everyone must rush to get one of these to go with their tornado fuel saver. With these two combined you will go 1000km on a tank! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>and the condensator, ioniser, polariser hey soon brocky will endorse it!!!!

Turbofalke Member 658 Member For: 20y 2m 17d Location: Mexico Posted 23/05/05 02:49 AM Share Posted 23/05/05 02:49 AM Seriously I cant see how this can work - wouldnt the on board computer adjust itself cancelling any fuel saving effect? Must admit though - nice and simple in designScoot<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I think your right on the money. It's a sound idea but without calibration of the injector system, the two should be inconflict.Increasing the combustion efficiency of an engine increases the exhaust oxygen percentage. The computer will add extra fuel to the engine to maintain set combustion ratios, when the oxegen sensor in the exhaust reads the mixture as being lean - it'll just push more in.And if you could manage to resolve this, the variation in fuel quality available on the market would throw the system out every time you filled up. If its such a good idea (and cheap) then why would manufacturers be using it already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 23/05/05 10:30 AM Share Posted 23/05/05 10:30 AM One of the major things about fuel injected cars is they pump excess fuel and return it to the tank so it does not get to hot so why would we want to heat it up again.Sounds suss to me.Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a break.Load of absolute crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But go for your life mate. Lots of people apply your philosophy to recreational drugs and that appears to work Edited 23/05/05 11:03 PM by Turbofalke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
