Bogus Products
From time to time, questions seem to arise about the same bogus products. Feel free to list which products you think are a scam or a fraud or unnecessary (trying to get in some search words) so that we might not have to answer so many questions about the Tornado Air.
Here's my list of products that seem (to me) of dubious benefit:
Tornado
Iridium Plugs
AEM Hydrolock Preventer
Teflon Oil Additives
What's yours...

Interesting that you would mention the Iridium plugs. They have been important in the aircraft industry for years.. now that they are available for autos I use them with good results as do others.
What do you base you 'bogus' comment on? Do you know the pros and cons of the various materials used in spark plug electrodes?
If you have some real knowledge in this area it would be nice if you would share it with us.

[I came back to edit this post because I realized I sounded a little snotty and abrupt. I was miffed by your tone. These are, of course, my opinions. Feel free to share yours.]
