Hi, found this on ebay, called demonmag, which some how uses magnets to purify the fuel, but Im a little optomistic. Im not bothered about better fuel economy, just interested If it would actually make the car more efficients.

Heres the link

I'd be interested to see if there are any independent tests of this device.
Sounds fishy to me.

I think you'd be better off my buying better fuel for your car.

So why don't car manufacturers stick this onto their cars so they can publish better economy figures in their booklets?? Simple, it doesnt work. What a load of old tosh.

Anyone heard of trying small amounts of pure acetone? Read a little bit about it a while big supposedly giving big gains in economy. Probably another load of BS though....

Thought so, too good to be true and all that. If it was that good we'd all be using it already.......

I have heard that if you pour a bag of sugar into your tank it will save you a fortune in petrol

Is this true?
