Man are you tempted to get jipped into buying bull**** products?


Not to be an *** but go buy a camry if fuel savings is your concern.

Actually, they work. My wife's dad sells them and gave us a free bottle. Since I'm an engineer he thought he'd give it to someone who would already think it wouldn't work. I use them on my 92 camry for traveling for work. My father in law uses them on all the family vehicles and saves a ton of money. Results are much better on older vehicles and are not worth the cost on anything newer than 10 or so years old. Disney just signed a contract with the company to use them in their whole fleet. You have to remember, they are only worth it if gas is over like $2.60 a gallon. Oh, you're wondering how much better the gas mileage was on the Camry? I went from about 28 miles per gallon highway to around 32 miles per gallon.

No, and I wouldn't. Like I said its not worth it unless your car is at least 10 years old. I also wouldn't due to warranty reasons alone. While they claim (and have "tested") it to not leave or do anything to/in your engine. The only true way to know that is not to add anything. Kind of like abstinence...can't get pregnant unless you have sex.

Uh if these are those bio pills they are being sued in texas by the AG for total scam. Its a pyramid scam, the pills have the same chemical contents as mothballs and do not do anything at all.

Buy more mods if you're stressed about MPG. I've gained about 1mpg with my mods driving like a granny gained me another 2. I'm around 20 mpg average.. but it's hard to maintain that.

I'll have to look into this. I'm pretty skeptical about stuff like this. I've driven my car for years. I've always gotten no more than 420 miles to the tank all highway. After two gas tanks worth of using the pills I made it 480 miles all highway.
