Does anyone have any experience with this product?? It supposedly can be used in gasoline and diesel fuel. It is supposed to break up the long carbon chains in fuel into shorter chains that burn better. They claim lower emmissions and up to 16 % increase in fuel economy. With the price of fuel continueing to climb if this was a product that actually worked it may be worth trying.

Yes the price of fuel is out of hand again and its early in the year yet!!!

Im getting tired of paying for it, Especially my diesel @ 4.30 a gallon.

Ill just keep rolling along in my Tacoma for a bit. My cummins gets @ the same fuel milage as it does but50 cents more per gallon at an already super inflated price means it stays in my shop most of the time.

The good weather is here so I believe my wife and I will be pulling ou the Mustang as it is our gas mileage car st this point. 23-28 mpg
depending who is driving.

Don't waste your money on stuff like this - it's total and complete B.S.

Breaking long carbon chains into smaller ones is what's done at the refinery and the process requires tremendous heat, pressure and exotic catalyst materials. It's how crude oil is turned into useful fuels. If this could be done by simply using some sort of magic potion why would the greedy oil companies pay for all of that expensive, dangerous equipment and the the people to run it.

The funny thing about the sales pitch for snake oil like this is that the shorter the carbon chain the less energy available (BTU per gallon or liter.) Bunker fuel used by ships (longer carbon chains) has more energy per gallon / liter than diesel fuel (shorter carbon chain) which, in turn, has more energy per gallon / liter than gasoline (still shorter carbon chain.) So if the stuff really did break the long carbon chains into smaller ones you'd get lower mileage.

Don't fall into the trap of wishful thinking. There's no magic solution.

Wow! You saved me from buying the 100mpg carburetor. You know the oil company bought the company out to protect themselves.
ROTFLMAO!

Most of that aftermarket stuff, additive, fuel stretcher, 200 mile per gallon with just one treatment, cleans the windows while you drive, is just pure snake oil.
