    Hi folks did anybody out there get and fit the fuelsaver device as in the link below: -

    http://magicfuelsaver.com/


    Seems very good to be true and maybe its the cynic in me but after all my years on the go something tells me if it seems too good to be true it is too good to be true. Anyone who has gotten one? Best thing since sliced bread or about as much use as an inflatable dart board?

    Super Power Magnetic Fuel Saver - just has to be good :D And that it comes from China just adds credibility.

    can anyone explain in lay mans term without the sales mans pre recording, what it consists of, i have looked at the link and all it told me was how my fuel bill was 2200 p/a and this would save me 600 p/a ,

    is it some kind of slow down filter that slows down the amount of fuel entering the carb, or injector,

    or what the hell is it

    Just think, if saving fuel was this easy, surely some of the car manufacturers (who spend millions on research) would be using this already.

    Thats what I was thinking to myself too. A device costing less than 12 euro delivered to your door and that can be fitted in a few minutes with no need for a mechanic saving you up to 25% off your annual fuel bill?...Its bound to be too good to be true I suppose.

    100 % total and utter rubbish, if it could do what they say for 12 euro, do you not think companies likeFord Motor Company, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, BMW, Mercedes etc would fit this revolutionary technology to all their cars and have it as a retro fit to all the cars they have built ?

    Sometimes of it's too good to be true, it probably is.

    Lisa: By your logic I could claim that this rock keeps tigers away.
    Homer: Oh, how does it work?
    Lisa: It doesn't work.
    Homer: Uh-huh.
    Lisa: It's just a stupid rock.
    Homer: Uh-huh.
    Lisa: But I don't see any tigers around, do you?
    [Homer thinks of this, then pulls out some money]
    Homer: Lisa, I want to buy your rock.

    Well I'll be the first to admit I do make my fair share of slip ups but I don't think I'm a complete fool either. After all the the negative comments above I think it would be kinda silly to speculate the 12 euro. What I'd like to know now is how are these cowboys getting away with it. Should the advertising authorities or SIMI or some crowd like that not be closing them down?

    dont go there runtothe hills will burst in with some twin towers and petrol companies genetically engineering our food to enslave us to lizards type story.

    There magnets and its a con that has been around for a long time.

    Other common cons are
    • Hydrogen generators
    • Acetone
    • Fuel magnets
    • resistor kits
    • Tin foil vortex generators
    • resistor kits that melt your ecu
    • Echotec valves (expensive air leak)
    All a load of balls

    LOL - SIMI protect consumers lol
