aren't those for diesel applications only????

I saw that this weekend on the "Trucks" show. they put the catalyst on a dodge cummins and are supposed to report back this weekend if it worked to increage fuel economy or not. the stock dodge cummins mega cab with a 5.9L turbo diesel got 20.5 (i think) miles per gallon stock.... but with 35" mud tires/aftermarket rims... pretty good in stock form....

I hope you can send it back for a full refund.

I have the highest skepticism over this thing.
(As for their FAQs comment as to why mfrs don't use it -bullhooey. If something that simple were proven to truly improve efficiency, it would be adopted quickly. Right now, the market is looking for fuel efficiency, but in the prior 10 yrs, CAFE numbers mandated by govt were an expensive/difficult thing to maintain, requiring use of lighter mat'ls and expensive developments like VVT, all while fighting the natural market pressures of "the devil may care" about fuel efficiency and the market's desire for large vehicles.)

However, if you insist on installing it -I assume that the two fuel lines you're speaking of are the fuel tank pump to injector line (which is where I assume the Fitch freaks intend this to go) and the fuel return line back to the tank, which is not where I'd assume it would go.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Lightbulb Instalation Tricks Someone

Thank for ideas. Would apriciate help on fiting. That compagnie is industrialy known for their products, the product consist of an assembly of special metal (magnetic) and it simply re-acctivated fuel particles, chemistry secret, and yes their is all kind of products out their, but i thrust fitch, why,?? prouve me the opposite. Fitch is not sold for fuel économies but for a fuel optimyser and at the end their is fuel économies. A catalyst for liquides, diesel gasoline, brut oil ,natural gas. d'ont be shy tell me your thoughts.

What is there to "optimize" in gasoline???? Especially since it goes thru the fuel injectors anyway! Did not know that gasoline was magnetic. Should've sold that idea to Exxon, they could have used a couple of super-magnets to clean the Valdez oil spill.

Do not forget to add Tornado to your air intake. Together with optimized fuel it is good for at least +30 HP and will use 10 MPG less.

"Industrial" means nothing.
I wish I had a looney for every product that someone has tried to sell to us.
People buy for industry, just like for personal use. People in "industry" can be just as gullible as people at home. Many who sell the stuff want to believe it, and do -so they're not all thieves, just duped like their customers.

There have been tons of magnetic systems that are supposed to "align the bipolar molecules" and catalyst that are supposed to do all sorts of things. As they note, a catalyst promotes a reaction, and is not generally consumed like a reactant (which they confuse with the term "additive"). However, a catalyst is used to promote the reaction -at the time of the reaction (not just to put the molecules in a good mood for later). What reaction are they promoting w/ this catalyst? (especially since, for small engines, they recommend dropping these things into the fuel tank)

I think the most catalysm from this is in promoting the dispersal of cash.
$140 better spent on fuel, while driving carefully.
