Don't think he needs to... ::)

Use less fuel and boost horsepower?
To boost horsepower the first thing you do is increase air and fuel intake.

It's a jouk. (sorry, joke). ;D

Jouk

There was an article on top gear or something like that a couple of months ago and it was said that all them gadgets are pooh,

If they were that good the oil companies and car mfrs would be fitting them as standard.

I can remember the magnatheripy bracelet companies trying to con pensioners into thinking they were a cure for everything, even down to putting one on your water supply at home , then there was one for your car an even more expensive one if you wanted to save more fuel , they even sell them for your pets.

You buy one and i guarantee you will be chucking your money away

Anyone ever thought about producing their own biodiesel?, I currently make my own and it is possible to produce it for aprox 30p a litre.

This would bring down your costs for milage.

Cheers
Dave.

I'm sorry when you say it is hard to convert over, what do you mean?.  I simpy pour my biodiesel into my tank the only modifcation that I run is an additioanl inline fuel filter.

Sorry if I have misunderstood the last post.

 i thought you had to add a lot more devices to your engine for biodeisel, so are you saying you treat the vegetable oil only, and just use a biodeisel filter, that sounds good,

WHAT? this is the first  i have ever seen of this, we find a way to save fuel, and they have law on it,

Running a Diesel car off vegtable oil is perfectly legal but you MUST pay the tax on the fuel. The forms you need for this are available from Customs and Excise and are forms EX103, EX103A and EX103B.

make your own biodiesel
