load of rubbish, it is like the arthiritis bracelets , pants.

Best way to save fuel is to go on a diet as you wont have to transport excess fat about,.

you will spend less on food so there is a double whammy.
 smaller size clothes weigh less so even better

In a previous life my job was (partly) to look after the companies vehicles - we had eight in all and a guy came trying to sell these to us. About £100 fitted per vehicle I believe.

I said if they're that good let me have one on free trial and if it works I'll buy another seven.

He wasn't keen ....  ::)

Have your tyres inflated with nitrogen. Tyres stay inflated at the correct tyre pressures for at least 6-9 months. No need to keep checking tyre pressures.

haha, i have actually done that before! though this was when i was being a little lean on buying fuel and was trying to make it to the petrol station before running out, i made it. Though its best to just coast and burn for me and keep in neutral allot, especially when the P steering and brakes stop working when the engines off.

very dangerous, to do this, as the power steering will lock on you,

fit a smaller fuel tank, only a muppet would not have realised how much this would save every time you fill up.

Drill a hole in someone else's petrol tank and collect it into jerry cans. It's becoming the new trend around here as well as draining bundie tanks that customers store their fuel in. It's becoming big profitable business for criminals.
