Anyone using magnets to increase milage?

Might save gas when you hit all those green lights

Not so much... stop light sensors aren't magnetic. Ask bikers.

All stop lights are not the same. Some have sensing loops and some are controlled by algorhythm.

MN passed a law allowing cyclists to "run a red" if they come to a complete stop and there is no cross traffic, because they finally figured out that bikes don't trip the sensing loop. I'm glad they passed that law cuz I'd been running those reds anyway. Heck if I'm gonna sit there in the middle of nowhere waiting for a light that's never gonna change.

I ride cycle too and I couldve sworn some (not all) can be triggered with magnets

And yeah, I run those reds all the time too.

Gasoline is paramagnetic.It is not a dipole molecule as water.Gasoline cannot be affected by a magnetic field.I believe your fuel savings stem from some other driving dynamic.
