EnviroTabs - I pop a pill and...
I have no idea what this is but can I put it into the pasture ?

How Does It Work?
EnviroTabs® is an organometallic metal conditioner that acts as a burn rate modifier which catalyzes fuel. This action allows more of the fuel to burn in the power stroke of the engine and therefore less fuel burns in the exhaust stroke.
EnviroTabs® simultaneously improves fuel economy, increases power and reduces emissions by creating a micro-thin coating in the combustion chamber of your engine which allows fuel to burn quicker.
EnviroTabs® burns off carbon deposits and catalytically causes a chemical reaction to happen at a lower temperature. The fuel particles begin to combust at temperatures as low as 200º C, as opposed to 600° C. This chemical reaction allows the impurities and the hard carbon deposits to completely burn off.
EnviroTabs® changes the surface heat absorption characteristics of metal. Note: The greatest loss in efficiency in an automobile engine is the loss of heat. Heat is energy released by the mixture of fuel and air; which produces a heat spike, which creates expansion used to power the vehicle. The cylinder walls and head are water cooled, and the pistons are oil cooled. The thin coating inhibits the transfer of radiant heat. This means higher combustion temperature, greater expansion and more power with reduced emissions. By increasing the burn in the combustion chamber (rather than as after-burn) performance can be increased while reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Heat recovery is the single best method that can reduce harmful emissions, increase fuel economy, improve engine performance and extend oil and engine life.
Does it work with all types of fuels?
Yes - EnviroTabs® works at the chemical level of the combustion process and therefore works exactly the same way regardless of the type of fuel in which it is used. EnviroTabs® are formulated for use with all types of gas and diesel fuel grades, which includes E-85, two-cycle mixed fuels, and blends of diesel (winter, summer and bio). EnviroTabs® works in any combustion engine-car, truck, motorcycle, generator- you name it!
Just put EnviroTabs® in your fuel tank before filling up. The tablet will completely dissolve in minutes, often times before you are done filling-up. Once dissolved it passes through the fuel line and past the fuel filter using the fuel as a carrier. EnviroTabs® does not modify or alter the fuel in any way.

Now I may be reading too little into this but I'm thinking 'bollocks'*

Start of ignition @ 200°C sounds like premature detonation to me.

...are they related to Magnetic Hare Pellets?

And, gosh golly gee whiz, they have an SRI report that says that fuel with their pellets in it is exactly the same as fuel without their pellets in it. Sounds like they are selling GENUINE 100% placebo.
But, to be fair, genuine 100% placebo has been proven effective in the past.

so i can now buy a tablet to change the metallurgical charecteristics of my engine block? SWEET!!!

Complete BS "The fuel particles begin to combust at temperatures as low as 200º C, as opposed to 600° C"
I do not know where they got those numbers but autoignition temp of Gasoline is ~280º C unless they are trying to claim that it will lower the burn point of carbon monoxide from 609º C to the range of gas
If the needed burn temp is dropped significantly it in creases the chance of knock caused by autoignition (the way diesel works) this will lead to reduced ignition timing, increase in cylinder pressure that could blow out gaskets.

I'm pretty sure the only burn that is going to happen is to the person who got "burned" by purchasing their magic pill.

The only pill that ever helped my F.E. was Ritalin, it lets me concentrate a lot harder on my tach and shift points lol

No, I reckon it's cold fusion.
