And while planning testing, you might want to read this: Fuel saving gadgets - a professional engineer's view
I've read about the magnets and also doubt their ability to help FE. I know ABA testing is the most accrurate, but being disabled and on a limited income I can't afford to do unneccesary driving, so I think over the span of several thousand miles I should be able to tell if there's any significant change in FE and my day to day driving is near the same day in and day out. Even up to a MPG over several thousand miles could easily be contributed to driving variation. The last time I had a significant change was when I changed my timing belt and for some reason I lost fuel mileage. I've checked and rechecked the timing marks and the ignition timing and everything is dead on, but I lost several MPG.
