A-B-A, of which your search picks up quite a few I thought maybe Neil had something new. Maybe not.

Picking through the first page of results at random, nobody seems to show a measurable effect on FE, certainly not the "riches and world peace" claimed by the makers. The MIRA test linked in one of the posts seems to show about 2.8% improvement on a truck.

Heretic...

EDIT - The MIRA test appears on the Airtabs website too. But from memory I haven't seen any ParcelFarce trucks with tabs on that I can remember. Going to track one down and photo it.
