Maybe the diesel engine was stared cold, and as it came up to operating temperature it's efficiency improved? Each diesel test took between 77 seconds and 105 seconds. Which seems like a rather short run to get the reported precision.
This:
"The diesel consumption decreases till 4000 gauss and deteriorates beyond 4000 gauss... This could be due to other effects coming in picture post 4000 gauss field viz. viscous heating on the fuel on account of very high magentic filed strength." Is pure BS.

I agree that their "real world" testing is so loose that you can't rely on it.
I was intrigued by the viscosity test though.
I don't know if that really relates to decreased fuel consumption, but it indicates that magnets can have some sort of affect on fuel.
