Myth Busters - HHO / Magnets / Carb
I'm watching a Myth Busters episode that is about gas saving devices... I'll try to see if it is on line.
I'll update, what results they get. I watch an episode that showed drafting too last week. It works, even at 150 feet. |
Hey thanks for the heads up on this 88CRX! I just had a drafting experience which pushed my metro in the 80 MPG range so I am now a true believer. Here is an episode related to what you are referring too, if there is a more recent one, please post it!

Don't kill anyone out there with that drafting.

Done in a dynometer at 35, 35...
Carburated / Fuel Injection: Magnets: Does not work Acetone: less efficient 300 mi carb: less efficient They missed the point with HHO... They shut the gas off and tried to run the car straight from HHO. |
Well, were they trying to bust hho as an additive or as a fuel source?

SVO, I hear ya. I stayed 1 to 2 seconds behind the rig, and was always aware of an out should an emergency arise, but I knew as long as I payed attention to the rig's speed and brake lights, I could out-stop it very easily especially at 55mph, but I was very comfortable 2 seconds behind.

They just tried the Vegetable Oil in an old Benz diesel, it worked... that we knew
But, they said that it will work in every diesel car, i'm not sure about direct injected diesels. But i believe it'll mess up something after a while. |
Uh... all diesels are direct injected.

I just like to make sure random readers don't think we're advocating what is traditionally called drafting. I'm fine following a truck, but I won't get closer than I normally would in traffic for the sake of FE, :D
