I went to the web site and wonder how they can claim this: Improved Cetane & Lubricity in Diesel Fuel.

Tell you what. Send me half the purchase price. I'll send you something that will do the same thing.

Oh and I'll even give you a lifetime warranty on it.



If it breaks, you get to keep both halves!

I have one on a bench I'd sell ya! I ran it on my Durmax for a while then put it on my Jetta for a while, and now it's on my bench. I did see around a 1mpg gain on my Duramax. I honestly never really checked the Jetta. For the cost it takes a lot of miles to pay for itself. I don't know why I bought it. I didn't care that much about mileage or anything. Patracy's deal sounds pretty good too!

Snake oil? Not sure about that. Catalist do exist, and I would imagine that somebody has verified that is breaks and combines carbon chains, but who knows?

Indeed, when the Fitch Fuel Catalyst was tested in February 2008 by the Australian motoring organisation, the NRMA, essentially no benefit in either emissions or fuel consumption was found on the two petrol (gasoline) vehicles tested. Supporters of this technology claim that the tests were flawed in some way - either due to incorrect installation, or insufficient "conditioning period" between installing the device and performing the test. While this cannot be disproved, the negative results still represent a significant challenge to the makers of such devices.

The Turbo Diesel Register magazine tested this product and did show a gain. Don't remember how much but it was in the ballpark of 1mpg.

I get magazines to and the more I read them the more I think they are a 1/4 full of 6.7it. They play to their advertisers and will never say anything bad about them imo.

Underlined the key word in your statement. Notice the word "magazine". They get their money from advertisements, stands to reason they'd find an improvement. Don't want to badmouth your source of income...

EPA doesn't endorse the product either.
