If you want ON or OFF the DIESEL KnOcK LIST just FReepmail me.....
This is a fairly HIGH VOLUME ping list on some days.....
Sounds like another something for nothing scheme.
Hmmm. Seen it all already. Magnets, special things that mix more air in, things that take air out,etc. etc. Seen so much, it will take much convincing to get me to even believe this one...
Probably a heating element to thin the fuel, a surfactant might do as well.
Ummm..., some of these kinds of things are mighty suspicious. I’m not saying that this is — but it’s sorta in the same league as with others...
I wouldn't buy one just for that!
Finally, my very own flux capacitor. 1954 here I come!
This does not make much sense. Modern cars have one fuel injector per cylinder. Fuel is metered into the cylinder on the pistons downstroke, instantly vaporizing the fuel in the combustion chamber as it passes though the injector's atomizer nozzle.
Isn’t that the same device they say turns hard water into soft water?
I just moved to a house where it’s downhill coming and going so I don’t even have to start the engine.
I saw ads for something like that back in the 50s in my dads’s bathroom magazines (i.e. True, Argosy) and, as a result, view this gadget with more than a little suspicion.
Heating the fuel going into a mechanical diesel injection pump (like on older Mercedes Benz diesels) will reduce the viscosity of the fuel and very slightly reduce the power used by the injection pump (and therefore not available to the transmission to propel the vehicle). I'm not sure, but I think the laws of thermodynamics would prevent the power saved at the injection pump from exceeding the power consumed by the alternator to provide the electrical power to the heater/electromagnet.
This smells like BS.
I used to tell people that I had magnets on my fuel lines, the EN-Valve, a tornado, splitfire spark plugs, and a few other "fuel saving" devices. My fuel economy is so good, the car actually makes fuel as I drive it. I have to drain the tank periodically to prevent the fuel tank from overfilling.
What listeners don't know is that STWA was charged with stock fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In December 2001, the SEC charged the company with engaging in a fraudulent scheme to manipulate the market for STWA stock. STWA was charged with leading a fraudulent promotional campaign to disseminate false and misleading information about a product they were marketing called "Zero Emissions Fuel Saver," a "fuel molecule atomizer device" that supposedly reduces diesel and gasoline emissions by placing magnets on an engine's fuel line.
Why would they prototype and test this device on a diesel engine when gasoline engines makeup the largest share of the market?
The Do-It-Yourself-Kit comes with a re-usable tin foil hat.
Just what I always wanted. A device with high-amperage power from my car’s battery connected to the fuel system. What could possibly go wrong with that?
How many times can these charlatans roll out this “technology”? I remember being a boy in the 1960’s and reading ads in the back of car magazines that claimed the same thing from electical and/or electromagnetic field devices.
It’s all bullsquat.
