I saw an advertisement on one of the pages here, and wondered if anybody has tried it. I'm guessing it doesn't work any better than any other additive, ie. they don't!

I've never tried it. I don't know anyone that has either.

Never tried any fuel additives. Even if one of these does somehow give better mileage, it will probably cost more than what you would save on gas.

Any claim for a fuel additive that SIGNIFICANTLY increases fuel economy is almost certainly going to be false. The only questions is whether they person making the claim is a con man (liar) or actually believes their claim (a fool).

Beware of any product or device that claims to give better fuel economy. Check them out first. Here is one good source.

I believe that for whatever gain you get, it doesn't make up for the additional cost of the product.
