Devices Tested by EPA

The following list categorizes various types of "gas-saving" products, explains how they're used and gives product names. Those with asterisks may save measurable, but small, amounts of gas. All others have been found not to increase fuel economy.

Air Bleed Devices. These devices bleed air into the carburetor. They usually are installed in the Positive Crankcase Ventilation line or as a replacement for idle-mixture screws.

The EPA has evaluated the following products: ADAKS Vacuum Breaker Air Bleed; Air-Jet Air Bleed; Aquablast Wyman Valve Air Bleed; Auto-Miser; Ball-Matic Air Bleed; Berg Air Bleed; Brisko PCV; Cyclone-Z; Econo Needle Air Bleed; Econo-Jet Air Bleed Idle Screws; Fuel Max*; Gas Saving Device; Grancor Air Computer; Hot Tip; Landrum Mini-Carb; Landrum Retrofit Air Bleed; Mini Turbocharger Air Bleed; Monocar HC Control Air Bleed; Peterman Air Bleed; Pollution Master Air Bleed; Ram-Jet; Turbo-Dyne G.R. Valve.

Vapor Bleed Devices. These devices are similar to the air bleed devices, except that induced air is bubbled through a container of a water and anti-freeze mixture, usually located in the engine compartment.

The EPA has evaluated: Atomized Vapor Injector; Frantz Vapor Injection System; Hydro-Vac: POWERFUeL; Mark II Vapor Injection System; Platinum Gasaver; V-70 Vapor Injector; SCATPAC Vacuum Vapor Induction System: Econo-Mist Vacuum Vapor Injection System; Turbo Vapor Injection System.

Accessory Drive Modifiers. These devices reduce power to specific auto accessories.

The EPA has evaluated: Morse Constant Speed Accessory Drive **; P.A.S.S. Kit**; PASS Master Vehicle Air Conditioner**.

Fuels and Fuel Additives. These materials are added to the gas tank.

The EPA has evaluated: Bycosin; EI-5 Fuel Additive; Fuelon Power; Johnson Fuel Additive; NRG #1 Fuel Additive; QEI 400 Fuel Additive; Rolfite Upgrade Fuel Additive; Sta-Power Fuel Additive; Stargas Fuel Additive; SYNeRGy-1; Technol G Fuel Additive; ULX-15/ULX-15D; Vareb 10 Fuel Additive; XRG #1 Fuel Additive.

Oils and Oil Additives. Usually these materials are poured into the crankcase.

The EPA has evaluated: Analube Synthetic Lubricant; Tephguard.

Driving Habit Modifiers. These are lights or sound devices to tell the driver to reduce acceleration or to shift gears.

The EPA has evaluated: AUTOTHERM**; Fuel Conservation Device; Gastell; IDALERT**.

Miscellaneous. The EPA has evaluated: BRAKE-EZ; Dynamix; Fuel Maximiser; Gyroscopic Wheel Cover; Kamei Spoilers**; Kat's Engine Heater; Lee Exhaust and Fuel Gasification EGR; Mesco Moisture Extraction System; P.S.C.U. 01 Device; Treis Emulsifier.

* Indicated a very small improvement in fuel economy but with an increase in exhaust emissions. According to Federal regulations, installation of this device could be considered illegal tampering.

** Indicated a very small improvement in fuel economy without an increase in exhaust emissions. However, cost-effectiveness must be determined by the consumer for a particular application.

Long story made short - don't waste your money on fuel additives because they are proven by the EPA not to work.

Have a nice day.

minsan depende sa driving pattern sir. lahat naman ng mga products na yan laging yung mga positive side ang sinasabi nila. meron akong customer na gumagamit ng ganyan. oo tumipid nga daw yung fuel consumption nya. pero ang daling nasira ng fuel pump. lolz. eh di ganun din di ba? yung nawalang costing sa fuel consumption dun na punta sa piyesang nasira. :happy:

The fact that they claim they're EPA registered, when the EPA doesn't accredit fuel savers, and that they claim it's Nobel Prize winning, when Nobel Prizes are not given out for commercial products but for pure research, tells you they're full of bull****.

if they do not work.. then why these oil companies selling us Vpower Nitro + racing ek ek...

even in their commercials, they claim they use fuel additives

Marketing. Siyempre.

But octane and lubricity are important. And some fuel additives do give you an octane boost. The question is... why spend xxx hundreds of pesos on a bottle of additive that doesn't tell you exactly what it does instead of simply going down to the gas station and spending an extra five bucks per liter buying high octane gas (which tells you exactly what RON you're getting) instead?

I remember a test done by a magazine... they took octane additives from the market and tested them for boost. The best ones only boosted octane by about 1 RON when used as indicated. Kinda pathetic when you can just go out and buy 100 RON from Petron. :grin:

meron kasi sa kabila thread.. 2T mixed in diesel as fuel additive...

siguro yung "fuel saver" additive might not cause you any savings at all.. but how about those fuel enhancers...

let us not even bother to debate if it is effective or not. just use plain COMMON SENSE. just compute the cost per bottle vs price of 1 liter of gasoline. those additives easily fetch for P400-600 per 500 ml bottle. how many liters of gasoline will P400-600 buy? e di buy ka na lang ng gasoline kesa additive!

But 2T in diesel is not a fuel saving additive, more of a lubricant that prolongs old school mechanical injection pumps and reduced noise and smoke. :)

Yes i know, that is why i asked...

kasi nga fuel additives "to save fuel" does not work, but how about those fuel additives "to enhance fuel"??

thread title is "Re: Fuel Treatment to Enhance Fuel Economy, Power, Durability and Emission of Engine"

kasi may post doon na "fuel additives DON'T work"

now are there other fuel additives that can improve POWER, DURABILITY AND EMISSION OF ENGINE?? lets cross out the "saving factor" kasi hoax yan savings unless you don't use your car.

dapat may DRIVER ADDITIVE

nilalagay sa driver para di gigil umapak sa accelerator

that will save fuel

^ nadadamay na lang yung iba kasi actually yung catch na talaga nagpapabenta dyan eh yung fuel savings ek ek IMO. Pero yeah, some fuel additives helps in cleaning and prolonging good performance of engine. Power booster afaik gray area din.

one easy way to find out; check kung meron patent.

Let's put it this way.

Buying an expensive additive is like buying Noni Juice at over a thousand pesos a bottle when simply buying some fruit at the "palengke" will give you the same benefits for much less.

It's like buying those MLM vitamins in super-dose sizes... 1000 mg+++ capsules of Vitamin C... when in reality your body can't even absorb that much, and it'll all go out the other end when you go to the bathroom (just like GTOil, which has three times the zinc that is considered safe for engines).

It can get even worse, if you consider octane additives... which, for hundreds of pesos, add just 1 RON to your gasoline's octane... when just spending the same amount of money on a tank of gasoline can give you an extra 5 RON (95 RON Premium versus 100 RON Blaze).

Your engine can use extra lubrication. It can use extra additives. It can use extra RON (but the only time this will gain you fuel economy is if you're using the wrong RON in the first place). But buying a separate additive for this is like buying your flouride toothpaste from Amway instead of the supermarket. :grin:

2t works and is lab tested so I would not say all fuel additives don't work.

At least you can buy it off the shelf instead of through con-men who'll charge you an arm and a leg for it.

I wonder if rebottling it would be worth the hassle? Imagine... you've got an additive you can prove works, in a nice, shiny package... :grin:

Talo yan sa GTOil! :grin:

Di lang pang kotse... pang tao din! :grin:

^ pang-alien pa nga eh. Masama lang side-effect.

yung friend ko sa delica nya naglagay sya ng fuel additive... ayun 1 week lang nasira injection pump nya... kaya ingat po tayo sa pag lagay ng fuel additive....

Power and fuel economy don't mix. Either give up one for the other. Can't have both of them, whomever is thinking that a Ferrari can blast down the highway with the fuel economy of a Vios must be high on glue or something.

That being said, nothing beats a well maintained and properly tuned engine. No excuses!

Now am just waiting for somebody to jump in on the bandwagon and sell their part of the fuel economy shindig of a story! :grin:
