Let's Be Blunt: All Gas Saving Devices, Powders, Additives, Gizmos are Scams
We were recently approached by a company hustling some sooper-dooper gas additive that allegedly improved mileage 25% and could we write them up, please?
No. We couldn't and didn't. Because they are all scams, every single one of them. The only way to get better gas mileage is to drive the speed limit, keep your car tuned and your tires inflated properly.
This article talks about one of the most recent scams, and here is a link to a Federal Trade Commission report, "Gas-Saving" Products: Fact or Fuelishness? that gives the straight dope.
