I was browsing eBay and came across this. (http://cgi.ebay.ca/Honda-Civic-Gas-Fuel-Saver-96-97-98-99-00-01-02-03-04_W0QQitemZ170058882448QQihZ007QQcategoryZ42604QQ rdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
Afew things come to mind: Does it work (prob not, but if so--how?) I'm thinkin its similar to the Tornado thread I've read here...the results are in your head. As well, if it DOES work, wouldn't it be easier to just go to the hardware store and pick up a "rare earth" magnet and strap it on the fuel line?

They covered them on Mythbusters and didn't even get .1 gallons more

I dont have a link for it, but they did a bunch of different ones, they did a device that said it did the same thing as that, they used both Fuel Injected and Carb'ed cars and went over i think 3 different devices with each and they all came out busted.

Ok I can see two things right now. First, most of the auctions are private not allowing on lookers to see what they were selling. Second and most important, they say it takes about a 1000 miles to actually work. In reality with normal daily driving, by the time the average person achieves a thousand miles and find it actually doesnt work , it will be too late to leave feedback for the seller thus is why you do not see tons of negative feedback from that seller on a bull chit product. Most instantly leave feedback because they fell for the ad and think its going to work.

Bah... what a bunch of crap. Nothing in gas can be polarized by a magnet.
Also, if anyone is interested I have these pills that I make that'll make you live to be 100. Only $5 a bottle and made from nothing but sugar.

I didn't think there was anything in your gas lines that a magnet would do anything to...unless you got a rusty tank or something....just thought ya'll would get a laugh. Like I said, I didn't think it would work, but whatever...never know for sure till ya ask, right??

I bought some from Adam about a year ago. I am on my fifth bottle now and will need to reorder soon. They also make your wiener bigger. I swear! Honest to god these pills work!
