Update on My Fuel Savings Test

Well, frankly, I’m a bit disappointed.  I have run through 4 more tanks of gas and the first of those four tanks showed an increase of 2.05 mpg, which was great.  However, the next three tanks were not very impressive.  The first showed a .67 mpg increase from the original.  The second had a decrease of 2.61 mpg and the most recent had a decrease of 2.17 mpg.

In all fairness to the company, there can be several reasons why this has happened.  My car has 98,000 plus miles and it may take a bit of work to get the insides cleaned out enough for the product to show good results.  There are several formulations of gasoline.  For example there is one formulation for summer and one for winter.  There may be oth4ers as well.  In winter gas economy tends to decrease.  Luckily, I have kept records of my gas mileage since I bought my car.

Well, overall, my gas mileage was better last winter.  So my last two thoughts are either there is a problem with my engine that will soon surface of the product just isn’t what they claim.  I will look for a couple of testers to see what results they get.

I do have a product from another company that I will be testing as soon as I get a tester for it.  I won’t have much to report for a month or so as it does take time unless the testers take a vacation or do a lot of traveling.
