I'm fitting three of them and I bet my Chevaux will run on air. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Save-gas-Better-f ... 1e5f72859dI've seen one fitted to a car, all it is is a capacitor. (not my car I hasten to add  )

Re: The O/T thread! A capacitor?!!! Wow, even better than I thought! Look at all the graphs, ye cynical types - if it was snake oil would they have all these scientific graphs and pictures of explosions inside t' cylinders an' shit?
I reckon, between this device, a few 'Broquet' pellets in my tank and a magnet clamped around my fuel line I should see, ooh, a very empty wallet.
And the worst thing of all is the peeps who 'feedback' saying it works... (shakes head sadly)

Re: The O/T thread! As you are probably aware, I am a girl and girls can sometimes-occassionally be a little bit moody and/or touchy about things. Things are not helped by being up most of the night feeling unwell. Here is a list of some things that can irritate me: Cold-call telesales. (esp when I'm in the shower) Silent calls. A "compensation culture" that I think is going someway to spoiling everything or at the very least making our insurance premiums creep up in price. Congratulations "chameleon-telesales Ltd.", calling on behalf of a company who would like to help me claim for any accidents I might have had and then not saying anything when I got out of the shower to answer the phone. You WIN. Still, I feel much better having had my little temper tantrum about how rude they are!

I don't understand why you would get out of the shower to answer the telephone, if it is important they will phone again later, or are you expecting an urgent call? miarke

That much from a woman I can deal with, where they have me beat is in their ability to speak so rapidly. When I've done something wrong I soon know about it by the rate of knots I get spoken to (at), it sounds like the intro of The Who's Baba O'reilly.
