Well, I never thought there would be SO MUCH negativity about this brilliant little device.

Perhaps it ought to have been called the Vortex or Teleporter, may have given it a sci fi edge then.

Yes, although I wouldn't wish to associate an ice cream with anything to do with my vehicle.

Honestly though, there's so much money in these kind of things, because people either don't understand the basic principles of how an engine works, or just can't be bothered to learn! Keep the price below £20 - £30 and people are willing to take a punt based on absolutely no proof or evidence at all.. It's genius really..

Now, if you can increase MPG by 33% every car manufacturer would be fitting these and boasting how many miles per gallon you can do.

Still there's one born every minute and they have probably also bought the fuel magnet as well.
