Question Fuelcat

I have just been chatting to an old friend who runs several classic cars and motorbikes, as well as a 1998 2.5 Diesel Landrover and he swears by Fuelcat, the alluminum catalyst pellets that are placed in a vehicles fuel tank. He tells me all the claims are true and the product really does do what it says.

Has any other member used this product and if so did you or are you still benefiting from its use?

Never heard of it before but I'll be interested to hear what some of the other members think of it.

I'm sure they won't me quoting from there site.....http://www.fuelcat.co.uk/

Quote:
The FUEL CAT fuel catalyst induces chemical reactions among fuel molecules at low temperatures (such as those our vehicles and fuel tanks experience) and it returns them to their original state at the conclusion of the reaction ready to initiate a new sequence.
Fuel molecules have a tendency to cluster together. At the point of combustion, the outer molecules protect the inner molecules from being covered with oxygen, resulting in some of the inner molecules going un-burned and blowing out from the exhaust as emissions.
When fuel is passed through the FUEL CAT fuel catalyst just prior to combustion, a reaction occurs which separates the clustered molecules so more of the fuel molecules surface area is exposed to oxygen at the time of combustion.
No more than an injector nozzle in good condition doesn't already do then, and likely nothing at all useful. I haven't tried it myself but sounds as likely as clamping magnets around the fuel line for actual usefulness.
