Gee, I've never heard anyone say "fuel line magnets" (a gimmick that's been fooling the clueless for decades) so eloquently:

"It is a MATCHED PAIR of tuned custom sealed Neodymium Super inductors that generate a frequency resonance between its two faces."

Madison Avenue at its best!

I did notice that they chose to use the neodymium-iron magnets in their blurb instead of the Samarium Cobalt 2-17 type. Not only does the Samarium Cobalt 2-17 produce a higher magnetic field, more importantly (for their purposes) it sounds much cooler and more high-tech!

Don't feel bad it you bought one. You can always take the two magnets out and have two great tools for picking up nails, etc. when you spill them.

While on the topic of scams, I came across this site while browsing another car forum. Two of the senior members of that forum thoroughly endorsed the product but it sounded like a sales pitch so I'm not sure what to think. I'm planning on buying some to try it on my girlfriend's volvo before spraying any on one of my precious vehicles

Just about everything on the face of the earth has some magnetic properties, even saw a demonstration of a piece of plastic and a frog being suspended, by a magnetic field. this is the same theory of the magnetic patches that people wear to rid themselves of pain, the fuel or blood, for individuals, passing through the magnetic field alines itself through polorization for better flow properties and also achieves some grouping by properties to achieve a better burn ratio, either in a viehicle engine or in the bodies engine.

Now how is that for an explination that I just pulled outta my, well you know.

George,

"I did notice that they chose to use the neodymium-iron magnets in their blurb instead of the Samarium Cobalt 2-17 type. Not only does the Samarium Cobalt 2-17 produce a higher magnetic field, more importantly (for their purposes) it sounds much cooler and more high-tech! "

I'm starting to worry about you George. Do you have tape on the bridge of your glasses and a well used pocket protector? Do people avoid you at parties? Do people tend not to even invite you to parties? Do your kids get their Mom to drive them to school rather than you?

(Serious question - how many letters are you legally entitled to list after your name? I'm guessing 6-8)

Additionally, you have recently made several infractions of rule# 2 of our constitushun, namely -


"2. Never use words with more than two syllables. Folks in this forum don’t like to use word-books (dichunaries). Many don’t even own one. Some can’t even spell dichunary……

Subsection 2.i – Compound words also make the majority (with no more than Grade 9) feel inferior. In this new millennium, we need to respect dumber people’s feelings.

Subsection 2.ii - To make your brothers feel better, pick a really big word and constantly miss-use. Also see article 9 below as well. "

For Gawd sakes George - yer the only person in here that can even pronounce "neodymium", assuming it even is a word.....maybe it's your really big word.....


Get out into your garage and get those lungs filled with the smell of grease, welding flash and oil.

Penn Dick,

"Just about everything on the face of the earth has some magnetic properties, even saw a demonstration of a piece of plastic and a frog being suspended, by a magnetic field. "

And just where was this demonstration - George's house?

Or was attendance a condition of your parole?


With the way doctors love to write perscriptions these days, there's really no reason for guys like these two to be the way they are....

Another BS product just like that volcano air-twister, sits-in-your intake POS thingy a while back. They appeal to those in a niche who are desparately looking for any/all the newest "gadgets" to make even the slightest bit of difference in performance, etc.

If interested, I have tons and tons of bottles of water from the Fountain of Youth for sale. "That's right, 6 easy payment of just $49.99 (+S&H) or save BIG money by making a 1-time full payment of $299. Call now; have your credit card ready; operators standing by...."
