Course it will, you pay me £100 for my magnets and you wont' be able to spend it on fuel, thus saving you from spending it on fuel.
I could save you more money on fuel if you want?

Can I dilute my petrol with washing-up liquid to clean the engine and save fuel?

I have heard that the magnets do actually work. they laminate the fuel flow which helps with energy release or some thing. but have no experience and seen no proof

If you lot want economy, fit a 4-pot...

I hear if you dilute 1 part PI55 and 2 parts petrol you get a nice sweet driveble engine and also cleans the injectors via the acidity chemicals in the PI55!! so have a go lads, iv ben emptying my sack in the tank for years.... am saving in bottles aswell...

Sod it, just drop a deep fat fried Mars Bar in the tank for extra lubrication and a few extra kilajoules of energy.
325i heads are made of chocolate anyway, so the deposits will beef it up.

After the fuel has been reduced to droplets by the injectors how can it remember that it has been 'laminated'?George_Of_The_Jungle wrote:I have heard that the magnets do actually work. they laminate the fuel flow which helps with energy release or some thing. but have no experience and seen no proof
I would put a magnet in my beer if I thought it would last longer.

If they worked, wouldn't they already be fitted from the factory?

How's about installing one of these little beauties - someone (who claims to be a Shaman!) just e-mailed me bringing it to my attention, claiming to have gained another 11mpg after fitting it
