Jaymz21 Neutral Newbie January 1, 2004 Share January 1, 2004 (edited) perhaps u should read this first? FuelMax loses to FTC for deceptive advertising claims. The marketers of the Super FuelMAX automotive fuel-line magnet, advertised as providing dramatic fuel-saving and emissions-reducing benefits, have agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that their claims were unsubstantiated. These guys claimed that sticking a pair of magnets around your fuel line would increase your gas mileage by 27% whilst reducing harmful pollutants by 42%. The one slight flaw in their plan? There's nothing in fuel that can be affected by magnets...... The FTC alleged that the manufacturers did not possess or rely on reasonable substantiation for the claims they made. The complaint also alleged that the manufacturers falsely represented that tests performed at a certified EPA laboratory prove that Super FuelMAX performed to the above figures. Finally, the FTC charged that ads for Super FuelMAX featuring a testimonial from Alexander Elnekaveh endorsing the product did not reflect Elnekaveh's actual experience with the product or the typical or ordinary experience of members of the public who use the product. Therefore, the FTC complaint said, the representations concerning the testimonial were false or misleading. source: http://www.chris-longhurst.com/carbibles/i...&additives.html FTC report: http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2001/11/gadget.htm Edited January 1, 2004 by Jaymz21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zolidlim Neutral Newbie January 1, 2004 Share January 1, 2004 it has no effect on my ride, as maybe its running on cvt engine, and worst still, the mileage does not improve and it deteriorates. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
