Installing Fuel Savers

[Peasant]

Hey guys, i bought these fuel saver thingies off ebay for something to do and I have to put them on my fuel line. There is 2 lines and didnt know if fuel was fed thru both or if 1 took excess fuel back to the tank. If this is the case does someone know which is the one that feeds the motor fuel. The left or the right one?. Thanks guys

one will be the return line. I dont know about the VS, but on my VN the line on the "passenger" side of the fuel rail is the supply line, the one on the "driver" side (the rubber one) in the return line...

Let us know if the magnet works!

[kopper69]

Are they just the ones with magnets in them?

[B3NKobe]

Do these actually work?

find the fuel filter at the rear of the car and that will be the supply line

ive seen hiclone, the other ones that go on your fuel line, the ones that fit around your injectors and none made any difference if any it was small, not worth the cost anyway, but it'd be nice if there was one that did, im sure there is and there prob not cheap.

helium ballons to counteract ones lead based foot, should save a bit of fuel for nothing ^_^ save it for a track day

I'd be very careful cutting into fuel lines as they run at around 35 psi which is more pressure than is in your tyres. On a VS the lines are at the rear of the motor - both in and out. With the greatest respect I'd like to suggest that you will benefit more by leaving these "gadgets" in the boot uninstalled besause if you instal them and something goes wrong it will cost you far more than what these "gadgets' claim to save. We all want to save $$$ and there are plenty of people out there who will sell us (for $$$) the way to save $$$.....I wonder why.

yeah it's like putting an add in the paper saying 'send me $5 dollars and I'll tell you how to make a $1000' then when they send $5 send a letter back saying 'put an ad in the paper saying send me $5 and I'll tell you how to make $1000'.

This contraption is just a little thing thats hooks onto your fuel line, u dont need to cut it or anything like that.... im pretty sure that it wouldNT bugger it up.

[jafo]

if it just hooks onto your fuel line how the hell is that going to reduce or save money in fuel ?????

[newbie]

apparantly they are sposed to use the magnets to de-ionise the fuel, so that there is more space between the molecules, hence better combustion... well thats the theory anyway. You think for a start a metal fuel line would stuff it up...

[kopper69]

There is quite a bit of research behind it. Some of the ebay sites do make some 'stretched' claims, but they will work. Recently i was looking at them, they arent cheap, although they should be because they are just magnets. Not sure of the polarity of them tho. Anyway i chose a random person off the list of people that have brought them off ebay and emailed him and asked if he had any improvements using it. I was lucky becuase hes actually doing some extensive research on them. In terms of fuel savings etc. i will be in contact with him soon and advise you of the results. However i do think you can expect fuel savings even if its just a few $ a week

I still don't see no new cars fitted with magnets or fuel catalysts....could it be they don't work? Remember there's a sucker born every day. (and yes, I have been suckered, hook, line and sinker)

the return line is the one coming off the pressure regulator. So put it on the other one.

Knw a guy that put some of these magnet thingos on his diesel mazda bravo and got 70 extra kays out of a tank. They clain an increse in power too. Chuck your car on the dyno, then install thingos and run it up again. Then youl know for sure on a benifit. Good luck
