Gas prices are raging high now that we are knee deep in summer travel season and people are on the lookout for anything that will help. Do not count on gas additives to boost your fuel consumption. A government agency recently named some advertising claims to avoid such as “improving fuel economy by 20%” and Federal government approved
products.
The EPA has tested over 100 devices and only came back with six that gave improvements in fuel economy. These are also fractional improvements in the mileage. Do not fall for these ripoffs even if you see it on TV or hear it on the radio.
It may not be a good thing for your car to put in additives. If you want to boost your fuel then drink a healthy protein drink and ride your bike to work that is the best way to get around in these trying times. It may also make your heart stronger for when you see the pump prices in a few months.
