Has anyone any experience with one of those Tornado fuel saver things? The kind that advertise huge mileage increases. They seem to cost arroun 60 bucks, was wondering about the effectiveness.

Re: Tornado

On several off-roading forums I frequent, they have been discussed ad nausim. The general consensus is that they are junk.

Thanks. I will save the 60 bucks and rely on the tried and true method of correct tire pressure, good tune ups and moderate driving habits

Re: Tornado

You would think that car makers would install them from the factory if they really worked. Its just a cheap piece of plastic.<br /><br />But then again, arent all car makers in the back pockets of the oil companies?<br /><br />Just wanted to add a little bit of clarity to the issue. :D <br /><br />Ken
