In my home country you see these magnets in most workshops...lots of brands and prices..however they don't work...most of my mates who had them experienced no difference, well some experienced minimal difference. Better to spend ur $$ on other justifiable mods.

When you burn fuel, doesnt it set of a chain reaction anyway to blow everything up. The only way to minimise the amount of fuel burnt is to burn less fuel, rearranging its structure wont change the volume you burn, it might make the fuel burn more efficiently but there are so many hydrogen and oxygen molecules in there packed together with very strong bonds, the higher the octance the stronger the bonds i believe, that putting them all in uniform structure i dont think will make any difference when we ignite the crap out of them anyway.

I quote this from the ebay link,

"The fuel saver accelerates combustion and burns more of the fuel that is normally exhausted as un-burned pollution."

Ok, yes it might burn more of the fuel because of its uniform stucture, but it still burns the same amount of fuel, hence doesnt save any petrol already used.

I've got one on my car atm. For the $40 I paid, I figured I'd give it a go. Installed it about 3 months ago and although it may be coincidence, an issue with "hunting idle" stopped.

Other than that, I've seen no benefit to having one of these. I got the same fuel consumption etc etc. Now that I'm promted, I'll remove mine soon to see if the hunting idle problem comes back and I will let you know what happens. :P

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".

      I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.

      A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
