Are You Able To Boost Fuel Consumption Through The Use Of Additives?

By Maria Lepdeva


Many retail stores stock fuel and oil additives and advertising for them abound. In case you have never noticed them, you will realize they all state that they will give your car better gas mileage when you add them to your tank. We are assured by some of the makers that their products are approved by the FDA, but the latter strongly rebuts this.

Assuming that they are not FDA approved, then it is very strange that they are allowed to be sold under the false pretense that they have been approved. Who is an individual to believe and just what does one do under these factors? In the absence of an honest and truthful authority, consumers have difficulties evading deceiving product claims. Add the additive in the tank in conjunction with the gas when you next fill up, and, so the instructions say, your car's gas mileage will go up. Simply because the additive occupies space in the gas tank you will need less gas to fill it up, but you are not going to realize an improvement in the gas mileage.

It seems that there are deposits at the bottom of the gas tank which need to be cleaned out, and so in the additives you will find platinum, magnesium and tin, which they say do this. Since there are plastic components in a car's fuel system that can be dissolved by acetone, be sure to avoid any product that contains it. Some point out that a small amount of acetone won't hurt, but there is no way to know when you have surpassed this amount. It is pretty risky to try, considering there is no evidence that the product works to begin with. The product can potentially well not work, but you could also end up with a ruined fuel system. The majority of additives are not going to harm your car in any way, but they are also not necessary to add to your gas tank.

If a vehicle owner can be made to believe that this product can make his car better, he will buy it, so this is what the marketing boys aim to do. Many people really are seduced by the advertising claims, and regularly put an additive in along with their fuel. These people really have absolutely no way to learn if the product works as well as they say it will, but as long as they can get enough people to buy their product, they do all right. The primary reason that these ingredients are unnecessary is that the fuel manufacturers already add ingredients that have the same purpose. In spite of being inexpensive, if fuel additives do not actually do what they are supposed to, buying them is a waste of money. If your gasoline probably does it, why are you being deceived into buying something that doesn't help.

The oil you buy already includes what the additives for oil contain. What is important, though, is to take advantage of the oil that is recommended for your car. Using the incorrect class of oil could damage your car's engine very badly.
