Has anyone tried the water4gas products to improve gas mileage? It seems to good to be true, but I have a friend that installed it and claims to get 50MPG! ---

When people get scammed into buying something like this, they can’t admit embarressement, so the lie about the relults. It’s natural; politicians do it all the time. Most people don’t know how to precisely measure their gas milege. A friend was buying a used pickup truck to pull his 5th wheel camper. A relative offered him a Dodge Ram pickup, claiming it got 30 miles per gallon!! Rather than calling his relative an outright liar, I walked my friend through the process of gassing up, and the fact that 2 different gas pumps will shut off at different gas levels in the tank. Also, that an empty pickup, driven slowly down a long hill, such as mountain foothills, can turn a remarkeable mileage figure! So, you decide whether your friend is lying, uninformed or just dreaming! He is certainly not speaking the truth. ---

Not sure why he’ll lie about this product…I’m not pimping, just trying to get an answer since gas prices are so outrageous. Can anyone actually admit buying this product? I must admit that I did order it, but now I guess I’m a couple of hundred dollars short, maybe I should have put the money in the gas tank instead! Oh well, live and learn… ---

yes. you should have thought about it first. that couple hundred dollars you just spent to “save” gas, could have bought a couple tanks of gas
