What?!?! Magnet mod?!....

I was washing my car the other morning and my neighbor comes up and starts talking to me..I usually talk to him all the time but he never really says much about my car..but for osme reason he was asking me if I have had a dyno run yet and I said no..he was like well when you do ..make your first pull and then add a magnet to your fuel rail and see what difference it makes..at this point I am like WTF? He trys to explain it but I don't understand his translation of it..so I let him add one to my fuel rail as he says it will increase gas mileage as well or some crap plus add more "pep" ..and I will be damn if the car didn't feel more peppy! What in the world could this possibly do for a car? I know its not my imagination because the car has never chirped second so loud before..

what....
 
This mod is true.

I have my electro-magnet coil lining the run of my entire fuel system. It's powered by my fluxcapacitor and gave me at least 25 RWHP.

:rolleyes: Seriously, if you do a dyno, I'd like to see what this does and why it might work....
 
when gasoline remains in your tank for a while, the fuel molecules start to cluster. the molecules on the inside of these clusters cant be exposed to the oxygen necessary for combustion. the magnet delivers a adrupt magnetic field to break up the fuel clusters, exposing all molecules to the oxygen. you get the best fuel burn = more hp and fuel economy
 
This myth has been around for years. I can remember seeing this on either road and track tv or car and driver. One of those shows. Anyways they used a dyno and proved it did nothing at all.

They also went on to explain that in theory it could work but you would need one heck of a strong magnet to break the molecular bond of the fuel.

In the past I have seen these magnets on ebay. They strap around your fuel line.
 
Many, many times I have seen dyno run #2 far exceed the 1st pull w/ no changes. Your neighbor's suggestion is useless. However, some old timers used to put magnets in the bottom of the oil pan or use a magnetic oil drain plug. They trapped the larger particles.

negative on this explanation

Where did u get your fluxcapacitor, ive been lookin for one :banana:
 
I've bought one of these and put it on my car. The idea is two magnets with the same charge are wrapped around the fuel line. As you should know, same charges repel one another. What this does is it sends a repelling charge through across the fuel line at the point where the magnets are at. This "supposedly" forces small, metal particles in the fuel to seperate and allowing for a more complete combustion of the fuel. Does it really work ? Who knows. If it does, the difference will be minimal. I will also comment and say I use an oil filter magnet as they are proven to help hold small metal particles out of the motor and in the oil filter.

the US Department of Energy , says the explanation is right on ? or are you smarter then them to ? :shrug:

i never sead it worked , but i did know the theory of it and how it was to work...

First of all, the problem is that it is just that....theory. Theoretically, if I were on the wing of a plane that was about to crash, and at the last second I jumped up off the wing really fast, I may be able to survive the crash. LOL!!

Secondly, go back to that link and read it again. It specifically states that a magnet has no measurable effects on fuel. Fuel has practically no ions, and thus cannot be affected by a magnetic field.
Now I suppose if there were enough rust in your fuel tank, maybe you'd see some improvement. :thumb:
