Topic: MPG Anyone? ... how about Better MPG Anyone?
Better MPG with Amsoil Synthetic Motor Oils and Lubricants
__________________
Oil at $75 a Barrel ... Gasoline at $3.00 a Gallon (and going higher) ... We all want to increase our MPG.
Synthetic Motor Oils and Lubricants = Increased Fuel Efficiency (better MPG).
Synthetic Motor Oils and Lubricants are made from pure chemicals with molecular uniformity - usually natural gas - and not refined crude oil. Because of synthetic lubricants molecular uniformity, ... they excel in reducing friction, ... which improves fuel efficiency (MPG).
It has been proven by Amsoil (and other leading oil manufacturers and suppliers) through use of industry accepted fuel economy tests, field demonstrations (and as witnessed by most of our customers), that switching to synthetic oils and lubricants can (and does) improve fuel economy (mpg).
Amsoil Synthetic Motor Oils reduce friction and drag better than petroleum oils, resulting in significant fuel economy increases. In a 1.2 million mile demonstration, AMSOIL Lubricants showed a 4.5% increase in gas mileage. Other tests have shown increases of as much as 15% under certain weather and driving conditions. Yet, because every vehicle is different, as are driving habits and conditions, it is difficult to accurately project an exact increase.
Since AMSOIL synthetic motor oils create less friction, they help reduce fuel consumption, increasing a vehicle's fuel economy significantly. Operating with AMSOIL, the engine doesn't have to work as hard to turn the wheels, so it takes less fuel to run.
SPECIAL NOTE: Depending upon your driving habits, conditions, and climate ... switching viscosities can improve fuel economy also. I've observed a MPG increase when switching grades (5w-30 compared to 10w-40).

Get the pill.
www.fueldude.myffi.biz
I am a representative for MPG-CAP. To give you guys the skinny, it is a $2.00 tablet that you put in your tank at every fillup. It does not CHANGE your gasoline like an additive, rather it goes with your gas to the combustion chamber where it is deposited on valve faces, top of the cylinder, and spark plugs to make the gasoline burn more completely and give you more HP and better MPG. The first 2 or 3 tank fulls you want to use 4 tabs per fillup as a loading phase, then you drop the dose to one cap per 20 gallon fillup. People using the product, like myself, are getting anywhere from a 10-30% increase in MPG. A blister-pack of 10 costs $19.95 plus shipping.
If you are impressed with the product and you want to sell them as well, you can sign up as a rep. too. This IS an young MLM business and these tabs have been sold since late 2005.

i too am marketing a mpg tablet (read: alka selzer) that i will sell for just $1.90 tablet, although they usually come in two tablet packages and 36 to a box. (also effective for heartburn relief) I have had much sucess myself as i have increased my gas mileage (downhill vs. uphill) by adding these effervessent tablets to my gas tank.
simply email me at i'mgonnaripyouoff@youdidn'tseeitcoming.com and i will respond with more details (an offshore account where you can send the money to me and my wife as we sip drinks on the beach at your expense) please note the effectiveness of these tablets is limited only by (my lack of research into any solution for your real gas mileage problems) how soon you add them. they've worked wonders for me (due to my cronic bad acid) and they can work for you too (sucker)
thanks for your time,

Tony, on the bottom of my homepage there is a link to click: "click here to see the test results".
Mr. Dennis Nickles got no measureable reading of HC, CO, or NO during his smog test for his 1999 Ford F-150, V6, which is not common at all.
My sponsor has before and after smog reports for his Tundra, and it showed lowered emissions.
The MPG-CAP will work with:
gasoline
diesel
biodiesel
ethanol-gas blends
The mpg increase is at least 10%
