mpk Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Saw this on the news just now. Brilliant bit of kit if it works as said, apparently it has been tested on an old Volvo for 2 years and the emmisions are lower now than they were 2 years ago and less than most new factory cars. It seems it improves combustion 2 fold by better air induction and helping the pistons moving more freely. Brilliant if it works and begs the question will the heavy tax on 4x4 be removed if one of these are fitted with an appropriate certificate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacksdad Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Well, seeing that those reports etc. are all over 2 years old, and this is the first time I've seen it, suggests it WAS indeed a load of old s#### :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
four-wheel-drive Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'm shore that if it works one of the big car manufacturers would have snapped it up like running an engine on water sounds great except it dose not work.
