This sounds like another "fuel saving" device I recently read a report on. The "Fitch Fuel Catalyst". This wonderful device is sold as a bullet shaped canister that you drop into your fuel tank. They recommend upwards to six units for a 25 gallon tank. They sell two for $49.95!!
This thing is supposed to catalyze the fuel and "release" the fuels potential by breaking down the heavier hydorcarbon components into the lighter, more combustible, hydrocarbon components.
We receive a publication, Motorcycle Consumer News (MCN) that did a product report on this thing and they found no evidence (surprise, surprise) that it had any effect at all. In fact, the manufacturer stated that the catalyst needed to stay in the fuel tank for 24 hours for maximum effect. When they were asked about the fact that a motorcycle on a long ride will be refueling every 3 hours or so they said, "No problem, it will still work."
It never ceases to amaze me how gullible we can be about product like this. There simply is no free lunch and if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.
Bottom line, if you absolutely "have" to have better gas mileage, take your foot out of the radiator!!
