My wife went to a garage sale last weekend and bought four of these things for practically nothing . Do these things actually help ? Would it be worth trying one? Looks like it is about 8`` long , with a 3/8`` line going through it, with compression fittings on both ends.

The price = the benefits.

What ever she paid it was WAY too much, unless she needed frig magnets.

JMZ

Thats kinda what I thought, she paid a dollar a piece. When she was looking at them she called and told me it was diesel fuel conditioner, I thought it was the liquid kind. Thanks for the replies.

Who knows! They may be worth more than a buck on e-Bay. Heck if someone will pay $37K for renting a Nebraska kids forehead for a month who knows what those magnets are worth!

I have a X wife who told me about FAT MAGNETS. She had a weight problem, an it was anougher quick cure. I found one too. Jim

But I'll bet yours was more expensive

HOLY COW AND WOW, YOU FOUND FUEL LINE MAGNETS? I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THOSE FOR YEARS!!!

Now that I've said that and got your attention, yes, they are worth something (to the people that sold them).

jimk

Not really, Let me remember Corvette, boat, lots of money ect, except for my 401k. You would think I would learn my lesson. Try spend 2k a week for medical expences now. I have learned a lot..
If there is anougher time I am going to hire a maid, ect. Jim

I don't agree, JMZ said he got it for practically nothing and the fuel magnets have no benefits.

Well, if it will work stick the magnets on your oil filter. Probably do more good there anyway.

I guess since we are on the subject I like to take rare earth magnets and stick them to the oil pan / cover on all fluid containing objects. They are very strong and seem to help pull a little metal down from time to time.

Never tried it, but what the heck, it's worth a try..............

Any particular album?



IIIIIIII, just want to celebraaaaaate!

BoostdCTD

Oh they should all work equally well.

Judging by the lovely hairstyles and glasses that is before my time.

The only possible benefit would be if you had rust or steel/iron particles in your fuel. But then that's what the fuel filter is for. Otherwise there is no possible benefit at all.

Neither do magnets on you body or in your bed. The entire earth is a magnet and we are in a magnetic field constantly. If it had any effect it would have happened by now.

It always pees me off whenever I see this kind of crap advertized. It's all snake oil!

However I do have some very fine magic stickers which will improve your fuel economy by 30%! Only $14.95 each. No checks please, cash only.
