Title: Fuel Saver Kits? Post by ajay on Jul 4th, 2007, 9:13am Hi, I've come across a fuel saver kit on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FUEL-SAVER-KIT-Ford-Maverick-Explorer-Granada-Scorpio_W0QQitemZ110144682763QQihZ001QQcategoryZ122139QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem. Do they work? It would be fitted to a 2.5 TD |

Post by Kjetil S on Jul 4th, 2007, 5:24pm As the TD doesn't even have an 'ignition system', even if the gadget did as advertised (which it is almost guaranteed not to), it wouldn't work. Diesel engines fire by heat and compression, not sparks. Edit: If you DO want to save on the fuel bill, look into fueling it on cooking oil or similar. People who have tried it say the exhaust smell like a chip boiler, but it's a lot cheaper than diesel. |

Title: Re: Fuel Saver Kits? Post by sector-9 on Jul 5th, 2007, 7:36pm I run my TD scorp on varying ratios of cooking oil. Slightly down on power and mpg, but also smoother and quieter engine, not to mention 'fuel' at less than 50p/ltr! Darren |
