Thanks guys. Even if the recommended change intervals for synthetic is twice that of mineral, I still end up losing money in the long run since synthetic more often than not costs 4 times more than mineral.

exactly... thats why my wife's car uses regular motor oil and changes it every 5000km inspite of her brother's suggestion of using synthetic motor oil and less frequent oil changes.

Thanks Ghosthunter for sharing. This topic is very helpful. Hindi "basura" ang laman.

OT: As a Tsikoteer, I prefer to listen to the member with 5,000+ posts than that with only 3 posts pa lang.

[SIZE=5]Kindly note that I am just a spammer trying to advertise for free on the internet. I am too cheap to pay for real advertising for my product. It is also possible that my product does not work as advertised (or might not work at all) and it is over-priced against its real market value.[/SIZE]

Convert into required air mixture temp. free 2-3 days trial. price 5,500 only. for more info contact Anthony # 666. "this is not ordinary device system."

Nag spam ka na nasa thread ka pa na tinitira ang mga devices na yan...

Guys, tanong ko lang kung twing kailan dapat ipalinis ang mga injectors ng gas engine and kung saan mas maganda magpalinis ito? I know clean injectors plays high role in reducing your fuel consumption.

[theveed]

cesar: Sa Automechanika sa Industriya Street meron... Snap On ang machine brand nila but I don't know kung magkano and paano.

I read sa board a long time ago meron ultrasonic ekek cleaning din ng injectors, don't know where din...

Interested to know as well.

Oh, you can read up sa thread ni doc wiretap as well about Carbon Clean

Funny, my father in law has a carbon clean machine at home that he has no clue where it came from.

Do you know about the new fuel saving device called Car Vortex? Si Michelle Bayle pa ung nag-iinterview dun sa actual test nila? Has anyone tried it? How much kaya un?

Is that one of those non-moving turbine blades that you fit in the car's intake? If it is, it has been tested (by US automotive magazines) and proven NOT to work as claimed.

si michelle bayle lang ang ok dun hehe

So is there any device out there that actually works?

Khaos Super Turbo Charger... works great.... as a paperweight on my desk.

[niky]

:lol:

One device that actually works? The Honda City 1.3... or the Kia Picanto, or the Getz Diesel. Anything with a smaller engine.

Michelin's fuel economy tires actually save you gas because of their low rolling resistance, but it's a toss-up whether the amount of gas saved balances out the additional cost of the tires.

Guys, I just installed a device invented by one of my friend. Similar sya sa Khaos pero not that much. We installed it at talagang effective bumaba yung fuel consumption nya. This is jut my opinion pero nasa mga 100 cars na ung nakabitan nya halo ung carburator and EFI. Mine is a 1.8GL Toyota Revo and I bought it for 2k pesos only.

could it also because your driving habits have changed since you installed the device?... so how long have you been using it? a week?

can anybody share experiences on gas savers currently in the market, like Khoas. I would like to install one in my car.

[OTEP]

Madaming threads dito about fuel savers. Just use the search function.

Here is one: http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showt...ighlight=KHAOS

For me, fuel savers are generally crap. But it's your money. Blow it on some dumb fuel saver or just buy useful fuel or spend on proper maintenance?

Avoid it like the plague.

We have a sticky in Car Talk: Guide to Fuel Saving Gadgets

There are no known fuel savers that actually work. Take some time to look up the US EPA website. In their extensive testing, they have only found one fuel saver to work... and it does it by disconnecting the Air Conditioner pulley. In other words, to save gas, remove the aircon. (kind of useless in this country).
