Science and GasWiz
There have been many attempts to promote magnetic catalysers for internal combustion engines and no doubt there will be plenty more.
This particular device has been around in various guises since at least 1995.
Peter Brock, long prior to his death, had a major falling-out with Holden, because Peter Perfect had been sucked into a magnetic fuel-saving scam and wanted them fitted on the Brock Holdens. Holden sensibly declined and the relationship fell to bits. The moral of that story is that anyone can kid themselves that fuel can be saved by magnetising it. Maybe it even can, but a saving of 20-30% or more, as GasWiz claims, flies in the face of all scientific knowledge and common sense.
Magnetic fuel-savers have been with us for many, many years and have been subject to evaluation by scientific bodies worldwide. The evidence of their failures is easily obtained and as time goes on, I shall collate some of that information here, just as I have with Fuelstar.
Note that not one scientific test is shown anywhere on Alt-Power's website.
It seems that that's about to change, as the executive of GasWiz will be undertaking to prominently advertise the results of testing.
This, of course can now be updated to note that testing will not be allowed on the device.
To date, several universities and research institutes have conducted testing of magnetic devices on fuel systems. Not one single positive test has ever been returned.
Minnesota State University has some good resources on the subject, having exhaustively tested every kind of nonsense so far.
Also, the ever-popular and highly believable Popular Mechanics.
Do have a look at some of the blog comments on Popular Mechanics' site! If you're one of those ones who accuse PM of being in the pay of "big oil", then GasWiz is definitely for you! (We also stock a range of tinfoil beanies to protect you from the mind-control rays the US government is aiming at you.)
