Platinum Claimed to Save Gasoline In Automotive Use.
Boston, Mass. - National Fuelsaver Corp. Has developed an automotive fuel-saving
system using platinum which will increase the fuel mileage of gasoline powered
vehicles by 22%, According to Joel Robinson, technical director.
The system Robinson said, operates by injecting platinum, in vapor form, into the gas-air
mixture before it enters an engines combustion chambers. The platinum causes the mixture
to burn more completely inside the engine, in the same way that the platinum in the catalytic
converter causes the unburned fuel to burn.
The system consists of a molded plastic container a platinum solution. Engine vacuum draws
the platinum vapor into the intake manifold where it joins the fuel-air mixture entering the
engine.
For vehicles 9 miles per gallon or better the system will last 30,000 miles . The dispenser
and the dealers four month unconditional money back guarantees are supplied at no additional
costs.
This gas saving system was tested by the Concord School District on a fleet of 26 School busses
and cars. " We've been very pleased with the results," Francis D Curran , transportation manager
for the school district, said . " The fleet has averaged a 20% increase in fuel mileage, as well
as improvement in cold weather starting ." he said.
A Chevrolet station wagon in the fleet recorded a fuel mileage increase from 12 m.p.g. without
the platinum to 14.5 miles per gallon with the installation of this platinum system.
At this rate, over 30,000 mile period at a cost of $ 1.30 per gallon the investment in the unit
would be offset by a fuel savings of $ 560.00.
