    Re: Uncommon Ways To Save Money On Gas

    Go with the octane rating specified in the owner's manual. That's what the engine was designed to burn.

      My car manual says that i can use regular gas, but when I do, I hear a pinging sound. I have switched to premium!

        I checked my manual and it says to use octane of 86 or higher. So that means mid-grade for me....which is what I have been using anyway. Thanks for the help!

          Am applying for the discover card which pays 5% cash back for gasoline purchases. Discover fine print says 5% cash back applies to establishments they classify as " gasoline stations". Are 7-11 type (convenience) stores considered gasoline stations for the 5% cash back?

            Wow, I thought there was only a couple of drops in that pump and not as much as half a cup. Great advice

              I did as you said and turned the nozzle upside down, but nothing came out. The bottom of the nozzle had little holes all around to drip everything out. Although I did go the other day and that nozzle didn't have the holes and yes the gas was still in there and dripping so I poured it back into my tank. Thanks

                water tosupplement the cars' gasoline consumption. Called a water fuel conversion kit, it is
                a simpleadd-on to your current car engine that uses your car battery to carry out an
                electrolysis on water to produce Hydroxy gas (HHO). This Hydroxy gas is used to supplement
                the burning ofgasoline in the car's engine.

                Hydrogen generator kit for car can be better than gasoline or oil additives to raise gas
                mileage. When you make or do it on your own, you can save money on gas but will save lots
                of dollars on the kit and reproduce the system for other automobiles on your own.

                saving money should be what everyonr thinks off and I have done this by using all ideas from

                my sites

                Hi guys, I recently visited your site.I'm doing a Chemistry project and was wondering if HHO is a viable source of energy? Does it waste more energy than it uses?
                Thanks.

                  I have been reading conflicting posts on this hydrogen generator kit - come claim it to be great gas saver (up to 60% gas savings), others call it a scam. Would appreciate it if you could indeed come forward to state your or someone's personal experiences.
