Improved power, fuel saving and better for the environment.
The Ecoflow Motoflow magnetic fuel saver is designed to condition the fuel prior to combustion to increase power output, save fuel, and reduce emissions.
The combustion process of fuel produces energy (heat & power), hydrocarbons (the unburned and waste fuel) and pollutant gases. Factors affecting the efficiency of combustion, and therefore the output of the engine or apparatus being fuelled, include the quality of the fuel, the quality of the air and the ratio of fuel to air.
Has anyone tried motoflow?

Thanks for sharing

so if you reverse the magnets (50/50 chance you'd get it right) you'd effectively clog your fuel line with massive strings of molecules... this can be applied both ways, snake oil and water don't mix!

snake oil!

Definitely snake oil... Wonder if a carny from the 1880's left a wagon load of "healing magnets" that were put back into service by a living descendant. (LOL)
Realistically, we smart drivers are open to debate over fuel saving gadgets. My experiences are showing the wide range of fuel consumption that the smart may deliver. The Aussie / Euro drivers handbook differs from the US one. A complete re-write for the US, not just an edit. In the Aussie one it does not recommend warming the engine up before driving away because it wastes fuel. It recommends putting the transmission in N and turning the engine off when stopping for more than 10 seconds.... and so on. I'm getting between 36 and 46 US mpg depending less upon my driving habits than the traffic I get stopped in. I am not turning the engine off at the lights because that's not good for the turbo.
One tip in the Aussie manual is they say do not put the engine into N and coast to a stop because that uses more fuel. Reason being: the ECU detects the overrun and shuts off the fuel supply if the engine is in gear. It will not do that if out of gear. The ScanGauge shows this closure when coasting to a stop in gear.
We could probably start a driving tips thread on how to save fuel and also save wear and tear on the car... ?

Save your money~!
If you think the magnets will really help you out, visit your local farm supply store and ask for two "cow" magnets. Strap them onto your fuel line with a couple of tie-wraps - and Bob's your uncle. . .
(Cow magnets, for the uninformed, are stuffed down cows and passed to help them remove any bits of fencing or metal they might ingest whilst dining upon the pasture greens.)

This is not how a Otto cycle automotive engine works.
There is something called the stoichiometric mixture which is a guideline which all the engine management systems including the mass airflow sensor, oxygen sensor and the anti-knock sensor together with the engine management computer use to try to create the best fuel mixture for the current engine load in real time.
When increasing speed, the mixture changes a bit taking the load into consideration and the spark timing and even valve timing is changed.
The oxygen sensor looks at the results in the engine exhaust and makes adjustments to the engine parameters at up to hundreds of times each minute.
This is such a complex system and has so many features to try to get the engine to run at peak efficiency and power under all conditions that if a magnet would just improve these results 1% ALL AUTOMOTIVE COMPANIES WOULD BE USING THEM.
Certain car companies would have been secretly installing them disguised as brackets to the fuel lines or something in the fuel pump but guess what. This doesn't work. It is not science.
And if you think about all this logically, Even if a magnet in the fuel system did something to the fuel before it got near the engine, the fuel injectors which are the final part in the fuel delivery system to the cylinders of your engine, have ELECTROMAGNETS in them which are very powerful and would disrupt any good that the so called fuel magnets did because the magnets in the injectors are so powerful in comparison.
No, there are no 100 mile per gallon carbs or water run engines.... this all does not work.
And anything you do to try to tamper with the fuel in a car like add ethanol, etc, will also effect engine power (ethanol has one half the power of gasoline per unit volume)
So the short answer is Sorry.
It just does not work.
If you still want to try it, just for fun, get a friend to help you do a double blind test where he put the magnets on one week and removes them from the car without you knowing when they are on or off the car and look at your results.

I'm going to mount a pole to my roof and hang a ten pound magnet out in front of my windshield. This will cause the car to move forward without using gasoline at all. Then I am going to pour metal shavings into my gas tank and mount a big magnet next to my injector pump. This will allow me to disconnect the pump and save big on parasitic drag from pumping fuel. Next I will mount a big magnet to the front bumper and another big magnet to the rear bumper to repel it. This will push the car faster down the highway. Once I'm sure this works, I'm going to take out the fuel tank and engine to save weight. This will help the car climb hills better. A bonus is that I will be able to follow 5000 pound Detroit barges and they will pull me along with invisible force. Sounds good to me.
