    Lightbulb Fuel Consumption

    Has anybody had any success with "Hilclone" products in their vehicles to improve fuel consumption?

    I put one into a 2000 V6 Rodeo and instanly took my average distance travelled per tank of fuel from around 220 km to just over 300 km (around town job to job.)

    I looked at them for years and never believed the hype. I also added a reccomended K & N High air flow air filter (suppose to last a million miles.)

    I reckon it will save me around $600 a year in fuel at least. I just need one for the Toro.

    Default Hi Clone

    www.hicloneqld.com/hiclone.htm

    Around $180 for the hi clone insert and same again for the filter total was about $360.00 (sounds a lot) but for around 10-20% decrease in vehicle fuel usage. If you use that much fuel YOU will notice a decrease.

    You have to disconnect your battery if fuel injected to reset the engine management computer.

    thanks Rod something new to think about. I use lucas in fuel in all equipment with good benifits, results no plugs fowling etc.
    So this looks like a centre plug in filter on this one you have
    Have you had results for the $540.00 ? youve spent.
    Sad thing if I convert my diesel to it i wont make as sell every 2 years. Good to hear of new products out there, Im waiting for someone to invent a vechile run on air lol.

    Total investment was around $360.00.

    Simply it reduced my vehicle petrol costs only by 10-20% so somewhere around the $15-20 a week best calculation.
