It looks like a house brick. What do you do with it, put it in the fuel tank? |

I can think of a lot of drivers would benefit from this not only would you save fuel you would cut down the risk of having an accident.Do you think if your car was fitted with this that you would get cheaper road tax and insurance.

So why would anybody purchase this? If I wanted to stop my throttle going down to far I'd put a bit of wood or something under it. Unfortunately I live in a rather hilly area where sometimes you need to push the throttle right down on a vehicle such as my fairway. Good luck with "your invention" anyway.

I hadn't thought of the problem with hills.Maybe on the production version I can tie a bit of string on it so you can pull it out for overtaking etc. |

And believe it or not there are similar devices sold for £25 or more on ebay. This one could get you into a lot of trouble under the trades description act. You clearly state that the central core is lead when in fact everyone else knows that it is in fact carbon and if placed in petrol there is a good chance that it could be absorbed into the fuel and thus increase the carbon immisions of the vehicle. |
