If I fit one of the £25 multi spark ignition improvers, a £30 inline catalyst and the £20 new engine in a tin oil additive how long will it be before the huge increase in mpg means I get my £75 back and start running into profit?.

Maybe BP/Shell are major share holders so they won't allow vehicles to be that good.
