Fuel Saving With ‘Low Gas’.


Fuel Saving With ‘Low Gas’.

For the last couple of months I’ve been doing a practical trial on a fuel saving product called ‘LowGas’, which to be honest, even though many of my colleagues in ‘Breeze’, and a local taxi company, had positive results, I was still very sceptical as to whether this product would produce the goods.

It seems, and I’m not going to be cautious about this because the practical facts do not lie, ‘LowGas’ does actually do what it says on the box.Lowgas

I have a 4½ year old Vectra I.9ltr Diesel. My mileage before fitting ‘LowGas’, from full to the fuel light flashing, was consistently around 530 miles. After fitting ‘LowGas’, there was no discernible improvement for two tank full’s, then the mileage range gradually began to creep up over the next 3 tank full’s, to just over 580 miles from full to fuel light flashing. As I use my car for the same journey every day, with hardly a deviation, i.e. To and from work, which is a good mixture of town and country driving, I can definitely say that there is an improvement of around 50 miles per tank full. This is too large an improvement to put it down to varying factors. So, with the price of fuel here in the U.K., and with the monthly mileage I cover, and once the ‘LowGas’ device came up to speed, I had a return on my investment inside a month. I don’t know why the device takes a while to come into full effect, but that seems to be pretty standard.

‘LowGas’ is remarkably easy to fit. It consists of a series of magnets inside a heat resistant sheath, which is wrapped around the fuel line, and held in place by a couple of tie wraps. That’s it.

‘LowGas’ costs £15 here in the U.K., which is £25 cheaper and much more compact than its nearest rival, and comes with a 60 day money back guarantee.

To sum up, ‘LowGas’ does produce the goods, is extremely easy to fit, is cheap, and is not intrusive to the engine. Fifty miles per tank full is not a massive saving, but it is a saving that cannot be ignored. Of course, the saving will vary from car to car, but talking to other ‘LowGas’ users, 30 to 50 miles seems to be about the norm. The local taxi company I mentioned, has a fuel saving of 50 miles per tank on all of its cars, which really speaks for itself.

I’m not affiliated to ‘LowGas’, but that doesn’t stop me from extolling its virtues. Every fuel saving device that does actually save fuel and by that token, eases the strain on our environment, must have an airing.
