magnets on fuel line

I think that FSM has touched Jimmy Buffett and all Parrotheads with His Noodly Appendage. Why else do they wear so much Pirate stuff?

Hmm, maybe. My 'fridge is covered in magnets, and does not use any petrol at all!

Have you noticed some additional hp? :)

Huh? I am not a physicist, but as far as I know, fuel, being a liquid, cannot be magnetized.

And air neither.

And vice-versa neither.

They will. The chamber is sealed. No way for either one of them to get out. Even if you could magnetize them, they could not get out.

Certainly, if the fuel or the oxygen could escape through the solid metal cylinder walls, the burn would be less efficient.

Never have seen fuel or air going through solid steel myself. :)

There may be the reason for your increase in mpg. Hotter air has less oxygen, so takes less fuel to burn.

Absolutely. And so it does without magnets. Octane is a measure of resistance to knock, *not* how much energy is produced by burning the fuel.

Wouldn't the fuel stick to the fuel lines if you could magnetize it? :)

If you stay longer in 3th, you get more hp.

I would have the radiator flushed and get rid of the license plate if possible. Some people have wrapped them around the lower lip. Or maybe you could suspend it at a higher position on the bracket using your magnets. :)
