the hd magnet got north/south 1 ler ..... can just attach it like this meh????? read from some site that it should put the south to fuel line only ...

i did put in my car ... seems working for esso, but not shell, dont know y...

 

[ksgoh]

work for esso, not shell.....this really curiuos.....FC high in shell?

 

[wonge]

fr my experience, YES...SHELL has high FC...castrol worse...my friends are complaining that as well...and probably SHELL has a very little effects on magnetic field...

but ESSO is working fine with/without the magnet...

FC:(normal drive,city+highway+magnet)

ESSO: RM50...410km
SHELL: RM50...370km

without magnet

ESSO: RM50...390km
SHELL: RM50...370km

 

[ksgoh]

[wonge]

B14(95)...not sure it is low in FC or not....

I am not sure about this.. but Nissan engines and Shell like not ngam like that one.

You try Caltex and petronas and see. Seems like these fuels worked the best for me. Better mileage and power too.

errr .... i opened up a HDD ... cannot find any magnet inside oso ??? got those electromagnet coils laa ... i can see they become magnet after electricity current passes thru it ... but without power they are just metal coils only ... mana itu magnet ?? i tried to detect the magnet using metal products for the magnet to stick on .. but nothing sticks worr ... hehehe ... how to find that magnet ?? or maybe those HDD i got dont have magnet one ???

 

[ksgoh]
