Its for the KJ listed price at $245 + shipping. Your suposed to get anywhere from 10%-20% increase in fuel economy. Anyone know about this product or if its worth it? I saw it in my Jan/Feb edition of JP Magazine on page 11.

I think you would be better spending the money on something else for your rig.Did you investigate any of the claims of what Fitch has done in the past?

P.S. That snake oil is pretty slippery.

My vote is for major "Snake oil". I am often reminded of the old adage "If its to good to be true, it probably is".

I'm with uvalax236 on this one, buy something for your rig. If you want to save fuel you can do it other ways as well. Take less trips, try to walk more often or my favorite one, ride a motorcycle.

JP Mag (rag) has only bashed the KJ from day one.....cancell your subscription !

I've got a great deal for you....send me only 1/2 the price and IMAGINE that your getting better gas milage ...what a deal !!!!


no...seriously, I just read an article in consumer reports about a number of different "devices" that made lots of claims and delivered no good results. Some of them actually decreased mileage and performance!


It might be better to buy a nice heavy skid or roof rack and decrease your mpg...but enhance your Jeep. You could get a really nice 2 meter Ham Radio for that....or maybe a set of lights or a Power Tank .......or who knows !

Good luck though... 8)


ps.....cancel your subscription to that KJ hating rag. (just my 2 cents)

kind like that tornado fuel saver they sell at napa and in stores. I tried it, and lost 2 mpg!!! Sent it back quick. only way it would work is if it was right over each combustion chamber.
