Actually, he is using a generic RF Choke that you can buy for pennies from most electronics places. That part is designed to be installed on electronic cables to supress induced RF noise. Apparently it saves gas too!

And yeah, the zip tie is a classy touch.

It's simply amazing to me how little some people know about cars, especially how easily they can be suckered into buying fuel saving devices like the one above.

It sickens me. The guy is getting tons of new positive feedback every day, for ripping people off!

Thats the Best Advise Ive read soo far.
My view is money comes and goes. Whether i spend it on this or that, its going to come back. i have no family or anything big so I'm in a position where i can put money aside for gas and still be iight. To each is there own i guess.
