Jersey's H3 and the Tale of 25MPG

[TANDREW]

Just where do you buy this CA40G and is this what it's called?

[Desert Dan]

seems pretty expensive

One quart of CA40g is $32.50
One gallon of Ca40g is $110.00.

This is a fuel additive made by a company called CMH Industries. They originally forumlated it to work in tractors with diesels, but apparently they've found it works in any type of petroleum based fuel, and they are saying they guarantee an increase in fuel economy of 10%.

[RubHer Yellow Ducky]

Its only around $1.00 per 20 gal fillup...@$4.00 per gal thats $81 vs $80...

Has anyone else tried it yet ?

[Desert Dan]

It's worth a try. Where do you buy it? On TV

I would like to see longer distance test results. With short distances the calculations can be effected by changes in the ammount of gas used to refill and I am sure teh gas pumps and gas guages aren't 100% accurate.
Mayb use a GPS for distance measurement?

See the difference in just 0.3 gallons used...
73.3 miles divided by 3.3 gallons equals 22.21 mpg. or

73.3 miles divided by 3.0 gallons equals 24.43 mpg

I'll stick to the Vornado and fuel line magnets.

You get it online at ca40g.com It can be delivered or you could look and see if there is a local distributor near you.

I agree longer distance tests would be best, maybe I should just report my full round trip results instead?

Whaddya think?

Edit:
Next one way test is tomorrow morning. I'll post results, but it may be as late as midnight depending on when I get some down time at work.

[HummerHippy]

personally, I think you , Jersy, should keep testing and report back after 1000 miles or more. Or after 1 full year of using it.

Had a friend that loved marvel mystery oil. He used to blend that product. MMO looked like auto trans fluid into his gas at fill up. Claimed it lubed his cylinders and got him better mpg...

Never saw any real data on results...

This sounds interesting ca40g. I would be interested in long term study data.

If farmers use it thats usually a good testimony.

Farmers are always a tough sell.

I'm not sure I trust these short hop figures you are posting here brother.

What would be more meaningful in my opinion, are mpg averages per TANK.

At the moment, with an AirDoc CAI, PCM tune and running Swampers, I'm averaging 16 to 16.5 mpg per tank and I'm happy with that. However, if this product could add another 2 or 3 mpg and does not prove to be detrimental to the overall health and well being of my motor, I'd be very interested.

Sorry, just my skeptical nature coming out....

So...let's see some mpg per tank figures.....

G-man,

I'd like to help out by running my tank empty for you, but that's not how I drive. I'm not a sales person. I'm not 'out-for-profit'. I'm just sharing info. Let me state unequivocally that I'm not testing this product to see if it works. It works. Of that I have no doubt. I've used it for over a year. I'm just testing to see how well it works given my vehicle('06 H3), my driving habits(virtually no offroading), my lay of the land(mainly NJ highway). To that end, I'm happy to post what I achieve by using the product, for the purpose of satisfying other's curiosity and because I am legitimately impressed by it.

The raw data on this product is available on the ca40g website.
Anyone interested can check it out.

I stand by my personal results with the caviat that it's understood that these results are unique to me and my vehicle. Your results may vary. And like others, I too, am curious about what others would get so please, if you try it, post your results.

Thanks for understanding

Ok, this mornings trip in was interesting because I left a half hour later than usual. More traffic, but no traffic jams and I only touched my brakes a few times the whole way.

On my days off I racked up 154.8 miles. Some highway, some city, some beach.

My refill was 6.90 gallons @ $3.83 per gallon

My bill was $26.50

My Averaged MPG: 22.43mpg

This AM, having topped off with 6.9 gallons...and going to work...

My total travel mileage was 74.1 miles

My refill was 3.103 gallons @ $3.71 per gallon <-lowest price I've seen in months!

My bill was $11.54!

My Averaged MPG: 23.90 mpg

I'd say this is fairly consistant. Wouldn't you? The test continues tomorrow for my return trip. I'll probably post it the next day though.

See pics of my gas receipts...

Note: The top off receipt after I made the trip this AM was at a different station along the route to work and I stopped because I saw that price $3.71! Anyway its 10 blocks from work instead of 5. No biggie. Also, their CC machine only shows price paid at the pump not gallons, you should have seen the guys face when I asked for a receipt that showed the gallons/price numbers. Man was he mad as he handwrote the info on a receipt pad that hasnt been used since before they moved to North Bergen!
Anyway here they are; 2 from this mornings fill up before the trip, two from this morning after the trip to work. Hope you find the info useful!

I've have been using it for more than a year. It's my H3 that's new, not the product. In my minivans I always used it and it always delivered.

I've logged thousands of miles with it. I'm reporting now how well its improved the mileage in my H3.

I've used it, I'm using, I'll continue to use it, and I'll recommend it as well.

I'm glad to post the mileage for all to see; I hope all of you find the information useful.

Todays mileage was equally impressive, I'll post later when I can use my laptop.
