this is mine from a trip yesterday, up to and through central london, so not all motorway at all, this is with 2 strong magnets now on the fuel line and im increasing believing they actually do seem to do something.

Get out, by that mileage mines into the last quater in if not almost on the red.. Think I may well try the magnets to see if any change on mine then. Dont see how they can be that far apart on miles per tank, I would expect a bit of variance but thats a huge difference to mine.

How did the rest of the tank do? In all teh ZS's I've been in that halfway marks has never been right, although I've never emptied a tank completely. That's still some impressive mpg you get though, detials on these magnets! I suspect you just have a very strong car and a girly-weak right foot.

Google "magnets on fuel lines", draw your own conclusions.

I am sceptical about them but is it possible they would make a difference? I know wouldnt be that great but then I dont know the full workings of charge affects on fuel and so on. No matter how much I read these things I dont totally follow it.
Ive seen the advertised all over the place and was interested but unsure as had never known of someone using them.

Okay just found a page you must have read too and has what seems to be quite thorough tests done and as usual goes againt everything the manufacturers of these products want us to believe.
Still a bit unsure but its one of those things that will never know as wont possibly waste £30 on them when thats half my tank filled.
