kerrynzl 3 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 I rang up AA and asked if they did a review on this and they said had not. Where did you get your information from? The was an article in the AA magazine about them [ approx ten years ago ] when fuelstar was all the rage. I know that letters were fired back and forth from the distributers of fuelstar at the time Hey try consumer magazine, see if they have done something Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kerrynzl 3 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Hey guy's I doing some R & D on a new Hi-tech "eagle" I'm thinking of bolting a row of "turbonaters" along the top of a rear spoiler. Aparently there are good gains to be made in aerodynamics [ that why F1 teams use wind tunnels ] Is there anyone out there that is interested in Funding a development programme? I'll need a few $$$ for designing [ on the back of a coaster over a few bourbons ] Huge potential market [ "heaps of suckers" ] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I spoke to consumer as well and they said they have not done anything on it either. I suggested they do and they said they'll look into it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kerrynzl 3 Report post Posted March 28, 2008 LOL! I spoke to consumer as well and they said they have not done anything on it either. I suggested they do and they said they'll look into it. Hey it was a long time ago, It could've been "wheels magazine" or an Aussie AA publication. I read it at the "MacLaren trust HQ years ago.[ then in Pakuranga ]Along with this, all these oil additives were also discussed. At the Time, the people involved were also developing a new engine for CCED [ continuous cycle engine developments ] so they were involved in a lot af controlled tests and reports using Auckland University's Facilities. Their conclusion was, you can only get so much energy out of a BTU, All they did was re-invent the crankshaft. If you could build a 100% thermally eficient engine to replace a modern 25mpg engine [ approx 30% efficient ] you have the potential to get 83mpg [ so all these conspiracy theories about a 200mpg carburettor, or cars running on water are just folklore ] nb:I said running on water not hydrogen If anyone desires they should do a controlled test back to back [ on a real dyno ] In the mean time, I'll develop my turbonator wing [ they spin at 60,000rpm as claimed] haha!

Mate, by pure chance a friend of mine has the wheels magazine that did the research on fuelstar back in 1997. I'm picking it up tonight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kerrynzl 3 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 Also try and get a Copy of the July 1997 issue of New Zealand Classic Car Magazine! There is an article in there " Fuelstar vs AA " Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
