MILESPLUS fuel enhancer - legit?
May 25, 2007 - Random musings by Dana Childs, Cleantech Group
A company out of Illinois today announced a fuel additive that it claims can add up to 50 miles range to an average tank of gas.
MILESPLUS Petroleum Enhancer™ claims to be an organic surfactant/dispersant that has been "proven for 20 years in trucking and shipping industries."
It claims to improve vehicle performance by cleaning engine components and reducing fuel viscosity to improve fuel economy and enhance MPG.
"Consumers have reported up to 50 more miles per tank of fuel in cars, SUVs and diesel trucks and up to 100 more miles in RVs."
MILESPLUS claims to work with any grade of gasoline or diesel fuel, as well as ethanol blends. A single-dose application (less than one ounce) apparently treats up to 20 gallons of fuel and is only available over the Internet (red flag!) with ten bottles to a carton.
Snake oil? Or does this stuff really work?

Miles Plus
Submitted on May 29th, 2007 by InterestedReaderI've tried it. It works! And with gas prices in
IL, who wouldn't want to try it? I am in sales and I travel quite a bit. I called the owner of company to ask questions because I was skeptical myself. And what he said to me made sense. Consumer products are tough to distribute so they want to do everything the right way. They are taking everything in stages -- Beginning with consumer sales via the internet. (I'd rather buy it on line than have to go to WalMart or an Auto Zone.)
I did purchased the product. I put it in my tank, filled up with gas and received an additional 42 miles. And I have a big SUV. Instead of being skeptical... Give it a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
