Abstract |
This document announces the conclusions of the EPA evaluation of the 'Platinum Gasaver' device under provisions of Section 511 of the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act. On February 1, 1981, the EPA received a request from Pegusus Enterprises for evaluation of a fuel saving device termed 'Platinum Gasaver'. This device is claimed '...to improve mileage at least 20% and to cut down on harmful emissions.' This device consists of a Gasaver instrument which is filled with 12 ounces of Gasaver solution. A line from the Gasaver instrument is connected to a vacuum line at the base of the carburetor. The Gasaver solution is bubbled at a slow rate into the engine. |
