A friend reccomended Berryman's B-12 gas additive.
Says it's $2.97 at Walmart. Found it at Walmart. top
shelf, and this store had only two left, so it took a
while to find it. A couple days ago, I put in one can
of that B-12 fluid. I'd checked my mileage at 15.2 on
the last tank. This next fill up came up 16.3 MPG. I
don't think I changed my driving style, and the weather
is much the same. So, I'm figure that fluid did some
good.

It may work for you, also.

Hmm,
Interesting, wonder what is in it. Tempted to try but I don't want to
jeopardize warranty on my brand new Acura MDX.(less than 2 months)


The gas mileage on my 1997 Nissan 4x4 pickup 2.4 liter 4 cyl runs
between 17.6 and 18.7 MPG without adding any additives. This is mostly
short hops to the store.
A 1.1 MPG increase after adding an additive would be no proof that it
helped. Now, if my mileage was significantly more, for example 3 or more
GPM, then I could claim a benefit.
