Hello,

does anybody know where I can find the fuel pipe in a Ford focus Diesel?
I have to find it between tank and fuel pump.

Under the car there is more than one pipe: One thick to the right, a
smaller one left beside it and two small ones. Which of them is it?

Hoping for help

The thickest one. The slightly smaller one is the fuel return to the tank
and the two small ones are for the rear brakes.

If you cannot trace the lines back to the tank however then I would question
your skill in doing whatever job you intend.

Thank you very much for this information.

Now I know where to fit the "ecoflow" fuelsaver.

Most of us here would probably agree, you can put the "ecoflow" on any one
of the lines and get similar results.

Happy modeming,

That's right!
I would recommend to put the ecoxxx thing into the glove compartement. This
is much easier and has the same effect on fuel consumption :)

Let me try it, ok?

Sure.  No one is stopping you.

But let others voice their opinions, ok?

For what it's worth, I agree with TheSurgeon.

I found this on the web.

"The outstanding success of Ecoxxxx products when compared to other IMI
products is attributable to the unique Central Reverse Polarity
magnetic field designed and researched specially by Ecoxxxx. This
field, applied to the fuel, promotes superior conditioning through
increased electron agitation."

Central Reverse Polarity magnetic field.  Increase electron agitation.
Wow.

Don't let the fuel contaminate the spark plugs and short them out :)

>Central Reverse Polarity magnetic field.  Increase electron agitation.

The effects of 'Central Reverse Polarity' magnetism can be reversed by
hitting it hard with something heavy - such as a hammer or a piston - or
heating it up - in an engine cylinder..

Isn't the same thing sold under a different name for producing soft
water? ... and with a similar list of claims.

Yes it is but with the water it makes sense, with fuel it makes nonsense :)

Hello,

because you are joking about the eco-xxx thing:

Have you got any _experiences_ with it?

If so I would be very interested because I don't have. I did not find
any negative comments in the internet (okay, they want to sell it).

If not: Why are you so sure that it will not work? Because it must not?

Hi Manfred,
This topic is one of the hottest topics of our local newsgroups in my land.
I will try to explain my attitude:
In life we don't try everything to find out how it works. We have to learn
using books, magazines, internet, experience etc. Would you reply to someone
who says "I can produce gold using iron", "yes sure, we must try it and see,
we shouldn't make any negative comments on this matter without trying it
first"?
Current scientific data suggests that this is not possible.
Now, the ecoxxx thing is the same. Fuel is a mixture of aliphatic
hydrocarbons and hydrocarbons have NO magnetic properties. This is basic
chemistry knowledge. So what does it mean? It means, that aliphatic
hydrocarbons (that means "fuel") don't undergo any changes (chemical or
physical) in magnetic fields.
So???
As I said earlier. You cannot try out everything and see the results. You
must KNOW and DEDUCE or you must TRUST to people who do so.
That's it...
Regards...

If it worked Ford would fit it so that they could meet environmental
legislation world-wide.

The EPA has tested these (and many other aftermarket devices):

Hi
here in Germany many Institutions have tested it also.
No effect so far expect a little less money in the bag.
