How many of you remember when these were being pushed as the latest thing? Never got one myself as I thought they were rediculous! Made about as much sense to me as the clowns taping cow magnets on their fuel lines in the 1970's.

I vaguely remember that, didn't use it. That's one of the "sucker born every minute" things.

Or that tornado device that was supposed to add turbo or some crap like that.

I saw one of those on a TV, Garage Squad or something like that. It was on a Datsun 240Z or such. They were trying to get it running, and found one those in place of the oil filter. I had never heard of one of those before that.

Don't give up. Infrared glasses should do it for you! Not the same clarity, but better results because the only thing you will see with X-ray glasses are the bones. With infrared glasses you can see the "hot" spots!

I saw the same episode, never heard of such a thing! Sounded like it was worth some money today

My buddy put one on his car when they first came out. TV ad showed oil change after 2k miles. Oil was golden amber just like when it was first added. Buddy was hooked on it after seeing that! It was never like that for him.
