Emissions Testing of City Vehicles with MPG-CAPS

Wichita, Kansas Nov. 17, 2006 - March 1, 2007
In Wichita, Kansas, the City organization responsible for servicing and maintaining over 200 Cityowned buildings is Building Services. A fleet of service vehicles is assigned to its staff. This fleet ranges from new vehicles to others that are several years old with considerable mileage, and a few that are up to 15 years old and in bad shape, but they are still in use.

On November 17, 2006, a number of Building Services’ vehicles were selected at random to undergo emission testing prior to using MPG-CAPS and again later after using the product in several tanks of gasoline. Drivers were told nothing except to put the tablets in their tank when they fill up.

The rationale was simple. If the tests show a significant reduction in carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons after using the MPG-CAPS, it will be obvious that the engine is running better and burning fuel more effeciently. If positive results are achieved, computer records of fill-ups and odometer readings will be researched to determine fuel mileage improvements.

Following the initial emissions testing, 9 “healthy” vehicles were selected for the MPG-CAPS test.

In addition, 1 “marginal condition” vehicle and 1 “junker” were included. Follow-up emission testing was done on March 1, 2007. The results are shown below.

NOTE: CO = Carbon Monoxide measured as a percent of total exhaust (%)

Measured CO must be below 1.5% to pass an emission test

HC = Unburned Hydrocarbons measured in parts per million (ppm)

This high mileage vehicle had HC levels in the 11/17/06 test considerably higher than the other “healthy” vehicles.

However, the MPG-CAPS returned it to very acceptable emission levels in the 3/01/07 test.

This was considered a “marginal condition” vehicle because of its high emissions levels in the 11/17/06 test and is
suspected of having mechanical problems of some sort. It will be sent to the shop for service.

This was a “junker” that had been retired and designated for the auction but was brought back into service to fill an unexpected need. Its emissions levels when tested on 11/17/06 were so bad that it fouled the emissions test equipment and considerable effort was required to clean the equipment and make it operational once again. This vehicle was included in the test just to see what would happen. The results were amazing. However, the vehicle is still out of compliance at idle, and it has been retired from service once again.

Hej
Kan vi inte bara lägga ned denna diskussion. :roll:
Alla får väl tro på vad de själva vill?
En del tror på UFO och andra på gud och en del blir lyckliga av motorlyckopiller.
Det här har inte kommit en centimeter närmare 'sanningen' sedan tråden startades.
Alla har vi väl en egen bild av 'sanningen'
Om MPBC är så fantastisk så kommer vi i sinom tid att få reda på det..var så säkra.
Just nu finns ingen anledning att vara försökskanin.

[Addekarlsson]

Som jag ser det, så är det helt frivilligt att titta och kommentera i tråden.

Mvh/ Adde

Hmmm, efter att ha tagit del av informationen hittills har min inställning ändrats från undvik till avvakta...
Kommer inte vara den förste som provar tabletten men antagligen inte den siste heller.

Trevlig läsning mina vänner. 8)
Det låter som ett trendigt ämne när priserna på drivmedel stiger och miljödebatten om växthuseffekten rullar i snart varje tv-sändning.
Jag ställer mig varken för eller emot MEN hoppas vi ser fler"lokalt" förankrade tester framåt.
Nä, nu åker jag o tankar 98 istället.... :lol:

[bdp003]

Yes!

Respons!

Jag har nu några i forumet som verkligen vill testa.
Lika spännande för mig som för er (säkert) vad blir deras resultat.

Dom får själva återkomma när dom har som jag hoppas (väl dokumenterade) resultat.

Mattias_F hade du tankat 95 ( 95 oktan ca 11:-/lit) + MPGCaps,
så hade du betalat "relativt pris"

8.50 = ÅTTA och FEMTIO!!!/liter
(istället för dom ca 11.50 jag gissar du nu betalade för 98:an)

Hundralappen gick IGEN direkt ner i oljebolagets ficka denna gången!

Alla inser väl nu vilka stora besparingar det handlar om för dig och mig som liten kund! 4 000 - 6 000:-/ÅR minst!

Mvh /B

Tyvärr fick oljebolaget 10:- och staten 90:- att gödsla nått ogräs med..

En rolig länk om bränslesparare http://www.bankrate.com/brink/news/auto ... 0613a1.asp

Amerikanska miljöskyddsmyndighetens (EPA) hemsida listar olika sorters bränslesparare de testat genom åren. Det finns som ni ser några som redan försökt sälja detta i olika skepnader "The Environmental Protection Agency has not tested MPG-Caps, but it has tested more than 100 other gadgets and additives that say they will save gas and has found they do not work."

Förresten Bengt, som historieintresserad hade jag tyckt det varit kul om du kunnat utveckla ditt resonemang om att djävulen himself låg bakom det andra världskriget
