I have got the Fitch Fuel System installed in my VT Commodore & 318I BMW, it
has been 3 weeks and I am saving $$$, the performance of my cars has been greatly improved, cars run smoothly, I used to use premium unleaded in my BMW but now I only use normal unleaded fuel, this is a saving of atleast 10c a litre. I am glad I was indroduced to the Fitch environment safe fuel system. I have no hesitation in recommending it to all.

"Fitch environment safe fuel system" its certainly got a ring to it.
There seems to be a few non-members who only in the last few days have plugging these devices. How long have they been around? I seem to recall seeing ads for them a year or so ago. You say savings of at least 10c per litre- you need to shop at different servos mate. Its 6-8c max a litre difference everywhere that I remember.

Have you actually measured the improvement in kms per tank? Going by their website it seems they are targeted more towards older cars running low octane fuel, with the intent of lowering emissions.

Where did you mount your unit? How much did it set you back? the $500+ price is putting me off until I hear more good stories. Want to trade one for a hyclone?

Ben,

Ben, I was generalising on the amount, I don't take it the the actual cent, 6-8c, what is the difference in saying 10c, the fact is I am not using premium unleaded fuel, I save the 6-8c, plus 2c for the fuel
economy saving that makes 10c, is that OK. Why would they taget older cars? I am planing to get the NEW 320 series BMW next month, and I assure you I will be putting the system in.

Where I mounted the system?, well I don't touch vehicles, the Fitch specialist did it, and yes it was $480, I don't look at that figure, it's the long run I am looking at, plus saving the environment.

If you are interested call... 1800 444 409, thats how I got to know the system. Plus, my brother is the boss at a mechaical W/s and he suggested it as well.

Talking to the specialist who installed the system in my vehicles, he said it is good for 4WD's. Call 1800 444 409, for further info, as I am not a nechanic.

Dragan, You might like to if you can confirm that you have no association with the Fitch product. This smacks of a free ad............

Hey Dragan
How's the Terrano going?
Did you get your problems sorted.
My intercooler goes on in a couple of weeks ($180) and then I'll get the boost upped and the engine retuned. Looking forward to it.
I thought I'd give one of those fuel catalyst things a go a couple of years ago and, to be honest, I haven't noticed anything significant. On the other hand one of my students fitted one on his HQ Holden wagon just before I did and after a couple of tankfuls he was able to run on unleaded rather than the old leaded super. That was when super was still around of course. His experience was what convinced me but I'm not sure it did anything for my diesel.
Cheers
Oskar

Why the hell would anyone that doesn't own a 4x4, and doesn't even know what a terrano is, post an add like that on a dedicated 4x4 ( in most cases, no offence iMusty ) forum? Mate, take your dunnydore and that other new THING with your self financial benifitting advertising crap to a forum that is read by poeple that were born yesterday where you might have a slim chance of being believed, oh, and take all your "silly fuel system" mates that have tried the same thing here, with you.
Am in total agreement with scubaroo, get rid of it, and any future ones also!

Avago............come to think of it, don't!

Pezza,

Dose that stand for bleep off.... if it doesn't well you can actually do that, try the Fitch system if you want ... then again ..... bleep off.... who needs
4 wd drivers like you.... if I don't know what a terrano is, what does that matter in life.... do you know what a pitcka is???? no you don't.... so there are things you don't know and I don't know, I have no interests in 4WD, and I am not going to ever want to know about 4WD, especially if they are blokes like you.

I thought this was a forum to show people what out there in the market, if I knew I had to deal with crap, I would have just emailed you!!!!!

I won't be drawn into a slanging match, though I do notice that for someone who is suppose to be intelligent enough to supposedly own and operate 2 companies, one of which is allegedly a printing company, and new beemers, that your spelling, grammar, PR skills and above all your arrogant attitude in all your above replies leave a lot to be desired, as well as a lot of holes in your 'story'.
I stand by ny previous comments.

Dragan

You don't own a 4WD and have no interest in one so why are you on this forum?

Oh, and BTW, I had a dunnydore once and now have a terrano, and am much better off.

He stuffed it up by saying running the fitch allowed him to use normal unleaded. Premium unleaded allows the knock sensors to run a more advanced timing because of the higher octane this gives more more power and economy. The fitch has never claimed to raise the octane just save fuel looks alot like spam to me

May be Dragan in his investigations did not see that for the Fitch to be a useful working catalyst, it would have as one of the outcomes of modifying petrol the creation of a rise in the octane level of that petrol. And the cetane level if the Fitch was used with diesel. If these changes have been observed, documented and reported on by a number of independent laboratories then we would be moving ahead in reaching some understanding of at least one of the reasons why Dragan had success with his BMW petrol engine on normal unleaded petrol after having the Fitch installed. Is it not true that as there are a number of petrol 4x4s still being used and the owners may just like to know what is part of the real mechanism that enables Fitch to do something beneficial to the efficiency of petrol engines and out of curiosity diesel?
