I found them on line…plan to order.
I will hire it installed
Is it a major job?
Thank you ,

I wouldn’t buy one Lola-I know the designer

Sward,
Thank you…What does that mean that you know the designer?
Is it a good device? How will I get one?

Hi Lola, Yes you can just drop a magnet in the fuel and it will do
just as much good. That is nothing John JonesF33 Cat ketch1982.

I don’t think it works and is all “smoke and mirrors”. I can’t say what I know.

I’ve got half a dozen patents on industrial magnetic devices,
but as far as I know the jury is still out as regards magnets
and fuel…Nobody has been able to prove any advantage by
putting a magnet into or near the fuel. Then again, nobody has
advanced a disadvantage either. I would be willing do the
magnetic analysis on such a device if someone will furnish it.

“A rational explanation for the results observed in the use of ALGAE-X
fuel treatment devices, both in
terms of the increased filterability and in more efficient fuel
utilization is that magnetic field changes the
electron spins in some, perhaps not very many but enough, of the
covalent bonds in the hydrocarbons.”
Quoted from the Algae x site.

My question is: even if the magnet did succeed in changing the electron spin of
the covalent bonds in some of the hydrocarbons, how would that increase
filterability and fuel utilization?

Hi Steve,First, I have never been convinced even in the slightest that Algae x is anything other than snake oil. Just my opinion. I simply copied and pasted a summation from their web site. The short talking paper it was attached to was by some kind of scientist type but was completely anecdotal. Not a single reference to any kind of actual laboratory study. A science paper without math?

Near as I can figure from their website, Algae-X is a company that provides fairly sophisticated fuel polishing products and services which seem to have real value - particularly if combined with scrubbing the tank. But then they also market a magnetic device to go in the line which does smell strongly of snake oil. It’s a puzzler.

That pretty much sums it up Rog. It’s like “one of these things doesn’t belong with the others”. The magnetic device get’s points it does not deserve when a system gets an upgrade in the filtering department. I’ve never heard of anyone simply installing a magnet and getting a silver bullet effect.

Thorough cleaning of the fuel tank, of course.
Extensive filtration of fuel, definitely.
Prevention of algal growth in fuel, absolutely.
Changing of fuel lines and filter systems, certainly.
Do all or most of those things and your engine should have no trouble with its
fuel.
Realignment of electron spin in fuel, I don’t think so.
They’d have to prove that it works for me to believe it.

I been reading this thread and have not said anything yet due to my fragile mental condition {:>) but I have ONE! The prior owner loved all the little bells and whistles and he purchased and installed one. Not knowing anything about it I emailed the vender and asked them if I had to do special as far as maintenance, like take it off and dump all the trapped positively charged molecules etc. The response was NO you dont have to do anything its maintenance free. So there it sits inline after the fuel filter, a nice looking shiny alumimun cylinder. The shine alone makes me feel good!Bob On Sun, Nov 30, 2008 at 5:21 PM, ron barr wrote:From my knowledge this is a wonderful con, take a look behind the demo unit next time you see them at a boat show!
