Miracle fuel additives that promise more kilometres per litre, cleaner engines and less pollution are as old as fuel itself. Such claims are often vague and rarely proven. But now a British firm says it has developed an additive that makes diesel burn more efficiently, producing fuel savings of 10 per cent.

Torquecars exposes the myths around expensive high octane fuel. Does it give better economy? Is it more powerful? Is it suitable for all engines? A very informative read that the marketing men at fuel companies would not want you to read.

Perchlorate, a chemical used in rocket fuel, is turning up in the nation's food - in vegetables like lettuce and spinach - and water supply. A study from the Centers for Disease Control last year tested almost 3,000 people who are representative of the U.S. population. They found perchlorate in every single person.

The average fuel efficiency of U.S. cars and trucks sold in the 2006 model year showed no improvement from the year before at 25.4 miles per gallon, as increased sales of fuel-thirsty cars offset slightly more efficient trucks, according to federal data.

Whether you want to pump less jack out of your bank account every time you fill up your tank or pump less CO2 into the atmosphere every time you drive, you have plenty of reasons to improve fuel economy. Of course, you can put yourself on the waiting list for a hybrid-clearly, the most fuel-efficient technology available nowadays.
