Americans guzzle 65 billion gallons of fuel a year and lately we have been paying a pretty penny at the pump. NewsChannel 4 has done reports in the past on how to get the most out of your gas. Now we introduce you to a new way to save on those gasoline dollars.

yea..havent we been cryo treating some engine parts for a while now?......seems to be a fairly well trained cryogenist. he can freeze and reasemble the engine..seems coool..i wonder how much it costs to dissasemble the whole h22 and have each part cryo froze..LMAO we should all invest in one of those machines.
BTW: from the inital link i thought people were freezing gas when the price dips....then thawing it and using it in their cars..LMAOLast edited by clarksterdotcom; 06-03-2005, 01:48 AM.

Okay, that article didn't explain how chemically altering the makeup of the metal in the engine would give you better gas mileage, and I don't know why it would.
As far as making things last longer, they will, if you treat them carefully. But if you put too much pressure on cryo'd parts they will snap instead of bending or warping. Both are bad, but one can send a lot more parts flying through your firewall.-Jay

its a pretty good thought, but its gonna be expensive upfront, i def. know that. Eventually that is where we all need to be, either using that method or another user friendly environmentally safe method for a type of 'gas' that powers our transportation. Within our life time we will see the biggest battle and surge for fossil fuels, and sadly we may lose that battle very quickly.
On another note, gas has been really cheap around Vermont. Mobil is only charging 2.05 for regular, and a near by gas station is charging 1.99 full serve. So for now im not breaking the bank too bad.Audi A4 2.8 Quattro Sport
