Platinum injection????? Anyone have some insite?

I just heard about something called platinum injection. I have never heard of this, but it is supposed to have some effect on how fuel is burnt. Does anyone know about this, or how it will effect a rotary engine. Here is a web site explaining something about what it is.

Horseshit. If there was any platinum to speak of in the "concentrate" it would cost a small fortune. Platinum costs more per ounce than gold !!!

Add this to the pile of other crap that won't work or has no scientific merit. "Sucks platinum bubbles into your engine" my ***. Hell, I'd try to suck Napalm bubbles into an engine before I'd try to suck some weak *** mineral water.

Remember, erections lasting more than 4 hours, while rare, require immediate medical attention. Medical attention ? Hell, that happens, I'm gone to Vegas for the weekend ! Might make a movie or twelve.

More comments? Anyone have any sort of break down of why or why this will do something or nothing, chemically?

lol...sorry dude. I was being silly....

But I'm really not sure how to resolve your question. Are you running the NGK series spark plugs though? Those should be the best running plugs for any sport compact, I'd assume.

How did you hear about this fine product, and where did you get the web site's URL from? Did your mechanic recommend it, did you see it on a late night TV infomercial, or what?

Seems like a "snake oil" panacea to me.

I heard of this product through my friend. He works with someone who does alot of ice racing and road racing. He does't have a rotary, which I am not sure if it makes it a difference or not, but he races 1 generation honda civics with prelude engines wedged into them. He has been using this product apparently for 2 years now and swears by it. A couple of his co-workers decided to try it out and apparently they are quite impressed. And the friend of mine who told me about it says he wants to get a one of these systems for his car.......

As for where the link came from, I just searched google, and thats all I could find.

Ok.. so it seems that this is a load of crap then? Thats too bad. As far as that legal mumbo-jumbo that was posted in the last thread, don't most companies have a diclaimer simalar to that for their products so they are not liable in any way at all for whatever product they sell? I seem to recal getting a DC sports header for my old prelude at one time and getting a simalar diclaimer say that if this header is installed and something goes wrong, its not DC sports fault....

If I had the extra cash I would try it out for ***** and giggles.....

Ok, so I'll sell you a gallon of stuff that will do the same thing ( guaranteed ). It's a special blend that's been in the family for hours.
