Check out this story on Fred Crane, the mastermind behind the mileage master from ABC News.
In Jacksonville, Fla., a 69-year-old inventor designed a tiny gadget he attaches to his engine to improve his mileage.
“I’ve been getting about 42 [miles per gallon] with this car. On a previous car I had it on, I got 60!” said Fred Crane.
He calls the device the Mileage Master. According to Crane, when you’re going more than 35 mph, you can just flip a switch to cut off fuel to half of the cylinders in your engine.
“I’d like the American public be able to save gas. That’s what I want. I don’t want the oil companies to buy it off from me. They’ll just throw it away,” said Crane.
With the Mileage Master, he claims someone who gets 20 mpg, spending $100 per month, could reduce that bill to as little as $35 a month.
