Fill-up Pill To Offer Drivers Relief
(FiniteTimes.com) – Delores Campion remembers when a trip to the local gas station meant a fill-up, a fistful of tabloids and a generous bulky roll stuffed with Fill-Up Fred’s famous tuna salad. These days with the price of gas so high, she’s lucky to drive away with half a tank, a Star and a mere longing for the fishy treat her tongue can no longer afford.
“The price keeps going up and there’s nothing you can do,” Delores said from her Huntsville, Pennsylvania home. “It’s so rural here, you have to drive for everything, and that takes gas. They really kind of got you by the ball joint, if you know what I mean.”
Relief may be on the way for Delores and millions like her who are suffering from the recent record high price of gasoline. An energies engineering graduate student from the Oregon Technical Institute in Eugene has delivered a gasoline additive that he claims can cut gas use in half. Terry Creosote claims the additive, which he calls GasGenie, is all-natural, easy to use and should help to prolong the life of the entire vehicle’s exhaust tract.
“GasGenie is an herb-based pill that you add to the tank, preferably with every fill-up,” Creosote said. “Alternately, we now also offer a tailpipe delivery system, or automotive suppository applicator, if you wish.
“GasGenie works to cut down on acidic elements within the gasoline, allowing it to burn cleaner and produce more energy. Because the engine runs cleaner, it will help to clean out the entire exhaust system and cut back on excessive exhaust and so-called ‘trapped exhaust’.
“One big plus we’ve noticed is a sharp reduction on back-firing,” Creosote pointed out. “Those who find themselves constantly embarrassed by unintentional backfiring while trapped in line waiting for, say, a stop light, will love this product.”
While GasGenie is currently only available over the Internet at several fine automotive supply sites such as mycherrychevette.com (link?), Creosote and his distributor, SheetRustle Industries, hope to make it available over-the-counter at a number of service station chains by years’ end.
