All the devices that work have been bought up by the oil companies so we won't get the mileage. The ones that are left are sold by the snake oil companies(in other words they don't work) Without the proper mixture you will either foul the plugs or burn the valves from to rich or too lean. Fuel injection is the best followed by a properly jetted carb. Another thing we have to deal with is the ethanol, it makes our older cars run hotter, the new cars love it. This is just my two cents worth on the Fuel injection / carb problem.
