Ford Explorer Fuel Recommendations

Q. Dear Mr. Vincent: As an avid reader of your web site I must complement you on your work, very detail, very precise and informative. I wish to seek your help regarding a product that increases gas mileage up to 24%. The product is called Tornado Air Twister which is being sold at Pep Boys. My question to you is does it really work?

Ford Explorer Fuel Recommendations

My second question is I am an owner of a 1998 Ford Explorer with a V-6 engine, what is the best grade of gas I should use?

Thanking you in advance for any assistance given to me.

A. I did a Product Review of this system. You can read it here: TORNADO Air Management Systems

Use regular unleaded fuel, 87 Octane. Mid-grade and Premium fuels may increase the probability of carbon buildup, leading to a knock noise.
