Not sure.
Instructions say to,
"locate a 3/8" ID vacuum line originating at throttle plate,
either the PCV or emmisions evaporative canister vacuum line."

The way it is advertised, yes it does.
I thought what the heck.
Even if it does half of what it says it will, it will have paid off in one month.

Burns 90 combustion rate. More fuel burning to produce power so less fuel needed and less rear end emissions.

In theory, so they say.

A few dollars I figure i'll bite and see what happens.

Have a merry christmas and safe travels in 08.
and thanks for the help

Fitch Fuel Catalyst. Suppose to work for a period of time with gains for a couple of MPGs at best. Is it worth, probably not. But its been proven to work.

I agree that seems like a scam.

But for future reference your best bet for a vaccume source on this car is to just tap your own fitting into the manifold.
