ECO Fuel Review
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Plugs into the standard OBD2 port — no tools or wiring required
- The brand states it makes no permanent ECU changes and can be reversed by unplugging it
- 60-day money-back guarantee
- Broad claimed compatibility with any OBD2 vehicle made since 1996
Cons
- OBD2 fuel-saving devices as a category are widely scrutinized because the OBD2 port is a diagnostic read/write interface, not a standard route for third-party fuel-injection tuning on most vehicles — treat the 35% figure skeptically
- No independent dyno or fuel-economy test data is published, only customer testimonials and one named engineer's quote
- 'Adapts to your driving habits in 150 miles' is a brand claim with no explanation of what the device is actually measuring or adjusting
Our Take on ECO Fuel
ECO Fuel is a plug-in OBD2 device the brand markets as improving fuel economy by up to 35% by 'enhancing' a vehicle's ECU, with a 60-day money-back guarantee and compatibility claimed for OBD2-equipped cars made since 1996.
