So, today I went out to do a check engine light scan for a customer. I noticed he had one of those scam “OBD eco fuel saver” thingies in there.
It’s none of my business so I simply took it out, did the code scan, and put it back in. As I was putting it back in he was like “oh, by the way, that thing is great, I get 36mpg now”
Part of me just wanted to tell him how he got ripped off and that the stupid thing is nothing more than a circuit to light up the LED on the device but I just smiled and said “that’s interesting” and moved on.
But yeah, I’ve just seen these online and the various different ones made fun of and disassembled in YouTube videos but I never thought I’d actually see one in real life.
Has anyone else here actually seen one in a friends, family, or client car? And did you say something?
