watch out for the random duty checks to see what fuel you are using. They are supposed to stepping up these checks.

Suppose to give you more power but you have to use it to cook yo food with first or heat it to a certain temperature then you pour it in to the car and whatever you used to cook it with makes your car smell like that food! oh better fuel consumption as well
