I installed one on my 77 300d turbo and immediately saw a 50% increase in fuel mileage. The only drawback was that tap water was not quite as effective as expensive mineral waters so the final outcome was only a 25% increase in fuel economy. Unfortunately it increased the 'hydro'carbon output in my exhaust and I failed the emissions test. I don't know how to solve this problem.
