STATE OF MINNESOTA

COUNTY OF ANOKA
 
 
I, Phillip J. Ratte, being first duly sworn, do hereby depose and say:
 
1.  I am of legal age and make this affidavit of my personal knowledge.
 
2.  I am a retired Mechanical Engineer (BME U of MN 1961) who practiced as a Professional Engineer in the State of Minnesota for 27 years.  I have tested over 100 fuel saving devices, magnets, and additives since 1979.  I appeared as an expert witness on fuel saving devices in a criminal trial in Missouri in 1992.
 
3.  I personally designed and conducted a study to determine the effect of ME2, a fuel saving additive, on automotive fuel economy.  The testing was conducted from March 14 to April 16, 2007.  The test vehicle was a 1999 Honda Accord that has a 2.2 liter 4 cylinder engine with 211,000 miles on the odometer.  This vehicle was frequently used to test various fuel saving products so there were no carbon deposits in the upper cylinders.  This makes the results of this testing quite conservative as most of the benefit from fuel saving products comes from removing carbon deposits from the upper cylinders that increase the compression ratio above the ideal compression ratio of the vehicle when it was new thus reducing both performance and fuel efficiency.
 
4.  The results of the study show:
 
     a.  The use of ME2 increased fuel efficiency in this Honda Accord by 16.4% from 29.7 to 34.6 mpg at 70 mph.
 
     b.  The use of ME2 increased fuel efficiency in this Honda Accord by 21.1% from 33.1 to 40.1 mpg at 60 mph.
 
     c.  The use of ME2 increased fuel efficiency in this Honda Accord by 21.8% from 35.0 to 42.6 mpg at 50 mph.
 
5.   My review of testing done by the California EPA certified lab, ATDS, Automotive Testing and Development Services Inc., on two 2007 Ford Taurus V6 vehicles with 5,000 miles and the results of my own  testing of a 1999 Honda Accord provide the basis for my Professional Opinion of the fuel saving additive ME2. 
 
It is my Professional Opinion that ME2 Fuel Additive is an outstanding fuel saving product that provides fuel efficiency increases in gasoline
powered vehicles well in excess of the 6% increase that the EPA designates as a "substantial" fuel saving result.  ME2 has outperformed all of the over 100 different fuel saving devices, magnets, and additives that I have tested since 1979. These results are so important that I have become a distributor for EYI, the company that sells ME2.
