Hi John,
I realise that the ASA has little real power - this is borne out by
one company (Broquet) in particular STILL making the same claims despite at
least 2 adjudications aginst them. It's almost worth using a spare engine
with a rebuilt (no lead-memory) head and one of these devices just to prove
a point - except I've got better things to do!

My wife's take on this is why don't the motor manufacturers fit them if they
really work? It would be a cheaper solution than fitting hardened valve
seats!
Cheers,
Bill.
