Subject: Official Information request - Vehicle fuel additive claims by
Oil Companies
 
Dear Commerce Commission,
 
Has or does the commerce commission looked into the claims made by fuel
companies that sell petrol and diesel with ""cleaning additives" that
"improve fuel economy"" to prove or disprove that they are a) Being added
to fuels at all, and b) whether the claims by some fuel companies around
cleaning engines, fuel injectors and driving cars further with better
mileage have any truth to them or are misleading.
 
If the commerce commission has or does investigate these claims made by
oil companies could you release your findings even if the fuel companies
brands have to be redacted due commercial sensitivities.
 
Yours faithfully,
 
Mike Hunua
