(54) A system for reducing fuel consumption in combustion engines


(57) A system for reducing fuel consumption in combustion engines is described, which may be installed between the flange and the fuel filter, by means of which a reduction in the excess of pressure in the primary filter is achieved, which entails a consequent reduction of the amount of fuel going to the injection fuel pump. The system consists of three perforated plates for the passage of fuel, a pair of pistons provided for supplying pressure to the inside of the reducer system, a safety valve for moving the piston, and a spring for each piston, which keeps each one under tension and in its position. The system is applicable with diesel or "bunker" fuel. The fuel reduction achieved is within the range of 10 to 60% in comparison with current consumption.
