I really don't care what you kids believe or not believe, makes no difference to me at all. Boncho has been following me around for months attempting to discredit my HHO reactor setup. Blast away! Americans will try anything when the price gets too high.

I will not argue with you, can I say low 9 seconds in a quarter mile? Can I say front wheels a foot off the ground in first?

Yes it would need to be under pressure so that it delivers more fumes when needed I guess...

Well im not convienced because its not true, claiming those cars go that kind of mileage from the factory, or even highly modified is either a lie you've convienced yourself is true, or you have a lot of false memories of stuff that never happened. More simply put is that your totally wrong and your providing untrue statements as fact to back up your claims about gas mileage back then.
and as for the color of fuel
It was Red because it was most likely either high sulfer or Tax exempt/limited tax fuel which is where im sure your confusing what the color of gas was back then...it sure as hell wasn't red because it was a Special super fuel...it was just the dye they added to it so that it could be identified. so that blows that theroy outta the water.
low-tax fuels, high-sulfur fuels Solvent Red 26, Solvent Red 164
Worldwide Aviation gasoline 80/87 red dye
Aviation gasoline 82UL purple dye
Aviation gasoline 100LL blue dye
Aviation gasoline 100/130 green dye
And lastly to top the icing on the cake..."we are all being controlled by electronic MIND CONTROL" and thats why your right and we are all idiots for doubting you..wow dude you need to seek some help....SERIOUSLY SEEK HELPedit on 30-1-2012 by solids0be because: (no reason given)
Dude - lighten up... What do you do all day? Follow this guy around and pillory him every time you get a chance. You can disagree without being a jerk. I haven't seen him retaliate in any way, shape, or form so I fail to see why you persist with this.
BTW: I'm not taking a position on whether he is right or not... Just sayin you catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

My first car was a 1974 Renault 16. Ugliest car ever made. It had a little popcorn popper of an engine, yet it had lots of power and got 50mpg. FIFTY.
I'd like someone to explain to me why "smart cars" can't even get 50mpg.
They cant because they need to be built to meet stringent safety standards..its all excess weight that kills the performance and batteries weight a alot more then a tank of gas.
What excess weight on a Smart Fourtwo are you speaking of? A stiff breeze will knock them over.

PV=nRT (ideal gas - but you get the idea) Notice that pressure (P) and temperature (T) are proportional. We all know this to be true; as you heat up a gas in a vessel of constant volume, the pressure will go up. So there is no need to put in a special compressor. Although I haven't thought this through very carefully (so be kind if it turns out to be a really stupid thought) I think this will work in a closed pressure vessel. Pour in the liquid fuel, Heat it up, vapor is released, pressure will build, open the injection valve, and combust. The only thing I haven't really given much thought is what temperature you are limited to for something like gasoline. I don't remember the flashpoint temp at 1 atmosphere off the top of my head, so this could be pretty bogus.

How about you mind your own buisness...Did either of us ask for your opinion?? And this guys attracting more flies with his BS then honey ever could you Jackwagon. All im doing is disputing his outrageous claims and trying to inform people that he is promoting outlandish non truths. Do you have issues with people exposing liars on this site or would you rather just live in a fantasy land where you believe everything someone says?

The problem is that the engine is already doing this for you during compression cycle, piston moving up compressing air fuel mixture. By preheating you will reduce the amount of air entering the engine and the maximum achievable compression and thus the efficiency and power output. Racing engines have higher power output when the ambient temperature is low(at the morning) for example.
