Fuel Vapor Systems _________________________ For those who don't know, gasoline gives off a vapor as it evaporates. It is flammable like gasoline and can be used in smaller quantities to give the same power with a huge fuel efficiency. This was discovered in the 30's and 40's and tested by Shell Oil. The technology has long been claimed fake, till Tom Ogle rediscovered it, and sold the patent and was killed afterward by an unknown assailant. The auto manufacturer won't use this becuase it cuts into oil profits but it does work I assure you, I have tested this on a 190cc briggs small engine and on my 1982 Datsun Z22 engine. How it works _______________ It's components consist of an evaporator , tank to evaporator pump, hoses leading to the throttle body, and from the tank to the evaporator , and a fuel meter to control fuel flow into the evaporator. As well as an evaporator air intake tube, and a throttle intake tube. Air is sucked into the engine by atmosphereic pressure pulling air into the evaporator through a hose that leads from the outside of the evaporator to the bottom of it internally submerged in gasoline, this causes the gasoline to bubble creating vapor, the gasoline however, cools as it does this so the evaporator is slightly heated by the vehicles battery in a colder environment and could also later be heated by engine exhaust. The vapor inside the evaporator is pulled into the engine and metered by a throttle plate into the intake. The size of the tubes and air intake must be calculated to achieve the correct air fuel vapor mixture (14.7/1). As gasoline in the evaporator is consumed slowly, more is metered in by the fuel valve. The fuel in the evaporator must have a return line to send unused fuel back to the main evap emissions controlled tank after the vehicles has been shut off to avoid awaiting fuel. This fuel system seems to prove the original thermal efficiency formula false. In Shell Oil, and Tom Ogles experiments and tests, it is estimated to have a max thereoetical efficency of 400 US gallons per mile .
