People have answered that question. You don't want to hear the
answer. The test was done in a highly specialized environment, with a
car that wouldn't be considered safe on the road.

It's for emissions purposes. The accumulated filth of millions of
cars creates pollution problems, but the VAST majority of all the energy
in fuel is burned.

I don't have a problem with that. It's the outlandish claim that
vaporized gasoline can return hundreds of MPG in a REAL car that I
disagree with.

Oh, I'm sure we've talked about this before.

Why the insults, Mike? I'm writing from actual experience. I've
built engines for gasoline AND propane. I've built a fuel injection
computer for my truck, and I DO understand how the system works. Why do
you dismiss my practical experience in this realm?
You might be smarter than I am, and that would be ok. But are you
smarter than Sir Harry Ricardo was? Do you have something informative
to say to Mr. Carnot?

We're discussing an issue here. I've heard these outlandish claims
for "vapor carburation" many times before. Part of the reasoning behind
it involves preserving a lifestyle where our big, heavy machines take us
wherever we want to go, whenever we want. That mentality lies at the
root of the larger problems we're trying to address.
