Ever consider running Z on Fuel Vapor
#3
I hadn't heard of it till i saw your post. I spent a little time yesterday researching it. First impressions is you will probably you will lose a considerable amount of performance but if if gas mileage is your only concern that is negligible. It also seems that if this was a valid operation car manufactures would have done it by now, assuming its not some conspiracy between car manufactures and oil company's. I think it will tend to dry out the seals extremely quickly causing more maintenance costs that would negate any savings on gas mileage.
But i am not a mechanic and am speaking from a couple hours of reading what the internet says (which we all know that the internet is never wrong). I will continue to look in to it and see if i find anything else. If this is a new idea i would wait and see what it does to other people's car before risking my engine.

There is a movie Gashole on Hulu..worth watching as it outlines how the technology was literally killed by the oil magnates. As for the wear on Engine, they say far less wear will take place..no carbon build ups etc.

I've seen simalar setups my self many moons ago and yes sir way easies on a engine with less carbor build up... If my memory stands correct I remember a bunch of ol codgers that my grand father used to race with out west did some experimentation but shoot back then they had good ol ethanol they called it etthal lol and if my memory stands correct again ol etthal as they called it ran fewer emissions ie less carbon build up now don't quote me on this fact as I only remember the ol sucker talking about this stuff I was just a little kid but alas I do remember them ol coots hammering back and forth on the gas milleage they were getting
