You've probably heard about micro screening used in older carb applications to break up fuel droplets, and stretch the fuel further that way.
Has anyone tried a mesh approach w fuel injection??? Are the injectors too pre determined engineer wise to function when semi-crude differences are introduced to established SYSTEMS????

A few years ago I read about a guy that had an aftermarket fuel heater system installed in his all highway driven H3 and saw no result.
Back around 2006 I discovered little plastic turblance inducers found after the tips of injectors used on at least some GM fuel injected engines (made well before 2006), they may have sparyed through a plastic mesh, I do not fully recall. Injector tip accessories seem to have fallen out of favor in more recent years.
The best thing I found you can do to Gasoline to increase its combustion charistics is to increase its volitility (at least with a carb). I tested this between winter 2007 to summer 2008 by buying "winter fuel" and keeping it in a sealed metal barrel (not the standard 55 gallon, much smaller). I saved the fuel till summer time and used it to fill up 2 tanks, each tank picked up an unmistakable 2mpg and my engine seemed much happier running off high volitility gas in warm weather.
The oil companies/government adujsts volititaly by controling butane content.
