Interesting project dusty fire walker, I will try to just stick to a few key points to try to not start an argument, looks like there is a lot of that scattered throughout this thread. Makes me sad and not want to post.
In your first post, you mentioned you wanted some constructive criticism, so I will share a few thoughts.
A few posts mention preheating fuel, I hope you are aware of the extreme danger involved with heat and any type of flammable solid/liquid/gas and proceed with extreme caution. I don’t want to see you or anyone else get hurt. I am afraid that most of us are so used to gasoline now that we forget how dangerous it is.
I am also a little worried about the engine/exhaust/intake gunking up, I hope your system doesn’t require frequent cleanings. I also hope you are setting this up in a dual fuel manner, so that you can run on straight gasoline as you work any bugs out.
I took an old truck (1991 Chevy 5.7L 2500LD) from 11MPG to 18 MPG average without even touching the engine, using careful driving and some mods. Biggest gains were from a manual transmission swap and putting appropriate (street oriented all terrain) tires on the truck.
I hope you proceed safely with your project. Good luck.
