Old Mecanic, You just made lots of good points. Two things that you may disagree with or may not have realized are that the car manufacturers could do much better and choose not too for financial reasons and most cars including your Insight have a pretty sloppy combustion processes that pass fuel through your engine without burning it. Your Insight along with almost every other vehicle on the road has a catalytic converter for burning that wasted fuel. I'm trying to use that fuel that would otherwise be wasted. I may not achieve my goal but if I do I want to make my findings available to everyone. Time will tell!
