If it worked so well then propane engines should see a dramatic improvement in fuel economy since propanes boiling point it like -40. But they dont.
That's basically a surface carburetor and they were abandoned about 100 years ago.
2 people got burned to death a few years ago when their "vaporizer", which was a 55 gallon drum with a bunch of gasoline in loaded inside a van exploded.
If it worked why not use propane?
