I 100% agree with Ecky.

Well know ICE Professor of Mechanical Engineering John B. Heywood talk about this in several parts of his books.
Quote: "Unburn hydrocarbon levels in the exhaust of a spark-ignition engine under normal operating conditions are typically in the range of 1000 to 3000 ppm C1. This corresponds to between about 1 and 2 1/2 percent of the fuel flow into the engine."

Also, one of our present ICE Gods, Heinz Pitsch talk about this in detail.

The heavier compounds are there for a reason and they are the largest contributor to good FE due to their high energy content.


They would still be there but now converted to a vapor state before intake.


Several test have been done proving that the energy of gasoline is being burnt during the power stroke and can be measure by the coolant temps and exhaust temps.

I see no point here. There is left over gasoline from a standard ICE.


The video that was posted "lawnmower carb guy" this guy is a scam artist!!! Several people have called him out on his YouTube page, and he just deletes the them. His test was only 40 miles. He's just making YouTube $$$ on the idiots that have no clue and want to believe in his magic because the cost of fuel right now.

Oh I totally agree. Total scam as is HHO. Even pure hydrogen cannot make any change is a cars MPG.

I know I can get from 5MPG in a 4.6 Ford by running at 16.4 A/F ratios.

This I did a number of times in a 2000 Mercury Grand Marque which got 28/30MPG at 65MPH at 1700RPMs, and 35MPG at 16.4 A/F ratios, with astock 4.6 V8 with a stock 3.27 rear end.

I also believe in certain cars, vans, and SUVs I can get great MPG from say 25 to 30MPG by using a second overdrive to allow cruising at highway speeds 70/70MPG by allowing the car’s engine to run in it best MPG range which in these cases are 1500RPMs which can be shown but driving such cars at 55/65MPH.

Combining the two could give 30/35MPG Highway only.

City driving would cost more of course.
