      Scotty, I just went from brainerd Minnesota down to the twin cities and my fuel mileage believe it or not fuel mileage on my 4 cylinder mustang was around 31 MI per gallon. My average around town is about 24 mi to the gallon. I am old and I don't need a V8 or its insurance. The two-door does give me more leg room which has always been a problem with the standard four-door car.

    Back in the early years of tractors, most were started by hand on gasoline and once the engine was warm enough switched over to distillate. Often however the fuel would pre detonate. To control this water was injected into the air fuel mixture to cool the mixture. The old timers used to say the John Deere D ran on water.

    I had a 1960 Cadillac engine in a '61 Studebaker Lark. It was a screamer, but it pinged on the junk premium gas. I added a water injection kit that had a vacuum switch that would turn a water pump on when the vacuum dropped. The switch was adjustable and once I fine tuned it, the engine ran great, and it ran for years like that until I sold it.

I have commented before about the newest Tundra's get worse gas mileage than my 150,000 mile Tundra. I hope to run my 2010 Tundra till the wheels fall off and I will get out and put them back on.

I assisted him in his setup and helped manage his booth for a week and figured out the basic technological functions. His technology was the biggest attraction at the annual Tesla Expo. The inventor was so paranoid(for good reason) that his progress was paralyzed. He was convinced that he should control the dissemination and use of it to prevent it from being sequestered in the same manner as Stanley Meyers inventions were..

    BMW had a really nice fleet of 7-series running hydrogen, back in the early 2000s. I drove one from L.A. to Santa Barbara, as a member of the BMWCCA. It was fantastic, and only emitted water out of the tailpipe.

    The water injection never existed; in the second world conflict the setting was called "War Emergency Power". It was a methanol water injection that allowed for increased throttle, boost settings from the turbo and to advance the timing without pinging or blowing the motor up in the moment. However each air force had different specifications for the engine wear and how many minutes you could run this "WEP" before the motor needed to be torn apart for an overhaul. It wasn't much and on the order of 5-8 minutes, less if the motor hadn't been recently overhauled!

I was going to buy two at the time, the french guy tried to manifacture them ,but he died and they sold the patent to TATA I think. No word after that. That was years ago. The guy was inventing engines even for Formula 1 cars. It is interesting staff. Please,I asked you before too,if you would say something about that. For me that was the real future for public transportation.Guy Negre air car

    This off topic but all our cruise line and big ships need to have a desalination system set up . If people wanna go green this is the way to do it. Most our ships run on kerosene. All commercial airlines run on kerosene also. It would be a major transfer but if someone can figure out how to do it you will be so rich you wont know how to spend the money.

    Hydrogen does not cause carbon build up.
    Water injection systems are commercially available, the Ford Focus mk3 RS with it's four pot, turbo, direct injection is one of those vehicles that really benefit. It's also good fit for Turbo diesels if the intercooler is not big enough.
    Side benefit is the reduction in soot emissions.

    I usually keep vehicles for 7-10 years. Now I’m worried about more vehicles I like are changing to smaller turbo charged engines. Yes, you get the horsepower, fuel efficiency is questionable, but life expectancy is what worries me.
    Is this a marketing strategy to ensure you buy a new car every five years? What are these turbo charged engines going to do to the used car market? Is it really worth buying a five year old car with a turbo charged engine that has 70k miles on it? You would be lucky if you get more than 100k out of those engines.

    Going by your end note about the added power draw of all the extra electronic crap in modern cars, maybe cars need greater capacity batteries with something like 14 volts, instead of 12.

    • @grantdavis5992
      @grantdavis5992 7 месяцев назад

      12 volts is and will remain standard. The battery capacity is in amp hours, not voltage. Increased amp hour capacity will help with parasitic draw, but probably a better alternative would be installing a small, 1 or 2 amp solar panel someplace like the roof so the battery will always get a trickle charge when there's sunlight. Even skylight will provide a small charge which could be enough. Obviously, garaged cars wouldn't benefit, but it could help all the others.

    So basically it’s exactly the same technology as was used in aircraft in WW2. The internal combustion engine mechanical technology was pushed as far as it could go during WW2 . The only improvement since has been because of the advances in electronics and computer systems. Personally I would prefer having the ability to opt out of the electronics and computer systems.

    I have a 2006 Tundra 4.7 liter. Terrific engine and truck. If Toyota wanted to "turbo" anything maybe they should have used a mild turbo (low boost pressure) on the 4.7 liter to increase hp and torque w/o while potentially increasing fuel mileage.
