FUEL VAPORIZATION, DOUBLES MILEAGE

[starcruiser]

the vacuum from the crank is normally drawn thru a PVC valve. This is normal in most engines, they use to valve to stop oil from being sucked into the vacuum system. Please note that this is not the only air source on engines, just one of many. This source is used to suck the fumes from the crank case and mix them with the incoming fuel, part of the recycling of vapors.

Yes but the PCV valve has a minuscule draw from the crankcase.
The opel has the carb (throttle valve) directly into it.

Ps,

It looks like the air ?intake? to the crankcase is on the passenger side/rear of car of the motor,
Routed into the back or engine bay side of the radiator?
Looks like maybe its not a vacuum crankcase, just very hot air draw?

Say, there's an idea!

Heat the air and let that warm the fuel or be responsible for the fumage. then you don't have to worry about preheated gas generating a lot of vapor when the engine is not on.

Good call argona.

Thanks ExxComm,

There?s something strange in that engine, (apart from the obvious lol).
Where?s the fuel vapor inlet?
Hot air is going through the crankcase but,,
That would have to mix with Another fuel vapor hose.

I have this feeling that that brownish red hose (fuel line type hose?)
Is the fuel vapor hose.
Although it does not go to the cylinder head I bet that the cylinder head
has it?s water passages to the block (head gasket passages) welded shut and the fuel is fed
into the cylinder head water passage space for vaporization.

Or something like that ie. Fuel is vaporized somewhere in the block. (or maybe the exhaust?)
Somethings hidden in plain sight in those photo?s

The Opel Shell 376 mpg engine is a very interesting engine to say the least.

Howdy Y'all,

This is making me think of the Pogue (sp?) carburetor which vaporized fuel.  It was from back in the 70's.  It utilized a system that heated the gasoline to enhance the vapor production, and only fed the vapors to the engine.  Hot gas is hazardous, so lets try another way.  Ultrasonic transducers placed down in the plenum of the manifold, pointed up towards the carburetor would be effective at vaporizing the fuel in the air mixture as it is exiting the carburetor...

Good luck with your project...

Blessed Be Brothers...

Mabe a cheap way to play with this concept would be to take apart one or two of these ultrasonic water foggers ... ?
