More Carburetion

One Hundred Twenty Ninth Post: More Carburetion

In the book “Small Gas Engines” by Gray and Barrow it explains that engines burn fuel, but it is more of a mixture of fuel and air. The book has aged, but it says that four gallons of air are mixed with each tablespoon of gasoline. So the fuel is more of a gas than a liquid.

The point is that most of us drive our vehicles without knowing how they work or how to fix them. If we understood how the engine work we would have a better understanding of how that expensive gasoline we purchase is being used.

It would be hard to reinvent a new type of engine overnight, but it would be beneficial to know the basics of engines. What if instead of using ordinary air that is mixed with the gasoline, someone could find a method of filtering out pure oxygen out of the air to mix with the gas. It probably wouldn’t work without modifying current engines. It would probably create a much too powerful explosion in the piston which would create what the previous book calls knocking.

It seems like the idea would be to difficult to implement, but ideas like these are always being started. The result is news that we are running out of oil to rumors oil companies covering up the new perpetual motion and free energy machines.

Whatever your opinion, you must admit we need better engines if not just to improve transportation but to help the world.
