Is a 100 mpg car REAL, Absolutely!?

[galvin]

Tom Ogle created a 100+ mpg carburetor in the 70's with a 4600- lb Buick Roadmaster ( roughly equivalent weight to that of a Hummer H3 ) using PURE VAPOR technology. He wasn't a NASA scientist, nor a mechanical engineer. He was a high school drop-out working as a mechanic who stumbled upon the technology while toying his lawnmower. You need to pressurize and heat the gas tank in order to allow pure gasoline vapor ( not liquid form as is used by fuel injection or standard carburetor) to be drawn into the fuel intake. Next, you need to humidify the air intake in order for the gas/fuel mixture to carry the fumes into the cylinder. This also drastically reduces engine temperatures ( energy loss is ultimately reduced ) I am a biochemical engineer for a university in Ohio,... not a mechanic ( by any stretch ) .

The only efficient way to burn gas is by limiting combustion to fumes/vapor. It is possible to augmented the fuel system of a 1994 Honda Civic by implementing this technology. Still running today, the miles per gallon average has risen from roughly 25 mpgs stock ( un-tampered ) to 75-80 mpgs post augmentation, to 175 mpgs after optimizing the variables ( temp. & pressure of gas tank, humidity levels of air intake).

. For everyone that has been duped into believing we are using even remotely modern and efficient means of combustion, please watch the short documentary, "GasHole" on Netflix. Our next project is to run an internal combustion engine on nothing but water. IMPOSSIBLE YOU SAY! molecular decomposition by means of electrolysis ( running electrical charge through water ) separates the hydrogen and oxygen in water into a gas form, and is relatively easy to do. Compressed and pumped into fuel intake, it functions just as the PURE VAPOR carbs work, but with even fewer emmissions, and MUCH less expense in fuel... Obviously. Why haven't these technologies reached mainstream media? Because Tom Ogle mysteriously died? Because Rudolph Diesel (inventor of diesel engine that initially ran on peanut oil) mysteriously died, perhaps? Or because Exxon or Mobil owns the patents.

So if anyone gets to read this... Paradigm-enslaved nay-sayers, I beckon you.. Bring the noise! Those intelligent enough to research, I welcome you to the largest and most economically stifling cover-up in history

No there is no "100 mpg carb." That piece of con artistry gets "invented" about 20 or 30 times a year in various places around the country. It's invariably a scam.

Seriously, if these things could be made to work in any form, there is no possible way the government or anyone else could suppress that technology. People would be doing it in shops and garages all over the place. It would be a huge thing. Nobody could stop it.

It hasn't happened, because the whole thing is a load of crap.

There was a similar attempt in the engineering college at my old state university back in about 1963, where a heated and pressurized gas tank was part of the process. A prototype was produced, and actually ran a vehicle - I seem to recall it was a Chevy Nova - twice, for about twenty minutes. On the third trial run, it blew up with a spectacular bang! Fortunately, it was being run remotely, rather than with a real, live person driving the thing. We found pieces of that car a mile away. It was decided that the idea was just too risky and the project was dropped.

The university wasn't happy when they found out - it had not been an authorized project, but one undertaken by some grad students on their own time.
