Hi Tim,
Sorry I cant help and must plead ignorance. What is an ICE?
Also
re seals I am sure there is someone far more knowledgeable than me who has
had hands
Like I said before a lack of atmospheric pressure is (vacuum) which will work
the fogger? Does anyone know if biodiesel needs to be washed if mixed 50/50
with regular diesel fuel, and if you wash it can isopropyl alc. be used
instead boiling the fuel to remove final water content? Thanks
Thanks Steve,
I sometimes dont make the most obvious connections when
it comes to abbreviations.

the early 80's by Henry (Smokey) Yunick from Daytona FL. Had an

Meanwhile, let's figure out how to physically tap into this pressure source
without spoiling any expensive bits. How much pressure is there in the
exhaust? How does it vary with revs and throttle setting?
(usually 6 psi, probably never more than 15 psi).

Ben,
That's a smart idea, but I'll bet somebody will come along with all the
reasons why not.

An engine is nothing more than an air pump try putting your hand over the
mouth of the carburetor on the filter side and tell me that atmospheric
pressure is pulling your hand in.
There is an interesting piece of demonstration
That's because if you figure the plates have about 72^2 of surface area
and atmospheric pressure is 14.7psi then the atmosphere is holding the
plates together with 1058 pounds of force.
..
Alan,
That's 1,058 #s external pressure. But there is also negative pressure
between the plates
to be able to
actually contribute some useful info of my own someday soon.
Thanks.

My real question is have you or anyone else here on the list, seen or heard

Robert,
Point taken and noted.
Which brings me to another point. Has anyone out there ever had anything to
do with Ray Covey's Vapour Carburetion Conversion Systems? Do they know much
about them and did they ever really work properly? Believe with the Mark 5
system he managed to
Alan,
That's 1,058 #s external pressure. But there is also negative pressure
between the plates
Doesn't this mean that (external pressure x external surface area) +
(internal negative pressure x internal surface area) = total force needed
to sever the two plates?
It's been a while
Thanks for THAT tip Robert!! I'll remember that!
