Trying to make fuel vapor supply system

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around methods for creating a fuel vapor supply system for gasoline engines. Participants explore various approaches, including the use of ultrasonic misters, heating fuel, and alternative fuel injection methods.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant suggests using an ultrasonic mister but expresses concern about the risk of sparks and explosions.
  • Another participant recommends researching fuel injection systems and mentions that a simple carburetor could suffice for the task.
  • A different approach proposed involves running the fuel pump back into the tank to agitate the fuel and using copper tubing to heat the fuel from the radiator.
  • One participant mentions the possibility of adding HHO to the fuel vapor mix.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants present multiple competing views and approaches, with no consensus reached on the best method for creating a fuel vapor supply system.

Contextual Notes

Participants do not clarify the assumptions behind their proposed methods, and there are unresolved technical details regarding safety and effectiveness of the suggested approaches.

Originally posted this in the wrong section. What would be the most basic and solid way of doing this for a gasoline engine? I've thought about using a ultrasonic mister but I am afraid that there may be a potential for a spark, don't want to blow up. I've also tossed around the idea of heating the fuel to its evaporation temps, but not sure what the simplest way would be to do this. Any ideas?

Take and run your fuel pump back into the tank to agitate the fuel to produce vapor, and run a coil of copper tubing thru your fuel tank from the radiator to heat the fuel, use your vapor return to the intake after all the censors. Do not deactivate the injectors.
 
You may also add HHO to mix with the fuel vapor.
