notice how the demo pilot in the video is practically a stick figure.


reminds me of when ethanol was promoted. Put two cars on the race track at 30 mph and wow, they both get the same mileage.

Take it down the highway at 65 and there are radical differences.

Don’t get me wrong, there is a place for appropriate technology . I use 85% ethanol on my local car and it is economical at the price difference. Note, I said there is a price difference, wonder why/s? and I do think the oxygenation helps reduce pollution but if you have to use more, is there a net gain. NET gain.

Ethanol used to cost more to produce but government subsidies were used to control the price to force using instead of 100% gas.
