I'd love them to cut down the pollution! < One of the major oil companies was testing gas/water mixtures to see how much they could dilute their gas before anyone noticed. It turned out that this was the same company that years ago had purchased all the rights to the 100 MPG carburetor and kept it out of production. Well they tried the diluted gas with this carb and found that it still ran even when the mixture was 100% water. Needless to say these findings were not published. :) John Eaton !hplabs!hp-pcd!john
