For all you dieselburners, check out this month's Trailer Life magazine at your local bookstore. There's an article on injecting regulated amounts of propane into your intake manifold to increase the efficiency of the combustion cycle. Supposedly increases the burn percentage from 72-75% to 93-95%. It's demo'ed on a Ford diesel truck, but it may be of interest to those of us dissatisfied with a mere 48hp at the flywheel. Check it out! - Sean L. *roadwarrior* '82 GL Diesel "Donder" |
