Alternatives to propane injection
I was joking around the other day talking about getting more fuel in the system with propane and i said jokingly "just rig up a wd 40 can to get hit by a piece of linkage and theres your fuel!). I was thinking about that and realized, maybe it wasn't so stupid. Propane injection isn't very practical because of the fact that you have to refil the propane so i was thinking just use a high pressure electric pump of some sorts and rig up a injector into the intake manifold, and feed atomized diesel into the intake with the press of a button or something. Why not? Somone tell me why not. Im not into the idea of it being a constant thing, just an optional switch you press if your on a steep hill (assuming you have full boost (but safe, like 15psi) and an inter cooler, so you'll actually use the fuel). Just get a small hydraulic pump or something and inject high pressure diesel into the manifold. I suppose if it was easy everyone would do it, but it just seems like the perfect solution. I personally beleive this will work, and I will do it to my sd (if i can get enough pressure to turn diesel into a mist). I also beleive this would be very safe for the engine as its still diesel, your just emulating more fuel from the pump. Sort of like cheating for us people without crazy m-pumps
