There was an example by a forum member who pointed out that if one blows a head gasket, the internals become very clean because of the water / steam created by the head gasket failure. I know from the STD community that the water or W&M injection, the vapor lowers Exhaust Gas Temps. And, the "M" gives an added kick or boost so to speak. I will be burning W&M in my turbo engine to lower the temps and for that added boost. However, for this application, no need for the boost. Only so much mojo out of a tired 77 HP engine. Hope that helps ...  |
Thanks - whilst I still have two feet strictly planted in the diesel only camp at the moment - I can envisage a time when diesel fuel just won't be sold here anymore. So I think the more people there are doing this sort of thing the better and bigger the knowledge base becomes - diesel only diehards might not like it but some of these alternative fuels (or a variation on the theme) might be the future whether they like it or not. Still I'll have a look about for those links - thanks again - steam cleaner eh?
