Abstract
A system and method to improve the efficiency of an internal combustion engine by delivering an air/fuel mixture to the combustion chamber in a pure gaseous state. The system accepts an air/fuel mixture from a carburetor or injector which is placed into a vaporized state before entering the combustion chamber of the engine. An intake track capable of withstanding exhaust gas temperatures of an internal combustion engine is constructed and arranged to cause vaporization of fuel and inhibit the vaporization from condensing.
Claims12
An apparatus for improving the efficiency of an internal combustion engine having a multi-stroke combustion chamber employing at least one inlet valve for receipt of a metered air/fuel mixture and at least one exhaust valve for discharge of spent air/fuel mixture, said improvement comprising:
- an intake track positioned between said metered air/fuel mixture and said inlet valve, said intake track comprises a first right angle elbow directing the air/flow downwardly through a first vertically positioned conductor tube, a second right angle elbow coupled to a second conductor tube horizontally disposed, a third right angle elbow coupled to a vertically disposed third conductor tube extending upward to a height equal to or above the entrance tube, a fourth right angle elbow coupled to a fourth horizontally disposed conductor tube, a fifth right angle elbow coupled to a fifth vertically disposed conductor tube, a sixth right angle elbow coupled to a sixth horizontally disposed conductor tube, a seventh right angle elbow coupled to a seventh vertically disposed conductor tube, an eighth right angle elbow coupled to a eighth horizontally disposed conductor tube, a ninth right angle elbow coupled to a ninth vertically disposed conductor tube, and a tenth right angle elbow coupled to an extender tube for delivering the vaporized air/fuel mixture to the combustion chamber, said intake track juxtapositioned to an exhaust interconnect;
- wherein said air/fuel mixture is directed through said intake track and heated to a temperature above 225 degrees Fahrenheit for vaporization of liquid fuel.
