Re:Water Injection
 
Propane is used for deisels just as nitrous is used for gas engines. Water injection would steam clean the engine. If you have ever pulled the head off an engine that blew a headgasket you can tell which cylinder had a coolant leak because one of the combustion chamers in the head will be squeeky clean like raw aluminum. the water meth injection is an awesome idea. I might just rig something up when I do my turbo project

You guys watch on "crank and chrome" on TNN? or TBS? whatever, they had a Diesal dulley and they put propane injection on it, and it gained like 125hp.. heh

yeah its practiacal but you have to remember that if you tune your car to run with the water spray to check the fluid level a couple times a week otherwise you might find yourself pinging

you're right! propane is like nitrous on a diesel...but you can still run nitrous on a diesel if you want.
