Pre-rain/Rain = Truck runs amazing!

This absorption of heat prevents the temperature of combustion from rushing to a sharp peak (as it does in a standard engine) and then dropping rapidly off. Instead, the car's heat increases more slowly, reaches a lower peak, and descends much more gradually. (In addition, the longer overall combustion duration creates more pressure than does a standard engine's cycle.)
You can see two links I've posted up top, on the last post.... do you think that type of motor and nozzle could work? I would really like to figure this out, I don't want a STRAIGHT shot of water in my intake filter! I just want something pumping out a mist into the intake filter, to create a humid condition in the intake housing and throttle body(due to water and engine heat). Pretty much MOCK it raining outside.
So sir, (Raybz)... please inform me how many GPM/GPH you were pumping out and from what size tank. Because a tank of water = tank of gas, sounds like a damn good plan!
DUDE! Check this out... this Chinese dude is SELLING the IDEA! http://www.water-as-gasoline.com/

What about purchasing a system designed for it? There's plenty of universal kits out there (they're kinda pricey though). If you wanted to build your own you could always get all the specs you can off of manufacturer websites and build your kit to match those specs as well.
Here's a kit i found on ebay for non forced induction applications....

I don't want the methanol though, but thanks.for the link and idea. Maybe I CAN atleast get the specs because I'd like to build this myself. All I'm trying to do is "mock" humidity/rain

what are the long term effects on engine?
just wondering...

Just a thought here. But wether you build or buy you could run water or methanol or a mixture of both. Most people use methanol in winter because water freezes obviously. But i believe you could run just straight water during the spring/summer/fall months

methanol is wood alcohol. dry gas is pure methanol. Windshield washer fluid is a mixture of methanol and water...it's a pretty common substance.

so your saying it's possible to use windshield washer fluid to inject into my intake at a low psi mist?

Okie doke, so I pretty much found a step by step DIY Guide on this and plan to do it sometime over the winter. This link shows you every part needed and how to set it up! I believe I'm going to install my tank in the rear somewhere (POSSIBLY even use the rear washer fluid tank), just because I want room under my hood and use my front washers quite often. They usually do this on boosted cars to be able to run higher boost without causing damage, I'm doing it so my truck runs cooler and constantly cleans buildup throughout the motor. (and yes, people DO DO IT on non forced induction vehicles) Thank you humid weather and lots of rain (over the past week and a 1/2) for showing me something that can extend the life of my truck, give me better gas mileage and whatever else this EASY setup produces. I KNEW there was something to this when I posted it! If anyone else is interested, here is the linkage.... Do It Yourself Water Alcohol Methanol Injection
