| If you have asked me a year ago if the fuel | | | | fuel ejection and replaced carburetors, and |
| crisis was real I would have said absolutely | | | | if you know anything about engines and saving |
| NO. But with all the crooks in the world | | | | fuel that was not the way to go. |
| today I have change my opinion about this | | | | |
| subject. You may ask why bother writing about | | | | My second reason is where is our fuel going? |
| this subject at all. One reason is we should | | | | |
| be trying to save fuel by any means possible, | | | | Also back in the sixties they built the |
| like trying to limit the amount of times you | | | | Alaskan oil line in the event that we needed |
| drive your car which can be done by planning | | | | more oil then we could produce for the |
| your trips. You can go to work with other | | | | American People. Where is all that oil going |
| employees or take busses. Another suggestion | | | | that is flowing from those pipes? I can tell |
| is to try using a fuel saver additive in your | | | | you it is not going to the American people or |
| car. But let's get back to the reasons I | | | | oil would not be that expensive. The oil is |
| believe it is real. | | | | shipped somewhere else, most likely to Japan, |
| | | | and we have to import our oil so we have to |
| My first reason is technology: When I was | | | | pay higher prices for it. Also why do we have |
| younger the energy companies promised if the | | | | all our own oil wells capped? Why won't they |
| American people would allow them to build | | | | let us drill off our own costs when they plan |
| Nuclear power plants in the U.S.A that after | | | | on letting China drill off Florida coast? |
| the return on their investment on building | | | | Another big question is why can't we burn |
| these plants was realized, energy in the | | | | coal? I live here in Virginia and there is a |
| future would be dirt cheap.( Sorry youngsters | | | | train that goes past our house 24 times a day |
| that we bought that lie). Looks to me like my | | | | with over 100 cars of coal on it. It is being |
| electric bill keeps climbing ever year not | | | | shipped somewhere over seas where some other |
| get any cheaper. | | | | country can save fuel oil by using our |
| | | | natural resources but we here in America we |
| Also in the early sixties a friend of mine | | | | cannot burn our own coal. Oh by the way they |
| came up with this idea for saving fuel by | | | | bought another one hundred shinny new cars |
| eliminating oil changes in automobiles. He | | | | and have filled them up with coal and now are |
| invented an oil filter system that was | | | | running two trains every hour. |
| accessible from under the hood of the car | | | | |
| instead of under the engine. This allowed all | | | | We also have over 12 million illegal |
| the oil to run back down into the engine from | | | | immigrants in this country using million of |
| the filter because of gravity. You would | | | | gallons of our fuel every single day. A good |
| unscrew the top part of the filter housing | | | | way to save fuel is by sending these people |
| and add a roll of toilet paper and put the | | | | back to their own country. I think this is |
| top back on. After installing the new roll of | | | | one good fuel saver idea, because they are |
| toilet paper you would then add one quart of | | | | here not to become Americans but to rob and |
| oil. He would do this every 20 thousand miles | | | | pillage and take over our country and turn it |
| and his oil was always clean on his dip | | | | into theirs. If you think this statement is |
| stick. He told me dirt brakes down the oil | | | | not true, then take a look at Miami and some |
| and if you can keep it clean it would last | | | | other states that have been taken over by |
| much longer. No companies were interested in | | | | them. Or just dial you phone company and they |
| this invention because it would cut oil | | | | ask you to push some kind of number to hear |
| consumption. No one worried about saving furl | | | | their message in English. |
| or fuel savers in those days. By the way look | | | | |
| under the hood of the new BMW's today and see | | | | The main reason I believe that contributes to |
| they used part of his idea. | | | | our shortage is the lack of refineries in |
| | | | this country. We use to have over a hundred |
| Also in the sixties there was a gentleman | | | | refineries in this country but have downsized |
| that invented a carburetor that got 100 miles | | | | to about 12. Sounds a little weird to me that |
| to the gallon on those big heavy old | | | | if there is more of a demand for fuel today |
| clunkers. Here drove his car from Chicago to | | | | like they claim we should have more not less |
| California on one take of gas. It was | | | | refineries. |
| advertized on television and it was big news. | | | | |
| It was short lived because a few weeks later | | | | If they would come out with the cars that run |
| it was reported that he had other fuel tanks | | | | on hydrogen, build a few more nuclear power |
| on the car. I can tell you that is a lie but | | | | plants and come out with all the other |
| the American people seem to buy those kind of | | | | inventions they have suppress over the years |
| lies. The man at his own expense put a copy | | | | it would end all these problems. I am sure |
| of the blue print of his carburetor in the | | | | they will someday after they have everything |
| public libraries so if anyone wanted proof | | | | you own in their back pockets but until then |
| for themselves they could build one. Guess no | | | | we can only hope. So until then become a real |
| one did ? By the way the very next year after | | | | fuel saver by saving fuel any way you can. |
| his new invention the auto companies went to | | | | |
