Kindly label/post up front such 'click bait' type nonsense, can you ta, Zynerji?
41mpg from a 302ci v8 isn't in line with the current thread?

And I have no "credibility" on these forums, as I am not an engineer. I simply learns and ask questions, point out obvious fanboism, and state my opinion on the racing and cars.
I don't need credibility in this place. I have plenty in real life.
I thought it was a worthy garage hack. Expecting lab-worthy results kinda misses the fun of this.pgfpro wrote: ↑10 May 2022, 16:47This guy is just out to make YouTube $$$$.Zynerji wrote: ↑10 May 2022, 16:0741mpg from a 302ci v8 isn't in line with the current thread?

The test he did is crap went around 40 miles and re-filled his car. I did the same test and my stock 2017 Ford Fusion and got 50mpg vs normally 32mpg compared to when I run 300 plus miles before I fill up. He got over 500K of hits from his lawn mower carb with his vacuum leak box. Fuel prices are high and the ignorant general public is eating up.
The scammer did his test at 70mph with a stock Mavrick that has a crappy Cd. His intake vacuum was around 17 inch/Hg so he had to be running a high BSFC number on a stock unmodified engine with just a different carb.
Hes even been called out to re-test 300+ miles with a un bias person to ride along and guess what it got deleted.

there are premature deaths from air pollution of those living in huts having open fires but no chimneys or flues ....

clearly current public air is cleaner than ever (since the invention of fire)
clearly there is some safe level of so-called pollutants - to those who trust our governments position in this regard
btw ....
Ukraine currently says in total 2 people died or will die from Chernobyl '86
Friends of Earth says 900000 people
