ARE WE REALLY FREE?
You may not think this subject has anything to do with our freedoms, but it does. This is about big government and big business restricting information. Freedom of speech and freedom of information.
Have you ever heard of the mythical carburetors that get 60 to 100 MPG? Many have and most engineers will say that it is physically impossible. Let me tell you my story first. Over 20 year ago I wrote an article about high mileage carbs and did a little research on my own. I eventually came in contact with a man in Alexandria, Virginia by name of Edgar Van House. He had been an auto mechanic since the 1940’s and did a lot of experimenting and tinkering with lawn mower engines.
We corresponded by letter for a number of months. He said he invented a carburetor that got 50 to 60 miles per gallon on big engines like a Chrysler 8 cylinder. Back in the 60’s or 70’s, these were big, gas guzzling engines. He went to work for a company that used various big trucks with big gasoline and diesel engines. He said he installed some of his carburetors on the company’s trucks and they worked great, getting unheard of MPG. He was fired for his effort.
He tried to market his carburetors locally and was constantly suppressed and harassed by the big oil companies. He finally sued Standard Oil and won the case, but he still couldn’t sell his carburetor for various reasons. Distributors and auto parts stores mysteriously didn’t want to talk to him! They had deep pockets. The last time I heard from him, he was going to make me up a carburetor for a big Chrysler I owned at the time. I didn’t hear from him for quite a while and had not received my carb, so I wrote him to ask where my carb was. He said he was contacted by the Toyota Motor Company in Japan and after some negotiations, he sold his carburetor to them for a million dollars. Edgar was happy, because he retired a wealthy man and I never heard from him or his carburetor again!
Are there really carburetors that get fantastic mileage? I’ll let you judge for yourself. You can got to these sites to get more information about the Pogue carburetor and other hi mileage carbs. Go to www.rexresearch.com/pogue/1pogue.html AND www.himacressearch.com/books/secrets.html.
Ever hear of a guy called called Mills Beam? Probably not. He developed a simple heat exchange carburetor back in 1920. He used the hot exhaust gases of an engine to vaporize the liquid gas being burned. He was able to double and triple the gas mileage of the cars he tested. He was offered a setlement and percentage fee for the rights to his device. Of course, no one ever head of the device again. The trail led to a major oil company, but could never be proved.
Using the same vaporization technology, John Gulley of Gratz, Kentucky could supposedly get 115 miles per gallon out of his 8 cylinder buick. Detroit interests bought it out in the 1950s.
Another advocate of vaporizing gasoline is Clayton J. Queries of Lucerne Valley, California. On July 2nd, 1974, Querles claimed that he could easily develop an engine which could run all day on a gallon of gas. He said he took a 10,000 mile trip across the country in his 1949 Buick for ten dollars worth of carbide.
I am not sure about all of these debates about whether these carbs work or not, but my question is "why doesn’t someone test these devices?" and I mean somebody legitimate. You can’t have the oil companies test these carburetors, because they will make sure the tests fail. It is obviously in their interest to make them fail.
More information will be coming in future issues. Need more details? Go to the United States Patent office website and check out this patent: U.S. PAT# 3913004. There are many patents for fuel economy at the patent office, but you have to know where to look. Many parts of the patents (drawings and details) are technical, but you’ll get the idea. Why would anybody spend the time and money to patent something that doesn’t work?
