Perhaps you have followed the development of "Super Critical Fuel Injection"
by a local Camarillo company, Transonic Combustion Inc.

"We bring dramatic fuel economy improvements to existing automotive
powertrains," said Brian Ahlborn, president and CEO,
Transonic Combustion, Inc. "Our approach to energy efficiency will help the
automotive industry meet 2016 fuel economy and emissions regulations


With Transonic Combustion's technology, the fuel is heated to 400 degrees
Celsius, which turns it into a vapor, or so-called supercritical fuel. The
vapor state allows it to mix with air much more quickly and enter the
combustion chamber much faster.  "In the supercritical state, we are able to
inject the fuel more rapidly and use significantly less fuel to achieve the
same amount of work to drive the piston."

"A modified gasoline engine installed in a 3200-lb (1451-kg)
test vehicle, for example, is getting 98 mpg (41.6 km/L)
when running at a steady 50 mph (80 km/h) in the lab."

Gee that sounds familiar.

Could that be the long lost 100 mpg carburettor? :)

A lot of fashionable green propaganda with zero technical
content.

I have the patent. Obviously the patent office
is no longer bothering to read the  pat apps :)

All those people and 70,000 square feet and no car I or
anybody else can drive? :)  I know a few automotive
journalist that would love to test it.

I'll believe it when I see it function :)
