Think I must be dumber then cause I can't see why you would

“I was messing around with a gasoline lawn mower when I accidentally knocked a hole in its fuel tank. I put a vacuum line running from the tanks straight into the carburetor inlet.”

So there is a hole in the gas tank, what has that to do with the vacuum tubes and how would connecting them to the carburettor inlet fix a hole in the gas tank?

Just because there's a patent doesn't mean it works

Here's a list of patents issued by the US Patent Office:

1. Apparatus for facilitating the birth of a child by centrifugal force.

2. Method of stopping a stolen car without a high-speed chase, utilizing a bar code.

3. Electrified table cloth.

4. Non-lethal cock fighting system.

5. Subliminal Glasses.

I'll just go out on a limb and say it was a male who thought of the first one?

And I never made any such claim; maybee your comprehension needs some work?. But being that there is a patent, how it "works" is spelt out. Therefore anyone that way minded can establish if said design would work & even replicate it themselves should they feel the need.

Yeah .. I get it ... however it relies on "fuel vapors" ... and what are they? Certainly not water ...

This replaces the current carb or injection system whch takes liquid fuel and pumps it - in a measured quantity - into the piston where it is vaporised by heat - then exploded by the spark ..

The question for me is: What kind of vapor? petrol vapor? Hydrogen vapor?

Lighten up, Francis.
My comprehension is fine - I didn't say you made any claim (so go and unknot your panties).
You say there's a patent, but you can't be arsed actually reading it.
I was merely making the comment that just because there's a patent doesn't mean it works (as I couldn't be arsed reading it, either).
