ABSTRACT:
A precombustion conditioning device for gasoline fired internal combustion engines comprising at least one cupped or dished foraminous member disposed across the fuel-air intake passageway of the engine between the carbuetor and fuel-air inlet of the engine, with the foraminous member being electrically insulated from both the carburetor and the engine, with the foraminous member being electrically connected to the positive terminal of a direct current power source, such as the automobile battery, and the negative terminal of the power source being connected to the engine and hence the inside wall of the intake manifold. The mixture of air and gasoline passes through the positively charged foraminous member where the liquid gasoline particles involved, through contact, become positively charged, whereby the positively charged particles repel each other and in passing into the engine intake manifold are attracted to and against the negatively charged interior walls of the manifold and engine to be spread out in thin layers for maximized evaporation of the gasoline, with resultant improved engine performance, gasoline mileage, and reduction of pollutants.
