ABSTRACT:
A device that is in communication with the air intake valve of a carburetor of an internal combustion engine to inject a mist of water into the air fuel mixture formed by the carburetor, which water when in the zone of combustion in the engine reacts with carbon monoxide and free carbon therein to form carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The hydrogen so formed reacts with oxygen in the air-fuel mixture to form water that is either discharged in the exhaust from the engine or reacts with additional carbon dioxide and carbon in the zone of combustion to produce further carbon dioxide and hydrogen that continues until the carbon dioxide and water are discharged in the exhaust from the engine. The device when operating not only lowers the content of carbon-monoxide in the exhause discharged from the engine, but also tends to remove and minimize the depositing of carbon on spark plugs and in the cylinders of the engine.
