A old timer at my work told me about it,


this is a trick my Dad taught me many years ago...he would loosen the fan belt a tad so the motor would overheat (not too much) and slowly pour the water down the carb (in small amounts)

A WARNING though... water (turns to steam) does not compress like gas/air... so yu gotta be careful or u will blow da ting up [/color]

Water injection has been arround since the 40's but as some people have pointed out for power reasons....The British used it on their fighters to gain an advantage over the German fighters.....
