As for reducing the knocking ,,I doubt it..

I used it as a very effective gas extender in a 327 engine holly carbs. I had a
tank and valve hooked into the carbs and it actually worked as far as milage.
approximately 8% . That was in the 70s' when the "gas" crunch was on. It's
still there but we don't have to wait in line very long for 2.00 gas.;=( I also
had a tank in the engine bay as a pre-heater a line coiled inside the water
heated tank" Do not try this in the summer" It also worked ok ,, but as far as
the noisey knock ,,valve timeing and fuel.

How about a scheduled meeting in Portland at the / after the ABFM?? It is too
late now but for some to drive 175 miles to not see any one for a meeting ?
 We would love to make it .. The announcement was too late to plan. I would also
suggest to have a meeting at the WWABFM at that time to coordinate the show. A
lot of times, planning is of the essence. Pacific Tiger Club is a very needed
unit to help keep this type of group together. And I enjoy reading the NEWS. As
an Alpine owner and member, I feel kinda left out in left field sometimes hearing
about a function after,or too late.
