Both of those proved to be very important when we were in a lean-burn condition. We were able to safely run a standard V-8 engine on fuel vapor at air to fuel ratios up to 28-1 rather than the standard 14.7-1.The impact of lean-burn combustion on fuel economy is well documented. Several of the major automakers experimented with lean-burn during th...
