    That is quite clever. I was reading that and went, "Bruce Crower......oh yeah, I know who that is!"

    Dam, that's a great idea I think. I had devised plans for a bulky, expensive system to recapture lost heat energy, but this seems much better and very cheap.

    So how exactly does it work? I gather it adds one extra up and down cycle and sprays water into the combustion chamber, which cools it and then is pushed out the exhaust?

    While mechanically it seems neat, I dont think we need water to become as much of a comodity as oil...

    It cools the cylinder, but heats and expands the water, giving a little more power from what I gather

    Water is much cheaper. It wold need to be distilled though. After the water is turned to steam it goes outside where it will either recondense, or increase chances of rain.

    It exits a really hot vapor, not likely to cause water puddles.

    Iv'e got a crower camshaft in the rover
    I was rading in my BMW magazine (still get one for some reason) where they have designed a steam assist for their gas cars. It uses the exhaust to produce steam and stores it to help get the car rolling...kind of like a hybrid.
    and their new hybrid is pretty wild. their is no alternator. the ac compressor and water pump run off 12volt motors (no belts) and the batteries are like a couple of long sets of D-cells in the rocker area.
