Thanks for sharing! I have had several backfires using vapor and I'll tell you what it burns big time and has allot more power than a liquid mist of gasoline. When dialing in a new system the potential for a backfire is much higher than a system you have figured out and dialed in. Backfire protection is a must, you always want to be prepared and have a safe system just in case. I had been testing vapor systems for over a year before I had my first backfire.
Tyson Capel what are he sizes of your tubes ? I'm going to get the parts tomorrow I'm going to go with the ammo box method and run it into the air intake rather then the carburetor.
What about run time? What i would like to see is a accurate side by side comparison on solid fuel vs vapor on how long it will run on say 1 Gal of gas. I assume they would vary with and without loads. Mowing grass really does not allow a consistent equal load. I would like to see a generator modified like you did the mower and a 1500 watt space heater applied and see how long the run time would be in comparison. Lots of benefits to what you have done, like to see more practical in savings.
i am sure i will find out this winter when we have a power outage, i have a outside generator to power the whole house,that will be the test! i am sure it will do what i want.
The logic seems to be undeniable. I have a ford 2001 4.2L V6 cargo van that i am converting it into a work/stealth camper van. If i am on a remote jobsite with below freezing temperatures and sleeping in it would be nice to run the van at idle on vapors. generate power from alternator and provide heat for pennies is the idea. I have awesome access to the motor through the cab and have some room to add a vapor container there. I have both exhaust manifolds right there using one to preheat the air for bubbler then heat it more on other exhaust manifold before it hits intake. Using copper lines to wrap the manifolds. The fuel lines also terminate right there by the bell housing from aluminum lines to rubber hose to fuel rail. On the fence as which method is best to vaporize the fuel most efficiently. I like your set up as to worse case scenario i can get generator to run space heater for pennies. So many options. Thanks for passing on your knowledge and sharing. Eager to see generator mod.
A generator is the way to do load testing that's for sure. I have my generator equiped with one of my vapor systems and have everything setup to do comparison testing and i will shoot a video of it once I have more time. I'm working 2 jobs a full time and a part time one and have been going to school as well but once I get some time I will share the test results. I'm sure The Vaporkid will as well.
Very interesting work. How using a piezoelectric plate to vaporize the gasoline? (e.g. the piezoelectric / ultrasonic plates used in humidifiers and foggers?) Might not be as efficient as fumes, but might be simpler.
Hey vapor kid I saved the video interview that you did with that other guy the mechanic. The one where you went over records of other mechanics experimenting with vapor and the video got deleted off of UA-cam. I was hoping you knew why and if you could post the vidio again?
I am very interested in your work. I have an ill-tempered older Craftsman generator that is difficult to start after sitting for more than a couple of days. I liked your video where you re-installed the carburetor on the lawn mower, as a generator uses an internal governor linked to the carburetor to keep the generator output @ 60 Hz. I intend to convert the generator for economy and ease of starting. Your flash suppressor reminded me that there has been a gas can product on the market for some time called "Explosafe." www.explosafe.com/ If you are familiar with "expanded metal," that's essentially what it is, only made from tin foil. The principle is that expanded metal has so much surface area that ignition temperature cannot be reached as vapors are kept cool, well below ignition temperature. Screening obviously also works, but I would use multiple layers to ensure heat dissipation. I believe this principle may interfere with heated vapor as it may cool the fuel vapor more that you want. I intend to use a very course steel wool for flash suppression, probably soldered back into a tin can with a fitting on each end. This eliminates glass components which I do not like around vibrating/rotating machinery. Just sayin' - Thank you for your videos.
Why not use this (or something like it) on other gasoline vehicles PLUS a hydrogen generator! I make my own design of both for MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY. Gasoline vapor is AMAZING but hydrogen gas is THE ULTIMATE FUEL-THE MOST POWERFUL & NO POLLUTION! Why not use both?
Why not heat the gasoline with hho gas from a HYDROGEN GENERATOR? Instead of having the hho gas go into the intake, have it go into a GASOLINE VAPORIZER to HEAT the gasoline & PUSH the gasoline vapor & the hho gas combination into the intake? Wouldn't this be MUCH BETTER? If you don't think so, please let me know why! By having hho gas in with the gasoline vapor, I believe you will have not only better mpg & power, but also LESS POLLUTION! Why not try it & COMPARE? Also I advise being prepared for a back fire JUST IN CASE! We need to be prepared ALL WE CAN!
Wendell Ferrell "Why not heat the gasoline with hho gas from a HYDROGEN GENERATOR?" Because HHO gas is not inherently hot. It comes from electrolysis, and the only heat produced is when you actually burn it. The electronics providing the electricity might heat up a little, but that's not useable. Combining the two may increase efficiency, but it wouldn't matter where they are combined. Running the HHO into the gas vaporizer may actually reduce the temperature of the vapor.
yo Vaaporkid why you try to make a fuel vapor can when you can just buy one from auto part store. my 1986 buick regal has one. www.autozone.com/engine-management/vapor-canister/duralast-vapor-canister/buick/regal/1986/6-cylinders-a-3-8l-2bl-ohv/66264_0_0/
the vapor canister for my 1986 buick regal non turbo is used to filter out gas fumes and a fuel goes thru there too. it waste of gas, also my car has a heater gasket that goes under the carburetor which vaporize the gas and this is standard on cars like mines.I saw charliechopchopman interview video with this guy named bill. bill was one of the inventors who knew guys like stanly myers, Tom ogle etc. the guy had a old notebook full of newspaper clipping of many inventors who created free energy running vehicles that got shut down by the government.
The "vapor canister" in your Buick is part of the government required stock "vapor recovery" system which collects excess vapor from the fuel tank and lines, and routes it to the intake to prevent air pollution. It is not a vapor generation system. It is only to help prevent vapor explosions in the tank, and leakage to the atmosphere, i.e. air pollution. It is filled with activated charcoal to hold the vapors and dissipate them slowly through a computer controlled solenoid to the intake. It would never run the engine by itself.ua-cam.com/video/nIZ4EGknw2Q/v-deo.html
My brother and i did this its very easy to run any motor on fumes .........the problem is carburetor are designed to turn gas into a fume .................YOU Get very little more run time on fumes then you do using the carburetor ..................all these videos are BS. They never show you how long the motor runs with the same amount of gas running on Carburetor and then fumes. My Brother and i ran 8 ounces of gas though the carburetor and timed it then put the exact same amount of gas in the bottle and ran it on fumes the difference was a min more at best . Most people are stupid and just have no clue a motor can run on fumes. GAS vapor is what runs ALL MOTORS . ...........
Great work. Everything you do is well explained. Thank you so much for your time, experience and knowledge. May you be blessed
Thanks for everything you have shown us. Runs perfectly.

Tyson Capel does your bubbler method work or does it stunt off after 15 minutes like everyone says?
ZZROBProductions It only works if you continuously let a small amount of fuel in.
Tyson Capel what are he sizes of your tubes ? I'm going to get the parts tomorrow I'm going to go with the ammo box method and run it into the air intake rather then the carburetor.
ZZROBProductions I've used many different sizes of tubes. I've used from a 3-inch to clear down to about a half inch.

Great demo thanks
one question...do you get leftover residue from gasoline or does it get evaporated too?
What kind of screen are you using and what kind of sponge are you using?
How big are your pipes connecting to the carburetor?
thank you that helped alot now as nervous I can be I'm going to try that method but with a jar hope I don't blow up lol.
Hi i was wondering about your progress with the vapor in your truck?
will be finishing it up when it starts getting a little warmer, to cold right now.
Yes to cold here as well and too much snow, i got my HHO set up in my Dodge pick up, works like a charm, keep me posted
Hey vapor kid I saved the video interview that you did with that other guy the mechanic. The one where you went over records of other mechanics experimenting with vapor and the video got deleted off of UA-cam. I was hoping you knew why and if you could post the vidio again?
Is a stainless steel scren? Or a its aluminum?
just regular window screen
Wish of your wicking projects works best.
Vaporkid, are you still working on these projects?
yes im starting back up on it, was to cold to mess with it when it was cold.
@@TheVaporkid have you used it on a car or truck yet?
