Butane and other low vapor pressure hydrocarbons are added in the winter to increase the vaporization of gasoline at low temperatures. The mixture goes to longer carbon chains in the summer to do jus

Propane dissolves in the other higher-molecular-weight hydrocarbons. Not that it won't come out of solution, but it's not _that_ fast. (Think of hydrochloric acid, which is hydrogen chloride (a gas)

Here's the nerdy answer to your question: Gasoline Blending 101. There is really hardly any propane in gasoline and refiners don't specifically put propane into gasoline (there is a small amount of p

The problem that really develops is because they place so many detergents and additives in the gas. When you have gas evaporate off that changes the mixture of gas to additives. Evaporate off enough

One of the guys from SCTOA switched his car-a TR4 or 6 or something. I've seen the huge tank in the trunk-and he uses the old gas port as a joke on poeple-puts one of those springy snakes in it and t

He had the car (resurected and running) at Wings and Wheels-he got me with that stupid snake trick of his! (And he did stop in at the Ventura show) And yes, he was at Triumphest-David told me he had
