How to get better gas milage

How to get better gas millage.

By David Riffey



http://www.pureenergysystems.com/news/2005/03/17/6900069_Acetone/



I was driving home from my job one night listening to the radio. I heard something that amazed me and I had to give it a try. My work is about 35 miles one way from my home.
It normally takes me an hour to get home on a good day. This particular night I was listening to an interview on an AM radio station. The guest started his interview by talking about how to get better gas millage. He said that some petroleum experts came out with information stating that putting acetone in gasoline will cause the gas to burn more efficiently.

When I got home I found this information on a webpage.

http://www.pureenergysystems.com/news/2005/03/17/6900069_Acetone/

Simply put, the formula is: between 1-4 oz of acetone to 10 gal of gas

The car I was driving at the time was a 1999 Nissan Altima. The four cylinder engine got pretty good gas millage, but I was filling up almost everyday to make sure I did not have to stop on the way to work to get gas. Adding acetone to the gasoline seemed to give me added pep and better miles per gallon. I did not get an accurate measurement, but my estimates was that I was getting around 24 MPG.

In February I decided to trade that car in. I purchased a 2005 Kia Amanti. It is a very nice car with so many buttons and gadgets that it took me a couple weeks to figure out how they all work. The first thing I noticed was the in dash computer system with an Average MPG function. The first week driving indicated that I was getting 11 miles per gallon.
YIKES! I googled and found that the car has a reputation for getting poor gas millage. I got the acetone out and started by putting in. Beginning with 1 ounce in my 17 gallon tank. That brought the MPG up to around 19 MPG. Since then I have continued to increase the amount of acetone and I am getting between 21-24 MPG.

With the spike of gas prices, this has been a welcome experience.
I have shared this with a few of my co-workers. Last week a friend told me he was getting around 44MPG in his Sukuki. The car normally gets around 30 MPG so that was pretty good to start. He was very excited with his results and was telling everyone about it.

I recommend that you go to the webpage listed and read the report thoroughly. Start small
by putting a little in to see if you get any results. I personally have had good results with this. But, this information is being shared purely as research. What you do with it is at your own risk.

Iron Man 2008

I watched Iron Man 2008 yesterday.
I am a IM fan from the comic books. The movie was a blast. Great to see an old favorite as a film with the speical effects that make things look real.
Robert Downey Jr WAS Tony Stark.

My only critism is this. The old "bad heart" thing that was inherited from the old comic does not make sense these days. Tony Stark is a muliibilionaire technical genius. Back when the comic was first written, heart transplants and open heart surgury was experimental. Today it happens everyday. Now, I can accept a temporary fix to keep the shrapnel out of his heart. But for the ongoing movies, lets get him to the best heart surgeon in the world and take care of it. If his heart is too far gone for repair, Stark can invent a mechanical heart to replace it.
Does Tony Stark really need a tragic flaw to make the story compelling?
I think the arc of him changing from an arrogant spoiled rich kid to a guy who realizes he really does not have everything has plenty of personal stuff for the writers to work with.

I did like the movie. I will watch it again, and I will buy the DVD when it comes out.

By the way, if you have not seen the movie, look for Stan Lee's cameo.
It is quick and it was only afterwards that I thought back and realized
that it was him.

Also, to anyone who left before the credits were over, you missed a big suprise.

NEVER, leave a Marvel movie before the credits have ended.

Tips on Pumping Gas

I got this information passed on from a friend and I think it something that should be shared.

These days we all need to be more careful with our money and find ways to save. Every dime spent on buying gasoline is money that could  be spend on something else. And that cash never comes back to us. It never grows interest. It goes into the pockets of the elite oil tycoons and bankers that continually erode our financial and personal freedom.

TIPS ON PUMPING GAS


I don't know what you guys are paying for
gasoline.... but here in California we are also paying higher, up to
$3.50 per gallon. But my line of work is in petroleum for about 31 years
now, so here are some tricks to get more of your money's worth for every
gallon..

Here at the Kinder Morgan Pipeline where I work
in San Jose , CA we deliver about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period
thru the pipeline. One day is diesel the next day is jet fuel, and
gasoline, regular and premium grades. We have 34-storage tanks here with
a total capacity of 16,800,000 gallons.

Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the
early morning when the ground temperature is still cold.
Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below
ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets
warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the
evening....your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum
business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline,
diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an
important role. A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this
business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation
at the pumps.

When you're filling up do not squeeze the
trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. If you look you will see that the
trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. In slow mode you
should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are
created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor
return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that
goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and
back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less worth for
your money.

One of the most important tips is to fill up
when your gas tank is HALF FULL. The reason for this is, the more gas
you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space.
Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks
have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance
between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation.
Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is
temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact
amount.

Another reminder, if there is a gasoline truck
pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill
up--most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being
delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles
on the bottom.

Hope this will help you get the most value for
your money.

Are You Write For Success?

Are You Write For Success?
by David Riffey

One of the favorite things we handwriting analysts like to do is to examine the handwriting of famous or successful people. We can see the personality traits that enabled that person to achieve their goals in life. This is a sample of a famous person who is greatly admired by people all over the world.




Self Esteem is an overall measure of a person’s self image and goals. A person with high self esteem will choose goals that are more risky and have greater rewards. This is indicated by how high the t-bar crosses the t-stem. If a person has low t-bars they fear change. But a person with high t-bars believes they deserve to have the things they want and can achieve them. Of course, there is a limit to everything. A t-bar that floats above the t-stem reveals the dreamer. That person may be impractical about their desires. In this example, this man was a person of high achievement. He came up from humble beginnings to become one of history’s greatest.

Enthusiasm is the excitement that can drive the motivated person . Enthusiasm is contagious. People like to be around someone who passionately believes in what they are doing. He was passionately devoted to his cause. Detractors, after once meeting him became admirers.

Now, as you look at your own handwriting; how is your self esteem? Could it be higher? Would enthusiasm propel you to greater accomplishments? Begin now to create positive change in your life by changing your handwriting. Raise your t-bars. Feel the thrill of that long t-bar that moves through life with passion.
Oh... who was this great man? Abe Lincoln.
