Driving home 200 miles today from seeing the son and grandson. With all the smoke in the air I should be burning wood gasification and part gasoline. I hope the computer can adjust for it for the air to fuel ratio.
 
Oh, I think you get better fuel mileage. And the exhaust will be cleaner than the intake air. It's like
Los Angeles was before catalytic convertors.
 
I put a funnel under the drivers seat on my truck. Ran a hose from funnel to air filter on truck. I passed gas and my truck passed the car in front of me.
Almost scared the crap out of me.
 
Every thing here has a sick yellow color from the sunshine thru the smoke. No wonder lumber prices are up 6 times! EVERY SUMMER the forests burn. The Bible talks about the earth loosing 1/3 of the trees! I think the fires are deliberately set!
 
George, I think that would have stalled out the engine......

Was in South Dakota yesterday, back to southern MN, man was it hazy, about 2 mile visibility. Crazy.

Yea, it might be a little lean, but the computer will adjust. I did get great mileage on the way home.
 
What's in the wildfire smog?
I'm guessing there is a lot of H20, C02, and ash. The only fuel may be a very tiny amount of C0.
Article I read said there is more C02 produced in California's wildfires that cars produce in a Year.
Don't see how cars will have any issues. Some drive in heavy smog in California on a bad day.
 
Here in R.I. clear across the country we have had a few days of haze they tell us is from the fires out west. At times there is just a hint of smoke smell too. Almost not so you would notice it if you didn't know the smoke was there but then again you do.
