Hi Tom, Its called water injection. I had a hot rod engine in years past, that when I cranked in more initial timing with the distributor, it clattered the valves. Water injection cured that. The water injector had a sensor that measured manifold vacuum. When the manifold vacuum fell low enough that the valves clattered, the water injector would spray a fine mist into the carburetor to "cool" the gas mixture and this would stop/prevent the valves from clattering. But of course this was back in the 70s and early 80s, before computers took over our vehicles. I understood that radial piston aircraft engines relied on water injection to keep from self destructing at high altitude, but I don't have first hand knowledge about that.
