My dear old uncle was so convinced. He said it prevented any trace of
pre-ignition. Indeed I once had an old Volkswagen and it ran better
in foggy weather. My uncle was so interested there were plans to
affix a water fogger just before the carburettor. I can't remember
what happened.

yes they do run better when the air has moisture in it. at least they
did when cars had carburetors.  but I've noticed my Lancer runs better
when the air is damp and it has fuel injection. someone will be along
shortly to explain the technicalities of it all.  :)

there were products to do that. I don't remember either how it all ended
up. maybe the petrol companies squashed them?

Yep. Definitely had absolutely no idea.

Really? And what was the relative humidity on that day? :)

He was committed to an asylum I expect.

Performance output of engines changes with air *density*, in that the
denser the air the more power they make. It's all about volumetric
efficiency, and the amount of air you can pack into the cylinders. When
air density is high, you pack more air into each cylinder creating a
bigger bang and ultimately more power. This is precisely why most cars
run better at night with cooler air temperatures than they do over the
course of the day where the temperatures have been higher.

Humidity has the opposite effect in that the higher the moisture content
of the air the less dense it becomes resulting in a lower than optimum
air volume in each cylinder with a corresponding reduction in power output.

It's not rocket science. Well, for anyone *other* than you and your
uncle apparently. And possibly Felix......

A car may run better if the fog happens to be cold which isn't always
the case.

Whilst he grasps some of the most basic concepts, It's sciency stuff
well beyond the pay grade of some uneducable unqualified loser who
couldn't finish year 9 :-) He doesn't consider how water can be used to
increase air density, what impact it has in ignition and how that can be
used to advantage in terms of compression or boost. Nor does he consider
the thermal expansion characteristics of moisture in air when it is heated.

yes I thought water vapor (can) increase air density, and also water
vapor burns when in the cylinder, iirc.

Latent heat of evaporation. The water evaporates thereby cooling the
incoming air making it more dense. Cars pre-70s had no intake air
temperature maintenance so ran better on cold days due to more dense air.

Meth/water injection systems have been around since before the days of
WWII, and they're designed to guard against an abnormal combustion
events that are the result of running high levels of boost. Particularly
in aircraft engines where air density varies with altitude.

However, none of that has anything whatsoever to do with the notion of
car engines running better in humid weather which is a nonsense.

Yeah, so would I :)
By all means, watch them Felix. But when you're done, take a crack at
explaining how water/methanol injection systems which exist to prevent
abnormal combustion problems, have anything to do with the claim that
engines run better in humid conditions.

Seriously. Have a go at an explanation. If you get in quick you'll be
able to beat Clasener who's no doubt bursting at the seams to make a
long winded and completely irrelevant post on the subject like he
*always* does.

Still, if you want to educate yourself, then have a read here:

ask them to explain to you how "wet air" and water injection are two
different things :)

It allows high levels of boost without knock being a problem. It was
only used at takeoff power.

Nice attempt at face-saving, except nobody said they were the same
thing, MaGoogle. The videos I posted explained the difference perfectly
and how water *can* be used to increase power but clearly it's above
*your* level of understanding.

As expected from an uneducable year 9 unqualified flunky :-)

To a degree. It helps prevent detonation, but doesn't totally eliminate
the possibility.

My understanding is that some engines used it at War Emergency Power
regardless of altitude.

Basically similar to T.O. power, sometimes it is referred to as full
military power - to be used when the shit has hit the fan and engine
life is not an immediate consideration.

Sort of similar idea to the mates race car running E85 because its
compression ratio is around 14.2:1

No, you said cars run better when its foggy.
Humid air is actually less dense than dry air so the reality is a car
engine will run worse not that anyone would notice much difference.
The variable is if the air was cold as well as foggy, its not the fog
that makes the air more dense, its the cold.
See below, I'd believe Isaac Newton before I'd believe your uncle.

"Most people who haven’t studied physics or chemistry find it hard to
believe that humid air is lighter, or less dense, than dry air. How can
the air become lighter if we add water vapor to it?
Scientists have known this for a long time. The first was Isaac Newton,
who stated that humid air is less dense than dry air in 1717 in his
book, Optics. But, other scientists didn’t generally understand this
until later in that century."

That may be so, and it's what would normally be expected. As has been
mentioned, cooler air is denser air, and denser air makes more power all
else being equal. But that's *not* what you claimed. What you claimed
was that *humid* weather makes cars run better, and has been
demonstrated that is *not* the case.

Nothing like a bit of reactive goal-post shifting to try to cover your

Do you now? And why would that be?

You've done nothing here other than to show yourself to be completely
wrong when you started this thread claiming that cars run better in
humid weather, only *now* you've added to that by apparently being
totally incapable of appreciating the difference between the effects on
engine output relative to the degree of humidity, and water/methanol
injection systems used to prevent detonation in boosted engine applications.

I suspect you're not on your Pat Malone there either, which is why the
FLC brings water/meth injection up as if it's in some way relevant to
your initial comments :)

Either way, I'm starting to feel more than a little concerned for Felix,
for if you continue to make completely clueless and totally retarded
posts like this then his title of "Dumbest inbred cuntoxen to ever
inhabit this group in it's entire history" is genuinely under threat.

No, humid air is less dense. Cold air is more dense. You can have warm
humid air and cold humid air. You can also use water to increase power,
but that is not the same thing as the answer to "Do cars run better in
humid weather?" being "yes". The only people suggesting someone
presented that as the answer are those with a different agenda.

Watch the videos I linked to so you can understand the differences.
Ignore the trolls who aren't qualified and don't understand the science
which goes well beyond their level of understanding. They are only
interested in attacking and abusing you and others on strawmen of their
creation.

Obviously it being chilly was what was making it run better.
Old VW's had about 40hp so any improvement would be noticeable but not
so much on cars that had a decent amount of power.

Generally people don't display this level of "stupid" by accident or
genetics and have to dedicate a fair amount of their lives in the
pursuit of it. You must work very hard at this and just *had* to have
had times in the past where you considered turning pro.

Dance around making an absolute *flog* of yourself all you like, but the
simple arithmetic here is that you, and your uncle, have no idea what
you're talking about and you can consider yourself as having been educated.

Here endeth the lesson.

Yeah man what?
The difference between a properly engineered water injection system made
for a specific engine can hardly be compared to a standard engine
running in fog, the amount of water an engine would ingest in fog would
be so insignificant that it would be near impossible to measure.
I know of a mechanic who fitted water injection (you could buy WI kits)
to his Austin 1800 back in the 70's, supposedly the main benefit was it
keep the top of the pistons and combustion chambers cleaner back in the
day when fuel was dirty and engines carboned up.
He removed it after a few months because whilst it did keep things
cleaner it didn't make the engine run any better long term.

There is certainly a troll lurking here but his name isn't Noddy.
Try and work out who it is, hint look in a mirror.

I made no invite! Peter is here of his own volition. If course, that is
way too complex for you to get your head around.

Oh, and the computer works a treat too, a 100% runner under Linux at the
moment and I'm currently typing this missive on it. The bargain of the
century! Currently not using the Thermaltake cable management 1000 Watt
PSU, it weighed a ton and was way overkill for my needs. I just plugged
in a smaller 500 Watt Thermaltake PSU I had laying around since it'll be
on (relatively) light duties from here on in.

He could have done worse Darren, he could have followed *your leaqd* and

and dog knows what else. Hell, you even invented 22+ years of membership

real truth - the VACC have never heard of you or your *claimed*

so basically producing the effects Peter's Uncle noticed. I was out the

I know about the computer; I built it in 2011. And I priced it to
sell.
We upgraded to the latest NUC type with external bits. MB built in,
external 8-HDD bank, a 10-port USB3 powered hub for all accessories
including Optical drive/burner. It flies!
The old one was a pain maneuvering the HDDs in and out of the tower
case and took too much room, and the cards were the same. And it was

This is too funny. For two reasons. 1. You sold xeno a box that is way
past eol and he was stupid enough to buy it.

2. you bought a nuc which are basically only good for word processing or
media storage. Your 8 bay hdd enclosure is about half the size of a
tower so your space savings when you add in the nuc and 10 port usb hub
and optical drive (who uses those any more) are minimal at best.

Shirley not. It's a downgrade if anything as the data transfer speed of
the enclosure over usb would be way slower than drives connected to a
motherboard. The transfer speed of the optical drive being limited as
well. Whilst the nuc will be quick with it's ssd onboard the rest of the
system limits its abilities. Using a 10 port usb hub you are bound to
have communication issues when trying to access multiple devices.

On the other hand he managed to con xeno into buying a unit that wasn't
worth the cost of the freight to ship it so he's to be congratulated for
that.

I know a bloke who bought a NUC once, and he was banging on about it as
if it was the best thing ever invented. Turns out it wasn't, and about
all the use he gets out of it is as a movie player :)

Anyone who buys one must have *severely* limited PC requirements....

That computer was working fine when it left here, and if someone

Clearly and sadly you survived the Cretaceous extinction; things have
moved on. Have you ever split fingernails extracting HDDs from a
bank of tower enclosures? Have you been maddened trying to
plug/unplug those hideous Sata plugs/sockets? Someone has invented
USB3+ now; check it out.
I use our new NUC for Photoshop, LAN cables, Movies, MSoft365, and

Seriously Grumpy, is that *all* you have? You're really showing your
childish true colours here now! EOL? Surely you jest? Sorry laddie, it
doesn't work that way with computers, especially custom built units like
this one. Any-single-component group in the PC can be sold for in excess
of the $50 I paid should I see fit to scrap it. That won't happen
however and it now has a *new* lease of life here as a very fast Linux
workstation. Even bought a *new* Antec P10 F-LUX midi tower case to
transfer all the gubbins into. Using a Thermaltake 500W PSU instead of
the http://nordic.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00000880 that
it came with. How much is one of these on the used market Grumps?

If you had seen the Lian Li server case it all came in, you wouldn't
make such frivolous and ridiculous comments. It quite literally dwarfed
my tower cases. My mate in West Footscray said it was big after he had
picked it up, I just didn't realise how big. Too big for my needs.

Pretty pointless really, huh? Alvey comes in here to make these same

The funny part is that I don't think anyone genuinely gives a *fuck*
about anything he has to say, but not only that all he manages to do is
make himself look like a total crank who spends a fair portion of his
day sitting in a dark corner somewhere rocking back and forth while

The *best* part about it all is that he doesn't need any help from

Cost of pickup, freight, inc. delivery to door = $0. Recall, if you
will, I said I was interested in the unit when first advertised but I
had a *logistics problem*. I *phoned a friend*, one of those people
Darren would have you believe were *mythical*. It was picked up and paid
for a mere few days later. That's what friends do for you! I guess you
wouldn't know about that aspect of life. Hell, you can't even keep a

You'll have to excuse Grumpy, he never managed to progress from being a

I've probably repaired more computers than you've had hot breakfasts.
Nothing hard about removing hard drives from a tower at all. Except for
aio pc's in which case it can be a pita. Sata cables were a major step
up from ide. I've even installed scsi devices. and custom built scsi
cables.

OMIGOD, here comes the self-aggrandisement! Frankly my dear, who gives a
stuff that you were stuck at the hardware level and never moved onwards
and upwards from there? Speaking of self-aggrandisement, how's that
*Masters Degree* you boasted about, the one you *claimed* you were
undertaking? That was about the same time your woman pissed you off and
your tech career turned to shit and you ended up *retired*. You've not
mentioned it since, unsurprisingly.

WFM, so have I and I don't even consider myself a PC tech. And I was
tinkering with SCSI devices and custom building computers in the *80s*.
Made up all sorts of ribbon cables back then, it isn't difficult if you
have the right gear, you know.

Obviously you are not up to date with *new* tech. My Macbook Air is more
than capable of such tasks. That's why I bought it. A well equipped NUC
would be similarly capable.

Once again you fail to understand anything. I was always retiring at 58
whether or not my ex was with me. I withdrew from undertaking the
masters as I undertook further manufacturer training which was more
relevant to my job. My work didn't go to shit, I had enough to retire
and enjoy my life. That's what smart people do. I still dabble somewhat
when needed for pocket money for my hobby.

And yet another complete idiot joins the party. So much for being so

What a load of piffle. You only mentioned doing a masters in order to
big yourself. I doubt you ever signed up. As for your work, you were
still on the lowest rungs of the ladder. No doubt your *employer* was
beginning to think you were a *bit past it* and decided you needed to be
put out to pasture. Happy grazing in the paddock!

Not a all, far more accurate to call you a *liar*.

You make the claims, you get to prove them. That was your call when the
shoe was on the other foot but now, when you're under the spotlight, you
run away. But it's Ok Darren, I *know* you can't hand over *any*

If water burns, why do the fire brigade pour it on burning buildings? It
is because it's cheaper than petrol and they can dance around the fire
as the water burns up chanting "Burn baby burn"?

Anyway the next bit may be hard for you as it contains science, I'll
type it slowly, you can stick your tongue out if it helps you to
concentrate.

Most substances (not all but including water) have 3 states, solid,
liquid, and gaseous, with water these are called ice, water, and water
vapour. Transitioning between these states involves latent energy, e.g.
going from liquid to gaseous, (latent) heat of vaporization or heat of
evaporation, is the amount of energy (enthalpy) that must be added to a
liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas.

So when water is converted into vapor in the induction system of an IC
engine it absorbs energy cooling the mixture and preventing
pre-detonation (Knocking). This allows a higher compression ratio or a
higher level of boost.

Thus water is evaporated not burnt, AFAIK, the only way that water would
be "Burnt" would be in a thermo-nuclear reaction.

Thus endeth the lesson.

Fuck me....

*Please* tell me this idiot is *not* stupid enough to think that when
water used in an injection system on some engines evaporates the
hydrogen atoms separate and become a fuel.

*Please* tell me this blithering moron is not that stupid.... :)

(rhetorical question). of course it's evaporated. that's what I meant by
simply saying it's 'burnt'. it cannot remain in it's liquid state. noddy
can't see beyond the end of his nose, and you can't see beyond your ego.

And why not! It's suitably inaccurate to fit snugly into your arsenal of
weird and useless 'weapons'.

So what you're spraying above Buffo is that people are allowed to say
anything they like and are not bound to provide any substantion for it at
all. Wow. Not only is that in *direct* opposition to Westminster Law and a
societal norm, it's also jaw-droppingly hypocritical of you, He Who Used To
Challenge So Many Others. Like, remember how Big Tough Fraudster carried on
when he was mentioned as a 'paedophile'? Different tune then wasn't it
Buffo?

Now the *facts* here Fraudster are that you made a specific claim, Hell!
You even blurted to let you know when I wanted you to prove it! So I'm
doing as you advised and asking you to prove it. This is as far from the
'Karen entitlement' as one can get.

So once again, it's back to you Fraudster. Are you going to do what you
said you'd do? Or are you going to dig a deeper hole for yourself in
Chickenshit Castle?

Yes, it was. Very. Yet another example of how keen Felix is to
demonstrate how utterly clueless he actually is, and being put back in
his box which will hopefully give the idiot a moment of pause and
motivate him to educate himself.

I don't know how old Felix is, but I believe he is somewhere around the
mid 70's or so. I may be wrong and if I am I'm happy to stand corrected,
but that's what I seem to recall being mentioned once. If that's the
case then genuinely am in amazement how someone who is so utterly
ignorant of the world in general as he *clearly* is could have got that
far without killing himself or everyone around him.

I mean, for fuck's sake this is a bloke who cannot tell that a computer
generated animation of a truck used in a video game isn't real....

They still get me to work for them. Funny that. So much for being put

flown around the state training others. Hmm must have needed to be put

My super covers all my needs however sometimes I like to buy myself toys
to play with. Expensive ones. I still get jobs from the company I worked
for when I want to earn some pocket money as I said. It pays for camera
lenses for my camera which at a few thousand each would eat into my
super a bit.

I wasn't talking about the obvious typo. You're an idiot if you think
that was my issue. Please tell me how he uses his new nuc for "Lan
Cables"? How is your macbook air capable of the same. Bloody idiot.

yes he's a liar, a fool, and a coward. says he has no interest, but
looks for every opportunity to comment, but can't comment directly
because he's hiding behind his castle wall. he has no integrity and no
authority.
