BACKGROUND INFORMATION; Section 511 (b) of the Motor Vehicle Informa-
tion and Cost Savings Act (15 U.S.C. 2011 (b)) requires that:
-------
(b) (1) Upon application of any manufacturer of a retrofit
device or prototype thereof, upon the request of the Federal
Trade Commission pursuant to subsection (a), or upon his own
motion, the EPA Administrator shall evaluate in accordance
with rules prescribed under subsection (d), any retrofit device
to determine whether the device increases fuel economy and to
determine whether the representations (if any) made with respect
to such retrofit devices are accurate.
(c) The EPA Administrator shall publish in the Federal Register a
summary of "the results" "of 'a'll tests conducted under this section,
together with the EPA Administrator's conclusions as to:
(1) the effect of any retrofit device on fuel economy
(2) the effect of any such device on emissions of air
pollutants; and
(3) any other information which the Administrator
determines to be relevant in evaluation such de-
vice.
EPA published final regulations establishing procedures for conducting
fuel economy device evaluations on March 23, 1979 [44 FR 17946] .
ORIGIN OF REQUEST FOR EVALUATION; On August 16, 1979 the EPA received
a request from Auto-Miser International Manufacturing Corporation for
evaluation of a fuel saving device termed the "Auto-Miser." An
evaluation has been made and the results are described completely in a
report entitled: EPA Evaluation of "Auto Miser" Under Section 511 of
the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act. Copies of this
report are available upon request.
-------
SUMMARY OF EVALUATION; The basic conclusion following review of
the testing performed by independent laboratories and by Brigham
Young University is that the "Auto Miser" reduces CO emissions by 12 -
40 percent, but does not improve fuel economy. The other constituents
in the exhaust, HC and NOx were not affected by the device. The
fuel economy results were the same with and without the "Auto Miser"
installed for testing performed according to the Federal Test Proce-
dure and Highway Fuel Economy Tests. While specific numerical fuel-
saving claims are not made in the application, several references are
made naming the "Auto-Miser^-'-ss- A "fuel saving system." The test data
do not substantiate the "fuel saving" capabilities of the "Auto
Miser."

6. Identity of Applicant:
John O'Neil, Jr. and Randall W. Johnson
7. Description of the Device: (As supplied by the applicant):
The system is designed to provide this (fuel/air) vaporized
mixture in parallel to the normal carburetor in a conventional
fuel induction system (not fuel injected) of a spark ignition
engine. Physically, the vapor mixture is introduced below the
carburetor at the connection of the existing crankcase ven-
tilating system to the intake manifold.
The vacuua at the PCV connection is the operational force for
the system. This vacuum draws fuel and air into a vaporizing
chamber wherein the fuel is vaporized by and nixed with in-
coming filtered air. The amount of vacuum taken to operate
the system is limited so as not to adversely affect PCV valve
operation or other vacuum control requirements.
-------
The amount of fuel vaporized is determined by (1) the amount
of fuel in the cannister which is controlled by a float valve,
(2) the vacuum in the cannister which is limited by an air
inlet control adjusting screw, and (3) the amount of air flow
into the cannister which is limited by a flow control screw
and is a function of engine vacuum.
A secondary function of this system is to mix the vaporized
fuel/'air with the vapors passing from the crankcase through
the PCV- system. This mixing enhances the combustibility of
the crankcase vapors"""which in turn contributes to the re-
duction in combustion chamber deposits.
Further, the introduction of this vaporized fuel/air results
in reduced throttle opening at a given operating condition
reducing the amount of fuel taken into the carburetor.
A more complete description can be found in Attachment A.
8. Claimed Applicability of the Device;
Certain general prerequisites must be met for installation of
the device which defines applicability.
a. Vehicle must be equipped with a Positive Crankcase Ven-
tilation (PCV Valve) System.
b. Vehicle must have a carburetor fuel system. Not appli-
cable to fuel injection fuel supply engine.
c. Vehicle must be equipped with engine mounted fuel pump to
permit fuel supply to device from suction side of fuel
pump.
9. Device Installation, Tools Required, Expertise Required
(claimed);
See Attachment B
10. Device Maintenance (claimed);
Maintenance procedures for the system include changing of the
fuel filter and cleaning the air intake filter on an "as
needed" basis to assure continuing correct operation. The
following procedure is used.
a. Fuel Filter: The fuel filter has a translucent housing
to indicate fuel flow and dirt accumulation. When flow
is restricted as determined by visual observation, the
-------
filter is changed by removing the filter from the fuel
supply hose and replacing. Two spring type clamps are
loosened to permit replacement. Tool required: pliers.
b. Air Inlet Filter: Outside air taken from the engine
compartment is used to vaporize the gasoline. This air
is filtered through a porous poly-urethane filter ele-
ment. When visual inspection shows dirt accumulation,
the filter is removed for cleaning. A screw retained cap
is removed to permit the filter element to be taken off
the unit for cleaning and replacement. Tool required:
cross recess screw driver.
11. Effect on Vehicle Emission (non-regulated) (claimed);
The product provides a mixture of air and vaporized gasoline
to the vehicle intake manifold via the positive crankcase
ventilating system. No additives are used in the system.
Therefore, only the normally controlled pollutants (hydro-
carbons, carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen) are emitted
into the ambient air.
12. Safety of the Device (claimed);
Every effort during the development and testing of the system
covered in this application has been directed toward assuring
safe operation. The entire system operates under a vacuum so
any leakage is inward. The design has been directed toward
meeting the Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 301-75 (Fuel
System Integrity).
Further safety considerations include the spring loaded anti-
backfire valve, use of hoses meeting SAE and MIL fuel hose
specifications, materials unaffected by contact with fuel and
which will withstand the operating temperatures.
Malfunction of the system will reduce drivability as shown in
tests presented with this application but not to the extent of
a safety hazard.
13. Emission and Fuel Economy Results Reported by the Applicant;
a. Brigham Young University Engine Dynamometer testing
simulated urban driving cycle (see Attachment C).
b. Summary of Urban/Highway Driving Comparison (see
Attachment D).
-------
c. Test: report, EG&G Automotive Research Inc., covering, test
conducted between June 9, 1979 and July 7, 1979.
14. Information Gathered by EPA
a. Telephone contact with Dr. Germane of Brighata Young
University to discuss testing methods, procedures, and
results*
b. Attempted telephonic confirmation of urban/highway
driving comparison data.
c. Telephonic contact"--with EG&G to determine . valid and
invalid test on Chevetta.
15. Analysis
a. Installation: As noted in Attachment B, installation by
other than authorized Auto-Miser dealer is not recom-
mended. The installation instructions seen quite
straightforward. The system adjustments require a cali-
brated HC/CO meter and a calibrated vacuum garage.
Installers unfamiliar with the Auto-Miser could run into
trouble with the adjustments but there appears to be no
real problems with the installation procedures. The
Auto-Miser warranty only applies to units installed by
.authorized Auto-Miser.installation agents.
b. Maintenance: The application is unclear whether the fuel
drain check valve drains enough fuel from the vacuum
chamber to avoid prolonged collection.of the heavy ends
of the fuel. If the drainage is insufficient, the porous
pad might encounter plugging problems. If the air inlet
filter to the Auto-Miser is the porous - wick, type mat-
erial then the maintenance instructions are sufficient.
If the two are different the porous-wick type material
may need periodic replacement/ cleaning. In general, the
maintenance instructions appear adequate.
c. Effect of Vehicle Emissions (non regulated): The ex-
planation given by the applicant appears to be adequate.
d. Safety of the Device: The only safety problem evident
from the design description would involve a defective
anti-backfire valve and subsequent backfires. Such an
event could cause an explosion.
-------
Durability is also questionable. The applicant supplied
little durability data and has only a 90 day warranty for
damages caused by the Auto-Miser. While there is no
apparent reason why the device is unsafe, there is no
data to show that the device is perfectly safe.
Emission and Fuel Economy Test Results;
1. The Brigham Young University testing procedure is
quite different from the Federal Test Procedure and
from other laboratory accepted methods of measuring
for emissions-and fuel economyv After discussing
the test procedures with Dr. Germane it appears
that:
a. Fuel measurements were taken by a weighing
method for the Auto-Miser and a turbine flow-
meter for the normal fuel carburetor.
b. The test involved a simulated cold start, raw
analysis, modal LA-4 type test.
c. No inertia was simulated for deceleration
modes. The dynamometer was attached by an over
speed-type clutch.
d. It was not known how ttte idle CO and engine
speed compared to factory specifications. The
engine parameters were not adjusted in the
installation of the Auto-Miser.
e. Dr. Germane felt that the increase in fuel
economy was not due to the added vaporization
of fuel but that the engine, adjusted to sea
level specifications, was running very rich at
their 4000 ft. elevation laboratory and that
the Auto-Miser worked as an air bleed device to
lean out the air/fuel mixture. He stated that
similar results could be achieved by calibra-
tion of the fuel/air ratio of the carburetor to
a leaner mixture.
2. The summary of Urban/Highway Driving Comparisons;
This set of data consists of notarized statements
claiming fuel economy improvements from installation
of the Auto-Miser. Because testing is on-road
observed fuel economy under non-laboratory con-
ditions this data is not as strong as FTP data.
Phone calls to verify the notarized statements found
two disconnected numbers.
-------
10
The EG&G Automotive Research Inc. Test Results;
These test results appear to be valid FTP
results. Three vehicles were tested with and
without the Auto-Miser. If any adjustments
were needed to install the device, another test
sequence was run. Duplicate test sequences
were run. A summary of the test data is given
below:
This data shows a variety of results. For HC
emissions, the Pinto and Chevette showed a
marked_.improvement while the Fairmont showed a
HC penalty when compared with the adjusted
data. For CO, all three vehicles demonstrated
a marked improvement. The NOx values stayed
relatively constant. The fuel economy figures,
both FTP and HFET, show no significant increase
or decrease.

16. Conclusions of EPA Evaluation:
It is the overall conclusion that this device is not of bene-
fit to the nation as a fuel economy device. The only testing
performed in accordance with the Federal Test Procedures and
Highway Fuel Economy Test were those run by EG&G. The results
of these tests showed no statistically significant improvement
in fuel economy but did show a 12% to 40% reduction in CO
emissions. Thus, it appears that the Auto-Miser may reduce CO
emissions but has little effect on fuel economy. The data
submitted -withtheapplication does not substantiate any
claims made about the Auto-Miser's fuel economy benefits.
Claims of 12-40% reduction in CO emissions can be substan-
tiated by the test data. Because the data does not show any
fuel economy benefits the overall conclusion is that there is
no need for the EPA to design a test program to further test
the device and that publication of this analysis and con-
clusion fulfills the requirements of Section 511 of the Energy
Policy and Conservation Act.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Vaporized gasoline mixed with the gasoline mist
and air supplied by the carburetor will improve
ignition of the total mixture and more complete
combustion in the engine rather than in the
exhaust system.
As a result, build up of residue in the combus-
tion chamber is reduced, which prolongs spark
plug, valve and ring life. This reduction in cylinder
deposits reduces pre-combustion "ping" and the
build-up of octane requirements.
RTUEtSAVtNGfSYSTHI
SYSTEM OPERATION
The entire system is vacuum operated with the
vacuum source taken at the Positive Crankcase
Ventilation (PCV) valve hose. This vacuum is used
to draw gasoline and air into a vaporizing chamber.
The gasoline is vaporized and mixed with air in the
vaporizing chamber and drawn into the engine
through the hose between the PCV valve and base
of the carburetor.
The gasoline is taken from the fuel supply line
to the engine fuel pump (suction side) through a
filter and drawn into the vaporizing chamber. The
amount of fuel is controlled by a float and valve
in the chamber.
A porous pad in the bottom of the vaporizing
chamber is immersed in this fuel.
Air is drawn into the vaporizing chamber
through a filter and into the vaporizing pad where
it produces vaporized gasoline. The amount of air
and the vacuum in the chamber.is controlled by an
air inlet control screw located under the air filter
retaining cap screw.
The mixture of vaporized gasoline and air is
drawn into the vapor supply hose through an anti-
backfire check valve and flow control adjusting
screw. The amount of vapor delivered to the engine
is controlled by this adjusting screw.
A spring loaded disc valve is located at the
bottom of the vaporizing chamber. This is a one-
way drain valve permitting only a small amount of
fuel to be drained from the unit when the engine
stops. The spring force (fixed) pre-determines the
amount of fuel drained back into the fuel line. The
purpose of this action is to provide a fresh supply
of gasoline for vaporizing each time the engine is
started. The spring-loading also prevents any back-
flow of fuel into the vaporizing chamber if the
vehicle is parked with the fuel tank above the
chamber.
SYSTEM CONTROL
Since the operation of the "system is vacuum
actuated, the amount of vacuum and flow is
controlled by the vapor adjustment screw and inlet
air adjustment screw. Both these adjustments are
made at installation and should not be changed.
The purpose of the vapor adjustment screw is to
match the vapor flow from the unit to the amount
of vacuum available from the engine. The larger
the engine, the more flow from the unit. Also this
adjustment is made to limit the amount of vacuum
taken from the engine so as not to adversely effect
the PCV valve operation.
The air inlet adjustment screw controls the
amount of air taken into the vaporizing chamber
which in turn determines the vacuum in the
chamber.. This adjustment serves several purposes:
1. "'Amount of vacuum in'the chamber deter-
mines the vaporizing action.
2. Vacuum in the chamber determines amount
of force available to lift fuel from the fuel
line into the vaporizing chamber.
3. Vacuum has an effect on the buoyancy of
the float; therefore on the fuel level.
PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
This system requires the following vehicle
configurations to exist before attempting
installation:
1. Carburetor NOT fuel injection or diesel.
2. Engine-mounted fuel pump NOT tank-
mounted fuel pump.
3. PCV valve.
With the engine at operating temperature,
connect and calibrate an emissions analyzer and
record emissions at idle and at approximately
2500 RPM. Check for lean misfire due to vacuum
leaks, carburetor malfunction, electrical misfire
and timing. Adjust and correct as necessary to
vehicle manufacturer's specifications. These
specifications can be found at various locations
under the hood. Check PCV valve for clean appear-
ance and proper operation. (Refer to "Trouble
Shooting") If any doubt of valve condition, replace.
If used over 10,000 miles, replace with OEM
specified parts.
Check hoses to and from fuel pump for tight
connections and hose condition. Locate suction
line from fuel tank and determine vapor chamber
mounting location as close to fuel pump as possible.
PRE-INSTALLATION UNIT ASSEMBLY
Included in the "AUTO-MISER" packaging is a
round AUTOMATIC DRAIN VALVE. This valve
has a 1/8" NPT fitting on one end and a 1/4"
barbed fitting on the other. This is to be installed
into the fitting provided on the bottom of the vapoi
chamber. Removal of the red Caplug on drain
valve and seal caps is required.

fuel inlet elbow on top of vapor chamber.
NOTE: Be certain open end of 1/4"
fuel supply hose is plugged.
b. Remove screw and cap from top of
inlet air filter to provide access to
vacuum adjustment screw.
c. With engine running, close (turn clock-
wise) vacuum adjustment screw until a
vacuum reading of 2" minimum to 2 1/2"
maximum is observed.
NOTE: This vacuum reading is required
to insure, proper fuel level and vaporiza-
tion. An accurate vacuum gauge is a
MUST.
d. Disconnect vacuum gauge, remove plug
from fuel supply hose and connect hose
to chamber inlet fuel elbew. -DST-ncii';

vacuum will be necessary after 3-5 min.
idle time. Emissions will be erratic for a
few minutes while chamber fills with
fuel.
SYSTEM ADJUSTMENTS
Allow engine to idle several minutes to reach
operating temperature and fill vapor chamber with
fuel. During this period the engine speed will
increase due to the vaporization of fuel starting
to occur in the vapor chamber.
Connect a calibrated emissions analyzer and
observe hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide
(C.O.). They will vary as chamber fills. When
emissions are steady, the chamber has filled-and
adjustment may be.made.
1. Adjust carburetor idle mixture screw(s)
for lowest hydrocarbon (HC) reading
without a lean misfire.
CAUTION: On vehicles with catalytic
converters a lean misfire may occur even
with low HC reading. Look for an even,
smooth idle as well as low HC reading.
2. Readjust idle speed to vehicle manu-
facturer's specifications shown on
emission data/tune up label located under
the hood in the engine compartment.
3. Record emissions at idle and at approxi-
mately 2500 RPM before and after
system installation and save for record
purposes.
4. Final adjustment is to recheck position
of the vapor chamber. The chamber
should be positioned so the fuel inlet is
either right or left when facing the front
of the vehicle. The vapor control valve
and inlet air filter should be parallel
with the center line of the vehicle and
the fuel inlet elbow to the right or left
toward the side(s) of the vehicle. This
assures proper float/fuel valve cDeration
under heavy braking or acceleration
conditions.

Dear Randy: " =--
This letter will report the results of tests conducted with the
Auto Miser at Brigham Young University on May 19 and 21, 1979 with
the Department of Mechanical Engineering's computer-controlled engine
test cell.
Tests were run with and without the device with the EPA Urban
Dynamometer Driving Schedule. A 3000 pound vehicle with a three speed
transmission was simulated for the cycle. The parameters and their
values which were used for the simulation are presented on the attached
sheet. Previous testing with this particular vehicle and the EPA cycle
showed the accuracy to be well within the limits prescribed in Appendix
I(b), Chapter I, Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Addi-
tionally, the reproduciblHty of the cycle from test to test was within
1% for overall average engine speed and load. Engine speed, dynamometer
torque, fuel flow, and exhause emissions (NOX, HC, and CO with Beckman
NDIR analyzers) were measured and recorded every half second during the
tests. Prior to the tests, the engine idle screws were adjusted for
the minimum CO and HC exhaust concentrations.
The results for the EPA urban cycle tests are presented below as
average values for the complete cycle.
With Device Without Device
Brake thermal efficiency (BTE) 0.01649 0.01469
Fuel Flow (pounds/hr) 6.339* 7.116
NOX (ppm) 471 530
HC (ppm) 273 296

The Auto Miser device produced a 12.25% improvement in thermal
efficiency, with a corresponding 10.92% decrease in fuel consumption,
All exhaust emissions concentrations were lower with the device:
NOX was down 11.13%, HC was down 7.77%, and CO was 12.43% lower.

Summary of Urban/Highway Driving Comparisons
As part of the applicant's product evaluation in day to day
driving conditions, the below listed vehicles were used. In each
case the application ofthe-systenr' was made af ter~*a requested
3000 miles of driving were recorded to provide a base-line for
comparisons.
In each case the vehicle was taken off the street and emissions
taken with an emission analyzer typical of that in use in automotive
repair shops. The system was installed without any changes to the
vehicle such as a complete tune up. The only change made was the .
installation of the system and emissions recorded after installation.
The vehicle was then returned to the owner for continuing recording
of fuel consumption.

The applicant contracted this facility to conduct tests which
would be in accordance with the Fe_deral Test Procedure. Additional
tests were conducted tcTmeasure" emissions before and after the
catalytic converter to evaluate the effect of the system on emissions
with and without the influence of the catalytic converter.
The criteria used in selecting these particular vehicles was to
provide not only various size engines but also new versus used vehicles.
Since the EG&G facility is located approximately 300 miles frotm
the applicant, the vehicles fuel consumption was measured driving to
EG&G without the system and return with the system. The following-
comparisons were noted under highway driving conditions with air
conditioning in use, following same route and using the same fuel.

TEST PROCEDURE
In accordance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Emission Control Device Evaluation Test Policy, a proposed test scope was
generated by EG&G Automotive Research, Inc. (EG&G-AR) and submitted to
Mr. Randall Johnson, President of Auto-Miser International, for his approval.
After Mr. Johnson had reviewed and approved the test scope, it was forwarded
to Mr. Ralph Stahman, Emissions Control Technology Division of the EPA, for
that agency's review and comments.
On May 30, 1979, Mr. F. Peter Hutchins, Project Manager of EPA Technology
Assessment and Evaluation Branch responded to the proposed scope and made
some suggested changes in a letter to Mr. Johnson with a carbon copy to Mr.
Albert Naegelin, Business Cell Manager.of EG&G-AR's Power Systems Research
and Development Chassis Dynamometer Laboratory.
*
These suggested changes were incorporated in the test program and copies of
both the original test scope and Mr. Hutchins' comments are included as

fuel filter was also installed. During the check the curb idle speed
was found to be high and erratic. Numerous attempts were made to adjust
the idle speed, but it would not remain steady. Mr. Allin's instructions
were to adjust the idle mixture screw three-fourths of a turn richer
(out) . This was accomplished and the curb and fast idle RPMs were reset
to manufacturer's specifications. Both vacuum control screws on the
device cannister were turned to verify proper operation of the device
by Mr. Allin. When proper operation was verified, the screws were re-
turned to verify proper operation of the device by Mr. Allin. When
proper operation was verified the screws were returned to their ori-
ginal settings. No instruments or vacuum gauges were used to complete
this check. Because of the numerous changes and repairs made to this
vehicle, the results from tests 03 and 04 were considered questionable
and additional tests were required.
10. Performed single test using Federal Test Procedure 40 CFR, Part 86 and
40 CFR, Part 400 to evaluate vehicle emissions and determine city and
highway fuel economies (Attachment 4).
After Mr. Allin reviewed the results of this test, he instructed EG&G-AR
personnel to return the idle mixture screw to its original position
(three-fourths of a turn leaner (in)). No change in curb or fast idle
RPMs occurred.
11. Test numbers 06 and 07 were aborted due to wrong inertia load setting.
12. Performed duplicate test (number 08 and 10 - 09 was aborted due to load
selector switch being in the wrong mode at start of test) using Federal
Test Procedure 40 CFR, Part 86 and 40 CFR, Part 400 to evaluate vehicle
emissions and determine city and highway fuel economies (Attachment 4).
13. Performed driveability evaluation (Attachment 5).
14. Disconnected the device from the engine.
15. Performed duplicate tests using Federal Test Procedure 40 CFR, Part 86
and 40 CFR, Part 400 to evaluate vehicle emissions and determine city
and highway fuel economies (Attachment 4).
*
16. Due to a misunderstanding in the work schedule, this vehicle was returned
to Auto-Miser before the driveability evaluation was accomplished.

Dear Mr. Johnson:
This is in response to your May 18, 1979 letter seeking EPA evaluation
and approval of the test project which is planned for the evaluation of
your device. The EPA will comment and make suggestions on the proposed
plan. We cannot, however, approve this plan.
The following comments are made without any knowledge of the operational
characteristics of the device and, therefore, without any way of anticipating
its effect on test results and test variability.
a. As these are the first set of FTP and HFET tests which are to
be performed on the device, the overall scope of the test project
(3 vehicles with duplicate baseline, device and parameter adjusted,
if required, tests) appears to be a reasonable compromise between
cost and size of the data base.
b. I cannot comment on what vehicles should be selected because
of lack of information on either the device or its anticipated
sales applicability.
c. EG&G must follow manufacturer procedures for setting idle
air/fuel ratio and must record levels. If vehicles are catalyst
and/or air pump equipped, tailpipe readings do not adequately
identify carburetor settings. ,_ __
d. If any vehicle manufacturer settings or specification of the
basic vehicle are in any way altered when the device is installed,
the vehicle must be tested in this parameter adjusted mode. This
set of tests permits identification of the effects of the parameter
adjustment separately from the effects of the device. All of these
-------
77
(if any) adjustments must be recorded. When the vehicles are
I returned to EG&G following device installation, EG&G must inspect
and record all parameters as scheduled in the baseline inspection.
Ie. The same fuel must be used in all tests of each vehicle. Fuel
used must be appropriate for the vehicle in which it is used.
. Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the "EPA Retrofit and Emission
} Control Device Evaluation Test Policy" and the "Application Format for
1 Use with Fuel Economy Retrofit Device Evaluation under Section 511 of
the Energy Policy ajid Conservation Act".

THEORY OF OPERATION
- Vaporized gasoline mixed with the gasoline mist
"Slnd air supphed by the carburetor will improve
ignition of the total mixture and more complete
Combustion m the engine rather than in the
Iphaust system.
; As a result, build up of residue in the combus-
tion chamber is reduced, which prolongs spark
j-Jlug, valve and ring life. This reduction in cylinder
/deposits reduces pre-combustion "ping" and the
build-up of octane requirements.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The entire system js vacuum operated with the
vacuum source taken at the Positive Crankcase
Ventilation (PCV) valve hose. This vacuum is used
to draw gasoline and air into a vaporizing chamber.
The gasoline is vaporized and mixed with air in the
vaporizing chamber and drawn into the engine
through the hose between the PCV valve and base
of the carburetor.
The gasoline is taken from the fuel supply line
to the engine fuel pump (suction side) through a
filter and drawn into the vaporizing chamber. The
amouซปt--of fuel is controlled by a float and valve
in the chamber.
A porous pad in the bottom of the vaporizing
chamber is immersed in this fuel.
Air i? drawn into' the vaporizing chamber
through a filter and into the vaporizing pad where
it'produces vaporized gasoline. The amount of air
and the vacuum in the chamber is controlled by an
air inlet control screw located under the air filter
retaining cap screw.
The mixture of vaporized gasoline and air is
drawn into the vapor supply hose through an anti-
backfire check valve and flow control adjusting
screw. The amount of vapor delivered to the engine
is controlled by this adjusting screw.
A spring loaded disc valve is located at the
bottom ot the vaporizing chamber. This is a one-
way drain valve permitting only a small amount of
fuel to be drained from the unit when the engine
stops. The spring force (fixed) pre-determines the
amount of fuel drained back into the fuel line. The
purpose of this action is to provide a fresh supply
of gasoline for vaporizing each time the engine is
started. The spring-loading also prevents any back-
flow of fuel into the vaporizing chamber if the
vehicle is parked with the fuel tank above the
chamber.
SYSTEM CON t,ujL
Since the operation of the system is vacuum
actuated, the amount of vacuum and flow is
controlled by the vapor adjustment screw and inlet
air adjustment screw. Botli these adjustments are
made at installation and should not be changed.
The purpose of the vapor adjustment screw is to
match the vapor flow from the unit to the amount
of vacuum avoil.iWf from the enyine. The larger
the engine, the mQrซ flow fram the ynit. Also this
adjustment is matte to limit the amt-iutU of vacuum
taken from thfe t.Migine so as not to adversely effect
the PCV valve operation.
The air inlet adjustment screw controls the
amount of air taken into the vaporizing chamber
which in turn determines the vacuum in the
chamber. This adjustment serves several purposes:
1. Amount of vacuum in'the chamber deter-
mines the v/aporizing action.
2. Vacuum in the chamber determines amount
of force available to lift fuel from the fuel
line into the vaporizing chamber.
3. Vacuum has an effect on the buoyancy of
the float; therefore on the fuel level.
PRE-INSTALLAT1ON CHECKS
This system requires the following vehicle
configurations to exist before attempting
installation:
1, Carburetor NOT fuel injection or diesel.
2. Engine-mounted fuel pump NOT tank-
mounted fuel pump.
3. PCV valve.
With the engine at operating temperature.
connect and calibrate an emissions analyzer and
record emissions at idle and at approximately
2500 RPM. Check for lean misfire due to vacuum
leaks, carburetor malfunction, electrical misfire
and timing. Adjust and correct as necessary to
vehicle manufacturer's specifications. These
specifications can be found at various locations
under the hood. Check PCV valve for clean appear-
ance and proper operation, (Refer to "Trouble
Shooting") if any doubt of valve condition, replace.
If used over 10,000 miles, replace with OEM
specified parts.
Check hoses to and from fuel pump for tight
connections and hose condition. Locate suction
line from fuel tank and determine vapor chamber
mounting location as close to fuel pump as possible.
PRE-INSTALLATIQN UNIT ASSEMBLY
Included in the "AUTO-MISER" packaging is a
round AUTOMATIC DRAIN VALVE. This valve
has a 1/8" NPT fitting on one end and a 1/4"
barbed fitting on the other. This is to be installed
into the fitting provided on the bottom of the vapor
chamber. Removal of the red Caplug on drain
valve and seai caps is required.

punch two 1/8" diameter holes for
mounting screws.
Caution: Vapor chamber must be vertical
and fuel inlet elbow must be positioned
toward outside of the vehicle. Also be
certain vapor chamber and hoses will not
be affected in the event of broken belts.
Mount vapor chamber in wire support.
Route 1/4" fuel supply hose to the fuel
inlet elbow on top. of the vapor chamber.
Leave room in hose routing to clear
existing hoses or vacuum lines and cut to
length at fuel inlet elbow.
Cut hose between 1/4" x 1/4" x 1/4"
tee previously installed and fuel inlet
elbow connection for installation of
fuel filter. Locate filter so it will be close

c. Connect a well calibrated vacuum gauge
to the remaining 1/4" connection on the
3/8" x 1/4" x 3/8" tee.
d. Remove black, seal cap from top of vapor
control valve and be certain vapor adjust-
ment screw is closed.
e. Start engine; allow to reach operating
temperature.
f. Observe vacuum reading - normally be-
tween 16" and 20".
Caution: If less than 16" of vacuum is
observed prior to adjusting the
vapor control valve, the engine
may be in a marginal condition
for the installation. Any
vacuum leak should be
corrected or out of balance
idle mixture screws adjusted
before continuing with the
installation.
g. With engine running at idle, open vapor
adjustment screw (turn counterclockwise)
until a 4" reduction in vacuum reading is
reached. Example: If the original vacuum
reading is 20", open vapor adjusting
until vacuum drops to 16".
h. Remove vacuum gauge and tee and
connect vapor hose to vapor control
valve using green hose clamp.

Vapor Chamber Vac/.-. ~ Adjustment 90
a. Connect well calibrated vacuum gauge to
fuel inlet elbow on top of vapor chamber.
NOTE: Be certain open end of 1/4"
fuel supply hose is plugged.
b. Remove screw and cap from top of
inlet air filter to provide access to
vacuum adjustment screw.
c. With engine running, close (turn clock-
wise) vacuum adjustment screw until a
vacuum reading of 2" minimum to 2 1/2"
maximum is observed.
NOTE: This vacuum reading is required
to insure, proper fuel level and vaporiza-
tion. An accurate vacuum gauge is a
MUST.
d. Disconnect vacuum gauge, remove plug
from fuel supply hose and connect hose
to chamber inlet fuel elbow.Do -not~~- - r
damp at this point as a recheck of
vacuum will be necessary after 3-5 min.
wfle time. Emissions will be erratic for a
few minutes while chamber fills with
fuel.
SYSTEM ADJUSTMENTS
Allow engine to idle several minutes to reach
operating temperature and fill vapor chamber with
fuel. During this period the engine speed will
increase due to the vaporization of fuel starting
to occur in the vapor chamber.
Connect a calibrated emissions analyzer and
observe hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide
(C.O.). They will vary as chamber fills. When
emissions are steady, the chamber has filled and
adjustment may be made.
1. Adjust carburetor idle mixture screw(s)
for lowest hydrocarbon (HC) reading
without a lean misfire.
CAUTION: On vehicles with catalytic
converters a lean misfire may occur even
with low HC reading. Look for an even,
smooth idle as well as low HC reading.
2. Readjust idle speed to vehicle manu-
facturer's specifications shown on
emission data/tune up label located under
the hood in the engine compartment.
3. Record emissions at idle and at approxi-
mately 2500 RPM before and after
system installation and save for record
purposes.
4. Final adjustment is to recheck position
of the vapor chamber. The chamber
should be positioned so the fuel inlet is
either right or left when facing the front
of the vehicle. The vapor control valve
and inlet air filter should be parallel
with the center line of the vehicle and
the fuel inlet elbow to the right or left
toward the sHe(s) of the vehicle. This
assures prooer float/fuel va've operation
undnr heavy braking or acceleration
conditions.
