I thought some of you might be interested in what the Japs are now developing. Interesting.

it is a good idea and if it can be used in any engine should see performance upgrade's too as your fuel will burn butter

It's an interesting concept and although it's not something we'll see for a good few years yet, in time it may well be something that becomes practical in the future. If it makes for better efficiencies then that can only be a good thing.

Why would you want to burn butter in your engine?

They know when a good thing comes along. My dad works closely with their engineers for Land Rover and Jaguar Engines.
