  One possibly BS selling 'fact' of fuel injection was the consistency of 
the fuel droplets. These perfect drops would take the perfect, or at 
least longer, time to burn, decreasing engine knock, allowing more 
ignition advance, and increasing economy. The logic goes, carbs can't do 
this consistiently, but the high pressured injectors can atomize better. 
Yes. And fully evaporated gasoline 'explodes' rather than 'burns', right? 
  Please- anyone with the scientific answers to this would be apreciated. 
I am afraid of sparking another "wonder-bra-carb-something-for-nothing" 
discussion.
  If this point is true, then to make the most eficcient engine, I should 
be concerned with not leaving gas-spray on the walls of the intake 
manifold, and consider sequential injection.
