[Diy_efi] Liquid Phase Propane Injectors

There is much to be said for an education as well as
for "Ideal Gas Laws"

Off course the correction factors for each gas is different
i.e. the rate of change of pressure with increased temperature
is not equal. And some of the "other stuff" the refineries leave
dissolved in the mix are closer to tar than butene.

This can play havoc with the viscosity and thus the flow rates
per pressure unit are variable once more.

I would suggest that after the tank is fitted to the engine bay
that you also fit a "claymore" under your seat. Not forgetting of
course which way up you point it.

The tank will start to vent vapor to the atmosphere at approx.
350 psi. The temp required is about 85 degrees C. Doing this
in the engine bay would earn you a Darwin Award. The heat
build up in the tank would lead to a distinct hissing noise
followed by a loud pop as the vented gas ignites on contact
with your exhaust manifold. This small inferno should get hot
enough to set  your claymore off. If you are real lucky you will
be ejected through the hole your head makes in the roof.
