Not exactly a carburetor only solution--but, it it is 58+ times more efficient than the 250 mpg carburetor only solution--so don't be too sure what is & isn't possible.

Sir Loin: I've heard of others such as the Poque Darby but big oil gets hold of all the patents and kills them

Fractured fairy tale:

ghostgeek: I guess Tesla's go with a bang.

kittybobo34: one flaw in those batteries, with all the power packed into them, makes quite a bang when it fails, Like those hoverboard batteries, that aren't allowed on planes anymore.

ghostgeek: Could be fun, so long as you're not sat in the thing when it blows.

ghostgeek: This lockdown is a killer. With clear skies the temperature is going to zoom.

kittybobo34: Well the economy is slowly coming back, traffic is picking up, the sky isn't falling yet.

ghostgeek: Traffic is picking up? Isn't that going to melt the ice caps and drown the polar bears?

kittybobo34: Probably, The polar bears will become an extinct species in the long run. They are too well adapted to an environment that is going away.

ghostgeek: Satellite images released by NASA and the European Space Agency show a dramatic reduction in nitrogen dioxide emissions in major Chinese cities and northern Italy between January and February.

kittybobo34: Ether way , I doubt the total population will survive the coming calamities, 8 billion now

ghostgeek: With a bit of processing, those surplus humans should make a welcome addition to the diet.

kittybobo34: Soylent Green IS People !!!

ghostgeek: So you watched the film as well?

kittybobo34: Yep,, there is an old lady in this body,, but I have always been a sci fi fan

kittybobo34: Fft,,, they were very slow reproducers, the changing climate, plus human hunting seems to have driven them to extinction. The last of the mammoths (pygmy island versions) died out just 4000 years ago... apparently they were good swimmers and survived Noahs flood..

zeffur: Or their kind was on the ark.
