I hate you Glenn, (kiddin) but only because I think you have a valed point.
$50 ? i wounder about the dependability of the electronics.

As far as the oil/gas/Ethanol suppliers... Na, too many people need a car/truck during the winter day's that cant muster a cool ride to work, let alone install a simple EFI.

Now back in the 70's i lived next to an retired army guy whom was an inventor as we called him.
He had a Popular mechanics magazine that he was reading and writing notes on it.
Out of his 3 son's and my 2 younger brothers i was the only one that took an interest.
He made ( laugh if you want, but it did work.. kinda) a Pie Plate sealed top to top (like a UFO) with a ribbed brass hose coming from a fuel canister to the pie plate that set on top of the carburetor.
He told me it vaporized the fuel to create a fume that will create ignition for the car.

Hell, i Dint have a clue at the time what he was doing and he did blow the thing up a few times, but it did work, although it never idled right (high idle).

That's all i really remember about it.
