    Anyone ever try injecting oxygen?

    I know what you're saying, and the reason that happens is because the rag itself is being used as the fuel and the oxygen is merely the catalyst that makes the rag burn must faster ( rapid oxidization ) than normally.

    Anyone ever try injecting oxygen?

I would be interested in seeing the effect of injecting it into...

    Leaf spring time

    i got mine done at a big rig leaf shop i think it cost me $120 for 3 more installed Really helped, but stiffened the ride a bit. I heard airbags were the way to go but this was alot cheaper. Ive had about 2000# or more in the back before

    1st Dead Dipaco/DTech PMD ??

    ive had a dtech front mounted for about a year and a half now, no problems ( knock on wood ) but the talks of how they fail even worse than stanadyne have me paranoid!
