Speaking of cars…

In the 1970s my father did something to the engine of his Torana. Like fuel injector sysyem.

Something that he pressed a button on the console or steering column to activate. It added something to the fuel system and gave a boost in power. He rigged up the device in his workshop, he didn’t buy it otc.

I remember thinking – “hE’s gOnNa bLoW uS aLl uP!!!!” but it didn’t.

He worked at GMH in Pagewood as a boilermaker and invented a few things that they implemented on the factory floor. I’m pretty sure he didn’t invent a fuel injector system, just made his own.

Quite possibly water methanol injection or perhaps nitrous oxide injection.
