This has gotta be the stupidest thing since those things you put in your air intake hose to make the air swirl. Just makes zero sense. Negative sense even.
I knew a guy in the late 70s or early 80s. He put beer in the tank for one of the Holley water injection things, that put a small stream of water into the carb. Remember them things? He was getting alky injection he would swear by it.
