The Fuelizer is about the simplest invention anybody ever saw to mean so much.
 It consists essentially of a pipe, a chamber and a spark plug. It weighs less than two pounds.
 It is automatically regulated by the varying degree of suction exerted by the engine as the throttle is opened or closed. Not a moving part = not an adjustment anywhere.
