I have a stupid idea but thats all it is. I would never attempt this and i dont want anyone else to but i wonder what would happen. Ok so you fill the washer fluid tank with gasoline and pop the washer fluid hose off the hood nozzles and connect it to a auxilary vacuum input on the driverside of the intake manifold. Will this poormans nitrous blow you up and catch fire are there any youtube videos of this?
i think the video was taken down several years ago, but some moron tried to do something just like this, and the gas leaked out the washer tank, and the washer motor ignited it, making a bomb out of the tank
Definitely doesn't operate under the same principle of nitrous at all. All you would be doing is making the air/fuel ratio more rich, negatively effecting performance.
Well that makes alot of since. Didnt think about screwing the a/f ratio.
You would be better off squirting soapy water down infront of the tires so you can get a nitrous burnout.

if you really want to do something like this, The thing to do in the old days with manual washer pumps was to fill with alcohol and attach to the carb... Worked for a small gain... used to be done on mustangs and falcons for sure
Lol
Wow, i think ill leave this one to Myth Busters.
Done it in high school with diesel fuel just to make smoke leaving the parking lot after school.
