Default Re: Dry Ice in your fuel cell?

Someone mentioned cool cans. We used to use them, back when my hair was still brown. I used dry ice and rubbing alky in mine when I had my Jr Stocker. If you have any water in your fuel, you will find it. Freezing it in the fuel line up once. LOL

We can't use cool cans like we used to. I was told there can not be anything in it to cool the fuel while going down the track. Only before the run. Makes that pretty useless. I guess an EFI car could run the fuel pump to circulate fuel through it and back to the fuel cell because of the return line they all use. Then dump it. Dry ice is "before the run", but I don't know that the oficials approve. As mentioned, guys I have seen doing it don't put the cap back on too quick. A fuel cel is vented, not a fuel jug.
