Petrol vapor wouldn't do much for rubber inner tubes either.

So, apparently, does the cat. Not sure who asks him though.

These devices do not put petrol vapor into the tube. They pump air that is sucked into the cylinder via the valve on the device - if anything, on the inlet stroke, since the external air pressure is a lot higher than the inlet manifold pressure with the throttle closed (idling), air will pass from the cylinder into the inlet manifold via the inlet valve. And, of course, when the piston goes down on the power stroke, air can only come from the valve on the pump device.

Was in Paris one year having breakfast at a shared table with an American, who believed Australia was on the Continent next to Switzerland. NOT AUSTRIA YOU FOOL! No wonder many of them travel a lot as they would have plenty of School Holidays while not learning Geography.

Then I was lectured behind an open hand about Australians eating part of our Coat of Arms. They only know half the story. I wonder how many Bald Eagles get done?

Bald Eagles have been hunted onto the endangered list, purely for sport. Americans are highly nationalistic but lag behind on patriotism.
