Yes I thought he was full of shit.
He did a TAFE mechanics course and there is no argueing with him and cars.
I had an arguement with him about a vacuum gauge, I told him when you floor it vacuum increases (goes further into -ives) and he was insisting that no it goes to 0 when floored.
lol at swirling effect...
petrol is INJECTED into the cylinders via injectors, obviously.. im pretty sure older cars with carby's spray fuel into the cyllinders, which he may somehow have thought this was called a spoon effect or something????
The question has been answered...and again for future searches...

Keep any chit chat to teh lounge next time ok fellas.

spoon...some people say is a con job, and i was thinking that the same way...but after i saw the Spoon A class ITR..i have nth to say but...OMG...it just trash an EVO7 on the straight..and it's pulling further and further and further..and..opps...where's the evo7??....
and...the car is using Spoon Spec A cams...soo...i wonder where all the power comes from...hmm...
You should have told him you thought a Spoon Engine is where spoons are used to replace the conrods and pistons of the engine...
So, Spoon is to Honda like Corsa/HSV is to Holden where they buy the block and modify it yeah?
