       | Delivers on the title, well done. Half the time on HN I am
       | disappointed to find that I have mistakenly clicked on an article

       | to make me think I'm about to read something more interesting.

         | experimenting with fuel injectors and PWM (maybe into a small
         | reservoir to smooth out the flow).
