Abstract
Generally there is provided a LPG fuel delivery system having a tank containing a thermally conductive mesh filler adhered to the tank walls by a thermally conductive adhesive. A vapor draw fuel line is fed from the tank to a pressure regulator and then to the carburetor of the engine. The tank apparatus mesh insert is a metal lattice formed from a thin aluminium sheet by a slitting process, where the slits are expanded to provide openings with transverse sides. When the sheet is rolled or combined with other sheets, it functions to thermally contact the adjacent layers and the tank walls. Ambient heat absorbed by the tank wall is tansferred through the adhesive to the filler and is distributed to the fuel to cause a consistant high vaporization and generate pressure.
