The Emission Control Technology Division (ECTD) was contacted by the General Services Administration (GSA) concerning a vapor injection device for use with automobile engines. The device is called the Econo-Mist and is a product of the FAP Corporation of Albuquerque, New Mexico. GSA had received information that the Econo-Mist reduced hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions and increased fuel economy. At the request of GSA, ECTD agreed to test the device. A sample of the device was brought to the EPA laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan by FAP Corporation personnel on January 13, 1975.
