My Fuel Consumption Test at Idle in 2008

A normal 2000 cc engine at idle consumes 24 to 26 cc of fuel per minute my test uses approx 50% less.  Each Clip is 8:06 long when my 10ml syringe stops working I am adding an extra 1ml of fuel, you will see my finger on the bottom of the syringe. The engine temp was 45-50 deg C when I started; I let it heat up to a needle width below the higher safe mark, my engine ran for 36 minutes without any cooling fans.  I report Rpm, Temperature by put my hand on the rocker cover during the movie.  The Syringe on the carby is a 25 ml each major mark is 5 ml. I trim the mixture down towards the end
