Charles Nelson Pogue
Charles Nelson Pogue (15 September 1897 - 1985) was a Canadian mechanic and inventor who in the 1930s filed a series of US patents for a miracle carburetor (sometimes called the ''Winnipeg carburetor'') that would enable a car to attain 200 mpg, and described as a vapourising or sometimes a catalytic carburetor. But the 1936 (or 1932?) announcement was not followed by any verifiable tests or demonstrations.〔(Snopes.com: 200mpg carburetor )〕
The carburetor is described in several publicly available patents which have now expired, and there is no evidence that the patents were ever suppressed or that the rights were bought up by the oil industry, the motor industry or the government. The patents included: , , & .
A recent (2003) version of the story from Cornwall, England has the original blueprints supposedly turning up in a secret compartment in a retired mechanic’s toolbox. The story claims that the Toronto Stock Exchange “was rocked” in the 1930s (although no date or year is given), and that Pogue was given a job as manager of a factory (unnamed) making oil filters for the motor industry.〔("Oil Industry Suppressed Plans for 200-mpg Car" )〕

Tom Ogle (1953–1981) followed on from Charles Pogue with claims to have made a water-fuelled or water-injected automobile. He is the subject of the 2008 film Gashole.
