One such man was Louis Enricht. He boasted that he was able to invent a green colored liquid that when placed in water would make it combustible. In 1916 he demonstrated this to group of reporters. Pouring the contents into a pitcher of water and placing it into the empty gas tank of a car, then starting the car.
The secret of the green liquid he took to his grave, but critics think that the green liquid was a mixture of acetone and liquid acetylene which could run an engine if mixed with water. The problem however was that the water would corrode the engine in the long run. Enrich also said that he mixed prussic acid in the mixture to hide the smell of the “secret ingredient” from oil company employee’s who came disguised as reporters.
The first automobile scam in history enabled Enricht to obtain funds from would-be investors in the form of “good will” money. Henry Ford was said to have been one of the investors interested in his invention.
