Wouldn't want to inconvenience anyone by making them fill up with gas AND water.

Similarly, you can eliminate much of the nitric oxide and other damaging chemicals by mixing diesel with a bit of propane. Propane injection has been used by tuners for years to make their diesels go really fast.

So why don't we do that? Well, because it is more convenient to replace diesel exhaust controls (the blue liquid) every 6 months than it is to add propane every fill-up, despite it being a better for the environment and better for the engine.
