Hydrogen (HHO) Hybrid Vehicles

[Hamilton]

I had the priveledge of working with a former employer today...we were
remodeling a Dairy Queen here in Murrieta. He showed me his homemade
hydrogen generator. He also showed me a little device called a Scan Guage (http://greenfuellabs.com/hydrogen/scanguage2.html)
That tells him exactly how much fuel his burning in real time as well as tracks
current and previous driving details about mileages etc. Whether or not
he is driving in town traffic or on the highway. Having seen this first hand,
and knowing he wasn't selling me anything but kick to the jaw of the oil companies
I realized if I had seen this website on my own accord it would appear as a
scam and I would have closed out of it in a heartbeat and never looked back.
He said he had some bugs to work out but so far it has improved his F250
4 door full utility bed work truck from 16mpg to approx 22-23 mpg highway.
Check it out for your self and look this HHO up on youtube. http://greenfuellabs.com/hydrogen/scanguage2.html
I plan on making my own in the near future. :)

you can accomplish basically the same thing with something a lot cheaper and lower tech - a manifold vacuum gauge. Keep the reading as high as possible and your mileage will improve. Of course, you'll have to learn how to drive all over again if you're like most of us. :yeah:

or you could get smaller cars

My old boss mentioned a very noticeable horsepower increase. My Truck
has the 5.3 liter..Chev silverado v8. I would like the added hp, not to mention
the fuel economy. I looked close at what he had built and it all looks simple
to do really. Especially if you are handy under the hood. I read a bit more
about how this works. When you tell the newer vehicles computer that the
vehicle needs less gas it will send less gas to the motor. Thats where you
will spend more than the $50 they claim you can build this for. But, if you
spend even 2-3 hundred bucks and cut your yearly fuel costs by $1k or
more, I feel it would be worth it.

Jim, I saw a test on a smaller car on youtube. The guy took his mileage
from 35 mpg up to 48 mpg. :uhh: Besides, I need a TRUCK lol...I haul lots
of tools and deliver tile. In fact I could really stand to own a stronger truck
than the one I currently own.

Jack,

Like sandbagger said, buy the scanguage first and relearn driving. It alone will make a difference for your mileage.

I have read several things stating the HHO isn't good for the engine, once burned, one of the by-products is water which doesn't do good things to the inside of the engine and exhaust.

[bbcamp]

Water is also a by-product of burning gasoline, or any hydro-carbon fuel for that matter. High cylinder and exhaust temps keep the water in vapor form until it exits the tailpipe. Stainless steel, aluminized or galvanized exhaust systems deal with the times when your vehicle isn't warmed up enough to completely vaporize the water.

[Hamilton]

Yup, in fact the HHO burns alot more efficiently than gas. Its why it adds HP and
MPG to your gasoline engine. I have seen some videos on you tube, one
a guy mentions getting some sputter on the freeway. He acknowledged
he had to make sure the water that creates the HHO needed to have
a trap, which he would make and use in his second vid. This was also the
guy who took the 35 mpg car up to 48 mpg.

[sandbagger]

in fact the HHO burns alot more efficiently than gas. HUH? :scratch:

water doesn't burn. It doesn't even oxidize. I can't think of a single good thing water does for a vehicle fuel / combustion system. :shake:

[Crestone Tile]

Hamilton is right, and water is not the fuel ... hydrogen is. It's not like pumping water into the cylinders.

Hamilton,

HHO is a good thing if done properly. I have a friend back in New York who has been messing with it for over a year now. Unfortunately, most of the products being sold on the internet are BS. There are many little things that can make a big difference how the system performs or even fails. Good luck with your research.

Maybe I am a skeptic. Car companies are spending millions to develop more efficient cars but for $50 I can make my truck see an almost 30% increase in fuel economy and get more power! I guess I just don't understand why everyone is wasting time with batteries when water is so safe and efficient?

What am I missing?
