  1. No it will not work and those sites offering to sell you plans or ebooks are just a scam that seek to con unsuspecting people out of their hard-earned cash.

    Check the link I've provided and read all the pages on that site that address the concept of running a car on water.

    If you don't believe me, read the news reports on the page in the second link.

    Your brother in-law should save his money and spend it on gas, he'll go a lot further that way and won't risk his engine.


  2. I have seen a couple of u tube videos and believe me looks impressive but there is much more to it. Check them out if you like, however if you are really interested in testing out the technology buy an old car and try it for a while. I mean anything can run on water and a mixture of something but unless you have the right stuff the life expectancy of the engine will be very low.

  3. ya acually any car can run on water.. just add half water and half gass... it run great on my ford F-150!!

    Saves alot of gas

  4. don't you think that if it was possible that some one would have made them selves very rich by making it happen and given the gas prices that it would have been in use by now if it worked? sure if you brake water down by electrolysis you get hydrogen and oxygen but not at a rate suitable to run you to the grocery store.

  5. The car could run on water  if it has an electric current going through it to create Hydrogen, however it needs a lot more money to run because you'll need more energy to create to electric current and its a lot less efficient since you'll need to modify the car into Frankenstein like and on top of that the Hydrogen isn't giving as much energy as gasoline. Not to mention water vapor is an even higher green house gas then CO2 [something they don't tell you] For those reasons we don't use water today,

  6. Yes. Years ago a inventor made a car that ran on water. It was a steam car.

    To convert one today don't thin it is passable

  7. yeah try it, it might work

    hey why the thumbs down?, i was being sarcastic

  8. Well, in water only, I do not know.  With half water, Yes it can! I was actually surprised when I saw the results.  My cousin found an ad at our apartment's laundry facility, which advertised two websites.  I was really excited at first that I started searching online to find out if it was a scam or not (I have been scammed before so I am really cautious).  I started to feel doubt after a while since I kept on reading reviews that said it was a scam.  Another reason why I became skeptical was because in the instructions it says to use glue and I thought, 'That is impossible! The glue will most likely melt with the heat!'.

      Although, even after my warnings, my cousin took a chance and bought the highest price e-book that was ninety seven total. He considers that the more it cost the better information it must have, although, personally I do not believe that.

      His 2007 Nissan Titan milleage improved, before it was around 13 MPG and it went up to around 28 MPG.  It was not exactly what was expected, since he wanted to get at least 3X's the mileage.  Yet, it is good, compared to before.

      My brother tried it as well, although it was from a different website.  He got it for a cheaper price, sixty seven dollars.  He did have some problems at first, since he couldn't get it to work the first time because of a simple misunderstanding.  My brother has a 2002 Toyota Carolla which now runs a little over 50 miles per gallon.

      Just know that I have not heard of a car running on pure water.  There are ways that can make cars use both water and gasoline to expand the miles two-three times more.  Yet, be aware that most of the time, you might not get exactly 3xs the milage.  So if you do try to convert your car or truck then expect around two times, just so you won't be disappointed.  

      Oh, also...anyone that advertises  in EBay or YouTube, I would be careful to buy anything.  Also, don't trust anybody that offers any information for a really low price or for a very high price.  SCAM!!! You should not pay more than 100, since you can obtain such information for less.  

      Hopefully this can be helpful and if your brother in-law does try it, then perhaps, you might then be able to tell us your experience.

      Below I have put the websites that were in the ad.  They should provide some information on what to expect and so on.

  9. Yes - where have you been?

    You have been able to do this for years.

    Introducing hydrogen into an internal combustion engine means you can burn hydrocarbon based fuels more efficiently, which means you can burn less fuel for the same power output - hence the saving on fuel.

    To run the engine efficiently, precise control of the fuel/air mix is required as you have to lean out the hydrocarbon fuel/air mix during normal running, or richen the mixture when the fuel/air mix begins to pre-ignite - easy with today's computerized fuel injection systems which make use of anti-knock sensors (which pick up any pre-ignition), temperature sensors all over the engine, and exhaust gas sensors.

    Among other things components heat the fuel line so the fuel isn't cold; it also has a box for tweaking the onboard computer that controls the fuel injectors to compensate for the additional gas volume of the water vapor.

    Easy Huh?


  10. it will if you have a steam engine.

  11. it can work but dont mix gas and water.it will not work mixed.

  12. If it was possible to switch to water instead of gas, EVERYONE WOULD!

    It sounds like he is pulling your leg.

    Honda does have a car that runs on hydrogen, the H in H2O, but they start at $100,000.

  13. No  

  14. NONONONONONONONONO.do not add water to your car unless you have a big wallet for the repairs.the patent for that was bought back in the 20s from packard.it will never come back thanks to the oil companies that bought said patent.the things you see on the internet will only lighten your wallet.PLEASE DO NOT ADD WATER TO YOUR CAR NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS.PLEASE.

  15. It actually runs on water and gas. You can get do-it-yourself conversion kit at

    http://retirerichguide.com/CarOnWater.ht...

    It took me around $50 to buy parts and maybe half a day to install.

    Works great.

    Good luck :-)

  16. yes but your car will break down after and things may not work after
