How can I convert my car to run exclusively on Hydrogen?

Question

I have a 1999 Lexus GS 400....I want to know what tweaks or modifications I should do to my car so that It can take Hydrogen... I want to know what devices I should switch out so that it all works seamlessly.

And I understand all the hoopla about hydrogen being very explosive and how it takes a lot of energy to create hydrogen (at least by advertised methods i.e. Stan Meyers).

But I just want to know what devices or modifications I would need to make.

Answer 1

Off the top of my head:

- Replace the fuel tank with a high pressure cylinder.

- Replace the filler pipe and the pipe that delivers petrol to the engine.

- All of the stuff that prepares and mixes the petrol/air mixture needs to be replaced with a valve to control the hydrogen/air mixture.

- You may find that the hydrogen burns too quickly and destroys your engine.

- I don't know whether hydrogen works best in a spark ingition or compression ignition engine (this would determine whether you start off with a petrol or diesel engine).
