WATER FUEL ! SO WHY DO WE NEED OIL? MONEY! Isn't there a crime here somewhere ??? Whom do we report it to

Question

In 1965 I saw our new vehicle for all military services at the US Army Transportation School in Fort Eustis, VA. The fuel was water. In 1975 when there was no fuel at the pump, I called the school to find out what happened to that vehicle and found that all traces had been removed. It is easy to see that the name of the game is to take money out of our pocket and put it in the pocket of oil people. Iraq is just a little expense of doing business ... with oil. Isn't there a crime here somewhere ??? Whom do we report it to ???

Answer 1

That story--in various forms--has been around for a long time.

And here's the samequestion I always ask: what is the process by which energy is extracted from the water?

When and if I ever see a straight answer, I'lllisten.  No offense, but until then, this myth belongs in the junkpile along with Bigfoot and flying saucers.

Answer 2

Pretty much hit the nail on the head...

Sick and sad isn't it?

And no, when this tech. comes out again, it wont destroy our countries infrastructure because you would just have a transfer of wealth from one idea to the next.  If you don't then it is considered an monopoly and should be disbanded to begin with!

Answer 3

Fuel MUST BURN. Since water does not burn it cannot be a fuel.

Period.

Any claim to the contrary is a FRAUD!

You never see claims of water powered stoves or heaters. You never see a camping stove where you fill a cup with water and light it on fire. That is because any idiot knows that water does not burn. Just because the gasoline in your engine is burning inside the engine where you can't see the flames is no reason to ignore the fact that the fuel is BURNING. Come ON people! You cannot burn water! You use water to put out a fire, not to fuel it!

(EDIT) OK, a day later and I still can't play the video, but if it is the one I have seen before, he only runs the engine for 1 or 2 seconds. And he isn't running it on water, he is running it on hydrogen gas that he made from the water with electricity from a car battery. The reason it only runs for 2 seconds is that a car battery does not have enough energy to make more hydrogen that that. It cannot work even as well as a regular battery powered electric car. Using batteries to make hydrogen to fuel a gas engine is just not as efficient as using the batteries to power electic motors directly. What he has is nothing more that a stupidly designed, overly complex, inefficient, battery electric car.

Answer 4

If we could extract power out of water, we'd be doing it.

Don't believe everything you read.

Answer 5

You can only use water as a fuel it you convert it to hydrogen/oxygen.  And, that takes a lot of energy.  Not even close to being practical.

Answer 6

If the government loses money chances are they'll come up with a way to stifle the technology.

Too many people making evil blood money to do the right thing.

There is no doubt that the technology is there but we would have to pry it from their dead fingers.

Answer 7

You should also consider the economic risks of free fuel it would cripple the economy and cause a great depression. Any new technology has to be introduced slowly or it will cause worldwide depression. And yes I know it probably is a goveronment conspiracy they need to find a way to charge us for the use of the technology in my opinion.

Answer 8

There is no such thing as a water fueled vehicle.  It does not exist, has never existed, and will never exist.  It is IMPOSSIBLE.  That means it cannot be done.

Answer 9

hi there now a long time ago   i found out that ford brought the copy rigth for the invintion of a water power car  to stop just any doing it  i think it is all wrong   water power could save this world we live in   and it lasted a lot lot long than 1 to 2 seconds   it was just like a normal car

Answer 10

Have you ever hear of cold fusion . Look at this then email the guy ask anything you like so far i cant prove anything wrong with his invention . Allot of people say cold fusion is impossible but that's what they said about man going to the moon http://www.first-molecule.com

Answer 11

You need to watch the YouTube clip you posted again and again more closely (especially from the 00:50 to 01:00 time markers) until you understand that "FoxNews" is an oxymoron (first link).  

The energy source isnt water, it's electricity.  Electrolysis of the water forms Hydrogen gas which is burned and combines with Oxygen to form water again.  Water is not an energy source, other than tidal and wave power, it is just a potential storage medium.

If the inventor in the clip is burning gas in his car to electrolyse water to create hydrogen to ... burn in his car ... he's actually wasting a LOT of energy, getting less mpg and burning more fuel to do it.  That's why his idea died.  They may still produce H2 welders, I don't know; at best there are limited applications for his idea.

If the source of the electrical energy is green, and the H2 replaces fossil fuels, then it makes sense.  

The US DOE is actively pursuing that goal of replacing fossil fuels with H2 in parallel with the more popular (cheaper) but less logical (lunacy) "CO2 sequestering".

One of the critical milestones is coming up in the next year or two:  the H2 must be compressed to a point that it competes with fossil fuels ... ie travel the same distance with the same size fuel tank.  But H2 is incredibly difficult to compress.  So it requires a very strong fuel tank to hold it.  Carbon fiber is seen as the logical choice, but the time allowed to prove it is very tight, as is the funding from an oil sponsored administration.

Answer 12

I can't wait until I can fill up my fuel tank with a garden hose. I paid $44.00 a few days ago for a tank of gas. with this technology, all the oil companies on the planet will instantly go broke wthin a month. so we are probably not going to see this technology until my kids are retiring and old (I'm 25).

Answer 13

If you want an alternative fuel vehicle, BUILD IT YOURSELF.

Technology is easy to work with and thousands of people do it.  You have to apply yourself a little bit, but learning the tech is actually easier than lots of things kids do, like get to level 60 in World of Warcraft.

So take an older car you like, yank out the stinky gas engine, and BUILD a water engine.  If you can't do that, then either you suck, or water engines don't work.

Most of these hairball ideas Just Don't Work.  And you'll figure that out for yourself, once you do the research.

However thousands of people have converted cars to electric, thousands more have converted them to run SVO (straight vegetable oil) or WVO (waste vegetable oil from restaurant fryers).  You can run any fuel you like, as long as it's legal to haul on the road (no plutonium :), and you pay road tax on the value of the fuel.

(exception: with electric cars I don't think you need to pay road tax on the electricity.)

Answer 14

I've heard about this.  Much like when the hybrids first came out and they were buying them all and burning them, because look at even our government, the president has HUGE profits in the US usage of fuel theres no way they're going to lose money that easily.

And as for the person above mes comment about "that would plunge our economy into a great depression" well I think another depression would be worth OUR PLANET BEING SUITABLE FOR HUMAN LIFE.

Answer 15

More than anything this is urban myth repeated by conspiracy theorists.  

There is no such vehicle and never was.  

Our military is the largest consumer of petroleum products in the world and the military leadership would switch fuel sources in a heartbeat to ensure that the military mission is not compromised by lack of petroleum.  The fact they haven't is the best evidence that there is no alternative at the moment.

Answer 16

Water cannot be used as fuel but it can be split into H2(Hydrogen) and O (Oxygen) using electricity and then the H2 can be burned to drive vehicles or whatever.

Question is where do you get this electicity from to split the water ?

Nothing comes free, but a viable technology would be if someone uses Solar Energy to generate electricity and split water and store the H2 in tanks to be sold to car owners. This will definitely work just try it, good biz.

But then we could as well store this electrical energy inside a battery and run an EV :)
