Water fuel--HHO?

Question

Answer if you have really tried this.. Can you run it on old carb type motors? What comp ratio do you need? Will it fry cast pistons? Hyperutectic ? Or do you need forged? is it really as good as they say double your fuel millage ect ect What kind of fuel presure do you need?

Answer 1

Think for ten seconds.  If it was that easy why aren't the car manufacturers doing it?

Answer 2

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that’s definitely not possible. It takes about 50 kilowatt-hours to produce a kilogram of the “HHO” gas from water, and you can get at most 39 kilowatt-hours worth of heat from burning it. Then take into consideration your car’s engine is somewhere in the neighborhood of 15-24% energy efficient, the net effect is more wasted gasoline.

On the bright side, the “HHO” gas does produce a stoichiometric burn as the “HHO” gas turns back into water when you ignite it--but any ODB I or II PCM will go insane trying to correct the burn, and a carbureted engine will actually run rich due to the additional volume of gas passing by the venturi. It violates almost all of the laws of thermodynamics and is inherently dangerous, even the mythbusters busted this.

Answer 3

It will work as well in an old motor as in a new one - not at all.  This is a scam, do not waste your money.  It will not work, it cannot be made to work.  The second law of thermodynamics cannot be broken.

Answer 4

Its just a con.

Answer 5

The rig will generate hydrogen and oxygen, and your car will burn these along with the regular fuel. So in that sense, it does indeed work, plus or minus the inconvenience of the whole arrangement.

But it won't save you any gasoline. That's because the electrical energy that you use to dissociate the water into hydrogen and oxygen ultimately comes from the alternator, and the additional electrical load on the alternator translates to an additional mechanical load on the engine--that is, the alternator is harder for the engine to turn when it's producing your hydrogen and oxygen, so the engine has to work harder. It turns out that some of this electrical energy also ends up heating the water, so you never get out as much energy in the form of burnable H2 and O2 as you put in through the alternator belt.

The people who promote such hydrogen schemes don't understand this--they think that there's 'excess voltage' or "unused energy" available from the car's electrical system, and there is not. You could charge the battery at home, which would effectively power your car through your home's electric meter, but it would be a good deal of work.

Answer 6

Your present motor ruining burns most of the fuel. If u add more fuel what will it do. If there is not more oxygen it will not burn. I did it a long time ago. I removed the air filter and injected acetylene gas . The motor did not increase in speed, in fact it may of slowed slightly. If u are burning all the fuel it will not produce any CO. To add fuel u need a surplus more oxygen.

Answer 7

I know people who have installed a Joe Cell in their cars, and they work - most of the time.
