Run That Diesel On Water?????????

[TAbbott]

I imagine it's plumbed like a propane fumigation system with the gas being introduced behind the air cleaner and ahead of the turbo.

I say we quit giving away our grain to foreign countries and make some of the other nice countries pay for it. Then we might start refusing to business with other countries that do not share humane beliefs. Some day people may consider nuclear powered transportation. Please just think about it. The U. S. should be financially the strongest country and we can be if we just get someone in there that has some Kahunas.

YES YOU CAN I HAVE BEEN USEING WATER AND BAKIG SODA FOR ABOUT A MONTH ON 08 C/C NOW AND A FRIEND OF MINE IS USING IT ON HIS FORD AND A HEMI DODGE... . COST $ 75. 00 FOR THE PARTS TO MAKE IT. VERY SIMPLE TO MAKE AND INSTALL DODGE UNDER HOOD FORD IN TRUCK BED. IT IS THE HYDROGEN GAS YOU CAN MAKE YOURSELF AND PLUMB INTO AIR INTAKE. SO FAR SO GOOD UP MY MILEAGE TO CONSTANT 21/22 MPG EMPTY FREEWAY DRIVING. THE FEOR WENT FROM 9 MPG TOWING TO 14 MPG STILL SUCKS DOES NOT SEEM TO AFFECT. STILL WORKING ON THE BUGS TO BALANCE THE AMPS USED TO PRODUCE THE GAS. STAY AROUND 20 PER SYSTEM. WE HAVE A GRAIN HAULER INSTALLING HIS VERSION USING MASON JARS CALLED A SIXPACK SO FAR SO GOOD. tHIS THING REALLY WORKS SO FAR.

Please keep us posted on this. Its interesting to read (minus the sarcastic comments) and may be a future possibility.

If we focus on at least MINIMAL gains - even a couple MPG - that in a tank of fuel at today's prices would be great...

I have had great success running mine on methane gas. See i run a hose from my airbox through the cab and I have a hole drilled in the drivers seat and well ... ... mexican food runs the best. Just kidding... . I find it very interesting though and I will give you the same respect that I want when I try to explain new ideas.

Grasmo, I think you're on to something. Now take it one step further. Buy a fiver and fill it with cattle...

You get the idea... Now that would be a true biodiesel.



I've thought about CNG, but it's supposed to go up in price this fall by 30-40%. The other is WOOD GAS. Generate it at home, and cool, filter and compress it, then inject like propane.

A Closed Mind is a Terrible thing to Waste!

The gas is plumbed directly behind air cleaner between cold air and map sensor. We have tried sealing intake with silicone to make it as air tight as possible. Dyno run on 02 ram 3500 will be done next week.

Dunno about others, but I'm far more interested in the MPG aspects than power gains - I suspect other mods would be required to apply Hydrogen purely for power improvement - such as injection timing, computer programming, etc...



BUT, your results will be interesting just the same.

It is not so far fetched!

It's unclear as to whether the guy in those vids is claiming to run that truck TOTALLY on HHO - or simply supplementing the diesel fuel - I suspect that he is only supplementing the diesel - AND, if he is attempting to show with ONLY the computer display what his "gains" are, that is entirely misleading - ONLY longer test runs, with reasonably measured mileage and fuel volume are a "test" - computer readouts are NORORIOUSLY inaccurate in situations like this - Hell, I often show over 40 MPG at 60 MPH on flat ground - but usually do a best of a bit over 22 MPG in actual MPG.



MPG computers LIE - and are easily compromised in actual delivered MPG...



I want to believe this stuff as much as the next guy - but those vids are worthless by themselves!
