Newbie introduction

Hi all,

I found this forum while searching for HHO information. My test vehicle is something that most of you will probably hate me for, though.

I have an HHO generator installed in a 1984 Dodge D150 longbed pickup truck. 225 CID slant 6 with a A833 4 speed manual transmission. The Chrysler lean burn computer has been removed and the ignition has been upgraded to points and condenser. The Carb needs a rebuild.

Without the HHO, it's getting about 17-18 MPG over the road. With the HHO, it's getting right at 20 MPG. I have noticed that with the HHO generator running, the truck has more power to pull hills. I'm hoping that once I get the carb rebuilt (parts are on order) I'll be able to increase the fuel economy even more...and get my eyes to stop watering at a traffic light.

I've had several Dodge trucks with the 225 in them. When running correctly, they can easily get 19-20 MPG. BUT, that was when gasoline was really gasoline. I'm trying for 25+ MPG out of the truck.
