As soon as I have the time I'll put an HHO jug on my Focus. The math Im working with is that a cell using 15 to 40 amps will produce 2 litres of HHO per minutes. From what I got off Youtube, they have a guy who ran a 93 Ford Escort 1.9 litre and got 50 mpg highway with the HHO.
I know I have mentioned this before, there is a video on the web of a camera in the cylinder of a Ford Taurus V6, even with fuel injection, fuel is in huge droplets and spins around, the spark does not make a perfect flame kernal, filling the cylinder in a text book fashion. Insted the turbulent explosion burns areas of the cylinder and some areas dont light at all. You can still see the suspended droplets blowing out the exhaust.
What I feel happens is that the HHO surrounds the fuel and aids combustion, it is a gas and not an atomized liquid. The increased fuel burning lets the O2 sensor read cold and leans the mixture increasing MPG. I understand it works well on diesels, also amonia somehow aids diesel efficiency.
Once you go over 2.0 litres, then the HHO cell has to get larger, now we have to have twice the amperage. I have seen cells as large as fish tanks in some pickups. One thing I think can help the amperage is a PWM or Pulse Wave Modulator. By sending a frequency through the electrolyte, it makes the same amount of HHO with less amps.
The basic math of HHO sepparation is that Hydrogen is a positivly charged atom and Oxygen is negative. Place water and electrolyte in a field and atoms sepparate producing the HHO gas.
Mythbusters really let me down by blowing hydrogen gas down the carb of an old V8, it back fired and Mythbusters called Hydrogen dangerous. They then built a beautiful HHO cell and filled it with water and no electrolyte, hooked a car battery to it and the cell did nothing, they then called the myth busted. Well these lab guys didn't do the experiment right.
On the other hand Mythbusters did a great test on vegetable oil diesels, they took an old Mercedes 300D drove it and got 34 MPG, they then replaced the fuel with Wesson oil and the car got 29 MPG. They proved a diesel can run on vegetable oil and not petrolium based diesel. In this instance, Mythbusters got it right.
Im really weighed down with work now, no garage and a street I have to work on the car car in 90 degree heat and high humidity. As soon as fall gets around I have a place under the hood I can stick an HHO jug.
Keep tossing the HHO potato around and someone will make a basket.
