    I have read up on running your petrol/diesel engine on a mixture of fuel and water apparently it doubles your fuel mileage I have seen the diagram on how it is set up and tempted to give it a try it is $70usd,before I fork out the $$$ has any one tried it or mechanicly minded enough to say whether it does work??

    In 'theory' it works, but you would have to take a punt and see for yourself.

    Never used it, but I can see all it does is dilute the fuel a bit. Might cause the engine to ping unless you retard the spark along with a loss of power. Its been done with gasoline.

    and hey my 500th post! I'm now a Tauren :)

    sounds like a job for myth busters!

    too me it sounds bunk. but I suppose it depends how much stock you put into what you have read and where you read it.

    no doubt. if it was only $70 and it worked...wouldn't it be in the wal-mart checkout area (next to the cigarette lighters and skittles) for people to buy :p

    Fuel and water doesn't mix too well.
    I would risk trying this - it could end up an expensive mistake!

    For $70,i think all they will be getting is some report or ebook to set up the system.

    It still amazes me how he managed to get 1.21 Jiggawatts out of normal domestic refuse. Remarkable.

    The water4gas plans is one of the least efficient systems. Do a search on youtube for HHO or hydroxy or even hydrogen generator. My bet is on what is being called a "dry system" (dry on the outside but not inside.) This should be the most efficient system if you are building it with the correct amount of plates.

    It was their show on hydrogen that made me realize how stupid they were. I actually had to figure all the rest of their tests were just as bad as that one.

    The best part is when they were foolish enough to vent pure hydrogen in the carb of a car from a tank! That was the part that showed me that it was all hollywood foolishness.

    Why pay $70 for it when you can go to Giant Eagle's Getgo or Walmart Gas and get it for 2 cents cheaper than normal gas :D

    Oh and BTW don't worry your check engine light will come on tons of times :p That's why you need Gum out or one of them fuel injector things.

    Hi thanks for replies and appreciate any advice it does sound a bit cheap to be a successful system(or maybe it was $70 for the ebook) they did have a video of supposedly it working,it showed it all hooked up and the engine started and running,I think will just have to try it and find out,retard the spark you say..

    No one has one that produces enough gas to run the car only on Hydrogen, but the devices are made to add hydrogen to the burn.

    The one that hydrogen4gas has is just a very basic device, it will put out hydrogen, just not much compared to many other designs.

    Retarding the spark will only matter if you get enough hydrogen in the engine. On newer cars you need to fool the engine on the oxygen sensor readings, you see it will cause a cleaner burn and when hydrogen is burned it combines with oxygen to create water, and your engine will think it is burning too lean and add more gas into the mix.... not what you want it to do when you are trying to save fuel.
