I also live in Alaska and wonder about the cold- maybe and insulated box behind the cab, that way you could put in a BIG unit. saw one on uTube. wouldn't take much to keep it heated- plug in at night- we have to anyway. small 12 volt heater on the road?? Clark

Does anybody have any info on the max recommended input for the HHO gas??? Im thinking of a large unit installed behind the cab in an insulated box. I saw one on utube with 60 plates- Ihave the whole bed of the truck---- would make it nice for assembly- make the whole thing in the garage- test and refine-- set in the truck bed. Just have a hose running forward................hmmmmmmmmmmm. Clark

You are going to want to keep the size under control. The reason most of the units you see are under the hood is to keep the amount of gas to a minimum before you use it. I have seen pics of a 6-pack of quart jars for a big rig. The unit I am close to installing in mine has 8 sets of plates and holds about a quart of water. One number I heard was 7 liters per hour for engines up to about the 6.0 range.

Enough is enough, but too much can most certainly be dangerous. one guy here had his blow up. Mostly due to poor assembly techniques, but it is important to remember, there is a lot of energy in this stuff.

well I just got a note from a buddy that did install the water4gas on his tractor, but he won't know if it makes a difference till he starts mowing. I guess the only thing holding me back is the embrittlement issue, seems like I read somewhere it wasn't a problem with HHO gas. I just got a 3000$ set of injectors installed in the duramax - on chevy's nickle- and don't want to screw that up. Just have to get my nerve up. here is a pic(I think) of the tractor water4gas hookup.

This is what I got in an email from a company that sells HHO generators, New Fuel Technologies. Any comments on this?:

"we use Stainless Steel rods and we are getting great results with them.

We are pulling 2.5- 5.0 amps, with are unit. Some people out there are saying that you need a minimum of 20 amps this is simply not true. (See the Duramax results below)

Our HHOG"s produces any where from 2.5 liters to 6.5 liters per hour.

We have tested our HHOG (64oz) on a 2008 Chevrolet Duramax. The trucks normal mileage was 17-20 mpg. Using our unit i jumped upto 45.76 mpg at 60 mph. We then drove it a 100 miles at 72 mph and the gain was 38.72 mpg. Our customer was very pleased with the results. He wants to start selling them for us. the least amount of a gain for our customers has been 27% so far. We also have had a 2004 Dodge Caravan go from 18 mpg to 35 mpg.

As you can see our HHOG's do not pull alot of amperage or produce a large amount of HHO gas. I think our results speak for themselves. If you have any further questions please contact me."

Post Has anyone here tried this??

Hey I wanted to get this back to the top of post list to see if anyone has tried it.

I've researched it on many different sites. , http://www.water4gas.com, Water Car Pro - Run Your Car On Water, gasfromwater.info

And there is some stuff about it on youtube. Just buy a book to show you how and supposidly, gauranties 40% mileage increase.

Also have seen just the opposite claiming its a scam.

I remember back in the day I bought into a system you used container of water that you added this special brown chemical it caused a reaction and it was tied into you intake system. It didn't really work.
