nice

Thanks, I will have a mileage update on Monday.

Keep in mind I only have the front O2s spaced out. I haven't installed any electronics yet. I want to see the difference with and without.

I don't have a bubbler...should I be worried?

All the bubbler is, is water with the hho tube going in one side and the "out" to the intake going to the other?

I don't realy know about it.

I'm thinking about 02 spacers

I dont want to sound like a D1ck....But you need to read and search for more information. The bubbler AKA backflash, scrubber does two thing one keeps the mix from going inside your eng and second keep your generator from popping thru the hood if your engine ever backfires.


Warning to ALL playing with HHO........READ and READ some more before grabbing some jars and baking soda. YOU could damage your engine and electrical system in your car very easy.

I'm done with this sh*t....

F this...I'm not messing with this crap.  I guess it got too hot and melted.  I was only running 1/4 teaspoon baking soda...I'm pretty pissed to say the least.  So I wrote the guy an email that I got it from







Not worth my frustration...I'll bend over at the pump before I try this jimmy rigging crap!!!




Big daddy, it's not a matter of reading, it's just that I don't really find it all that interesting, I would love to know a lot about it, but I can't take more than 5 mins of reading; I feel like I'm back in HS chemistry. I bought a kit so I wouldn't have to build my own and research, and was told I have everything I need...little did I know...

So I'm done with it, I'll be a stupid american and bend over at the pump until I sell my ranger and buy a diesel.  I'm not messing with this crap...

Don't get disscouraged because you got a piece of junk.

I see it was constructed with a metal lid. I bet that the terminals weren't isolated and it melted together, like welding. That why the plastic lid is better.

Damn, sorry to see that. I have read many problems about the generator getting hot and drawing too much power after a while on. I like TRX450R_Racer's design with multiple cells.

The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do.

In the water4gas book it says that the best set up is 6 jars. Wired 2 seperate strings of 3 in series, all using the same 12 volts. It breaks up the voltage, lowers the amount of heat and ups the amount of gas.


Bummer I just went to the ebooks online to post some pictures and they have been removed from the server. Good thing I read it a bunch of times.

I run a 10 amp fuse and haven't popped it.

Jr did you have a fuse inline? How many amp was it?

Too much mixture with heat from the engine ended your project early. When I saw the moisture in the hose and the jar bubbling on the top it looked to me it was getting to hot. But don't get disscouraged I have done worst in the beginning of some of my project. Its best that you use plates and a good container vs Jars.   

I use house water filter for all my HHO generator, stronger and can handle the heat from the unit.

I was running ~5amps.  I had 1/4 teaspoon.  The discoleration is from all the plexi melting. 

I did notice it got hot from the engine heat.  I don't really want to run another system.  If i do it would be a big daddy kit, and I'd run it in the back of my bed to get away from the heat.  I don't really think I want to mess with it though, 18mpg isn't all too shabby (Thats what I get on my MPG tune).  I just get 15 because I usually tow at least 1x a tank.  I get 14 towing.

The guy is giving me a full refund.  I'm very happy about that.

Older vehicles with a carburetor respond better to it then the newer computer controlled, fuel injected ones.

Honda and GM are working on it. They even supposed to have some built, but not selling them yet. The problem is that its very explosive and to build a car that would work on it, they need to have a place to store the fuel because if they built it like these units, people would not maintain it properly and then you could have an explosion and then its lawsuit problems.
