The concept of Fuel and Water Conversions has always been a hot topic on hypermiling discussion boards, but lately the average consumer has been wondering if this somewhat strange-sounding technology can actually increase gas mileage. The simple answer to this question is yes. I’ll tell you exactly how.
When a person hears the term “water fuel,” they think of putting water in their gas tank. This is NOT how this technology works at all. You are not adding anything to your gas tank. What you are going to do is do a very simple conversion to your car that anyone can do. And if you don’t have a penchant for mechanics, a mechanic can easily do this for you in less than an hour.
To understand how water fuel technology works to increase gas mileage, you need to understand a little science. The conversion, once done, will draw a small amount of current from your car battery, which will flow through a special coil into a very small reservoir of water. This small stream is harmless and will serve to separate the water molecules into HHO gas. This is a very stable and smooth burning gas.
This HHO gas is then fed into your vehicle’s intake system and combines with your air / fuel mixture to create a cleaner, cooler, and more efficient combustion chemical mixture. Is this hydrogen power? In a sense it is. This is what experts like to call hydrogen on demand. There is no real hydrogen gas reservoir. There is simply water that turns into hydrogen gas when the car needs it.
The result is, on average, a 75% increase in fuel economy. With some settings included with the instructions, it can be even more. Imagine pulling your old Civic out of the garage and getting 55 MPG on a tank of gas. How about that to save money?
