Discovering The Advantage Of Water Fuel Technology

By Paul Petersen


Over the past few months, you may have heard on the news or Internet how people are using plain water to power their car. It's an amazing story, especially with $5/gallon gas in the US, and $10/gallon gas in Europe, but it it true?

In fact, basic water fuel technology does work and have been around since World War II, when it was used in tanks and fighter plane engines. These simple water injection systems helped to increase gas mileage and cool engine temperatures under harsh conditions.

Hydrogen Fuel Cars were developed in the 1960s, but only became popular in the past few years since they require special fuel that's expensive and not readily available. These vehicles can cost as much as $100,000, like the BMW H7 or the Audi A2H2. Most manufacturers aren't even selling Hydrogen Cars yet since the science is still not perfect and there are few Hydrogen Gas Stations in operation.

Japanese scientists have also been working on a car that converts water to electricity, which drives the power train. This is expected to be available in North America and Europe, but not for several years. However, a completely new technology was recently developed that combines water molecules with electricity and gasoline, creating 2 parts hydrogen and 1 part oxygen. This generates a gas known as HHO, which is both extremely clean burning, and very safe for use. Most of the reputable water fuel advocates recommend the HHO method since it's universal, and works on all vehicles.

So how much does this revolutionary system cost? Well a Professionally installed HHO system is priced at around $2,500 whereas an HHO conversion kit will cost you about $500. The kit itself is easy to assemble and install, so you could actually do it yourself for less than $150 as the parts are easily available. The top kits come with illustrated diagrams, a complete parts list and full instructions and you don't need to be a qualified mechanic to get it properly installed.

An estimated 98% of all road vehicles can be adapted for HHO technology and the principle advantage is without a doubt the possible 40% savings in fuel consumption. Apart from that though you will own a car that is cleaner, more environmentally friendly and one that will improve your mileage big time. A car manufacturer's warranty will be in no way affected by converting to HHO, so this could be the chance for you to make a difference. Aren't you just tied of being held to ransom by the rich oil producing nations? Well, if you are you now have the chance to run your vehicle on cheap fuel and not have to worry about the mileage anymore.
