We don't mean to be rude by telling you to search about a topic with 25+ threads.

We just thought you'd like to see the 150+ pages of people who can't use the search button and ask the same question/swear up and down it works but have no data to back it up.

Gentlemen, it’s understood that as the internet grows in population so do the amount of people who seek only to stir trouble with those seeking answers. The statements given go only to prove that some people can be as childish as possible and show a lack of upbringing-there is no reason to act in the fashion you have acted when someone comes in a humble manner towards you. A question is asked and a question is answered, if you do not have a direct answer to the question, then do not respond-to do otherwise shows immaturity.

2009 I joined these forums while living in Houston, since then I pop back in-I look at these forums usually as the platform and foundation before I make any definitive decision on a modification to my truck. I do this because the vast majority of people here are worker bees, they are testing out ideas and proving or disproving them, they are constantly bettering their vehicles in the aspect of mpg’s. That said, before even posting I did a quick search here for HHO on these forums and got 1 result from 2008. 2008? 6 years ago? This information is near irrelevant with the amount of people testing in this era. Looking on Google will likely bring me to no legitimate answers, I’m not going to surmise this “technology” works or doesn’t work until I have some proof, not a youtube video, not a google result; I want a firsthand account, and one that is trustworthy. If you tried it and it was junk then please post, if it did work then again post-if all you did was look on youtube and came to the conclusion in your “professional” opinion that this is a working or nonworking avenue then please keep your fingers from the keyboard.

Back to my original discussion-has anyone done this with negative or positive results?

Does it work as in "Does it create HHO?" then YES.
Does it work as in "You can double your milage!!!" then NO.

Just the sight of that website instantly screams SCAM!!

Just remember that seeing a few bubbling hoses in an engine bay does not mean it has doubled the milage.

As for some background, this one sums some things up nicely IMHO:
Run your car on water? - it's a scam!

Oh, and the fact that since 2008 nobody managed to give evidence that their claims are correct, is quite a large sign that it's not working.

Guys, we need to stop responding. The OP only wants users who had success to post, or people who failed to post.

The people who had "success" are only on here for a few days trying to scam/troll.

And no one reputable here would waste their time on something that we have found ZERO results for. So let's just let this die, until the next HHtrOll comes along and posts how they doubled their mileage by buying these simple and easy plans.

I have worked with HHO.

There have been both positive and negative results as far as fuel efficiency. Measured gains have been a percentage range as have measured losses. No "doubling of fuel economy" or factors there about. And, it is not as simple as the HHO aficionados make it out to be.

I have only applied it in passing to half a dozen vehicles/engines to ascertain the parameters of a hydrogen augmented combustion engine so I can't say my information is extensive.

The bottom line is that considerable work will need to be done to gain a 5-15% advantage. An outlier engine returned 30-50% with HHO but that was in conjunction with added intake heat, mixture turbulence and lean combustion mixtures at relatively low engine revolution rates.

As a means to reduce your fuel bill, HHO is an expensive path to follow based on the returns. If you want to experiment and enjoy the challenge of it, then by all means, go for it.

Internet 101: Google is my friend, and yours also. I searched using "site:ecomodder.com hho", and got over 1000 hits. The first five pages of hits all looked relevant to the OP's original post.

The science gets buried under the pile of scammer dung only to be pompously buried even more by "experts" who have not done any work at all in the field of discussion. You say this forum has found "zero" results? I see little work on this forum as far as engine development, how much more HHO applications. Yes, the scammers need chastising, but people do need to temper their keyboards when visitors make an honest inquiry.

And I am willing to stake my reputation against yours and anyone else on here.
