I WATCHED a regular (though carburated) gasoline engine car run on PURE HYDROGEN GAS. On national television.

they shoved the hose into the carb and it started and RAN on hydrogen gas from a tank.

your car will burn hydrogen just as happily as gasoline.

Hydrogen working or not is not up for discussion. its simple physics and chemistry.

you put Hydrogen into an engine cylinder and light it and its GOING to behave just like gasoline and move that cylinder.

the ONLY thing up for negotiation or discussion as far as I am concerned is whether or not an end user can practically generate enough of it to be worth the hassle.

Copying from my post on another thread:

Until God repeals the laws of thermodynamics, I won't buy an on-board hydrogen generator system.
Let me offer this again: I'll help someone design a safe and effective way to meter in H2 from a bottle free of charge. If practical, I'll help you test the results. If it shows a net power output that is equal to more than the fuel value of the hydrogen (ie, hydrogen injected alongside gasoline), then I'd say you had something worthwhile. I'll even assign all rights to the design over to you.

But if you insist on generating HHO onboard, then I wish you luck, but tjts1 is correct.

Do think about car hire in Palma before you go. That way you save money and get to see everything.
