I'm planning on building a series plate electrolizer right now. I'll be posting on that as soon as I start building it. I just picked up the stainless plate last night.

The key to these units is tuning the engine after the device is installed to adjust for the change in combustion characteristics. The usual kit just includes the generator, but no way of altering fuel and ignition maps after its installed. The stock computer doesn't know what you have done to the engine, how is it supposed to cope with it correctly? It really doesn't, so you need to tune it afterwards.
