By HHO mod I assume some type of in car hydrogen generator using work created by some combustion cycle. Percent gain as far as fuel economy? It would be a loss. My car is designed to use gasoline. Hydrogen is a fuel and as such it should be included in fuel economy. How do you think an engine that is designed to run on gasoline will do on any other fuel, economy wise?[/QUOTE]

Define "any other fuel"...??? Methanol, Ethanol, Propane, Natural gas, Browns gas, Hydrogen? This discussion forum, "Right now" is talking about Browns Gas and so I think we are all trying to figure out how economical it would be, to make/use it in a gasoline "designed" engine.
