That is a bit of an extrapolation that I would be reluctant to make. I doubt that the carburetor was operating consistently near stoichiometric AFR, and even if it was, then I am interested in the reasoning that extends the benefits to lean burn given that the stoichiometric ratio for HHO is 2:1 and petrol 14.7:1. To extend into lean burn territory there needs to be an alternate reaction pathway or a synergistic / catalytic reaction phenomenon.
