What does everything think about the gas/h20 mix for big fuel efficiency..?

[johndjmix1]

Just got back from RAMP Hummer today, got a new battery and clearance light under warantee.

While talking to the service Manager, he told me about a guy they deal with that has put on one of these hydrogen/gas units and it averaging around 27MPG. He said this was confirmed by others that have drive the H2 and by the avg fuel econ display.

Would the display show such an increase? How does the display get a readout? I was thinking from a VAC sensor? Does it actually look at the injector pulses and figure it out from that?

I have to plug the dealer real quick, as their serivce is simply awesome. I didnt even buy the truck from them, but still they are always ready to help. I just show up and they do the work right there, on the spot, and seem to have almost everything in stock. Never have I had an issue, had to argue a point, or to prove anything to them. Even If i have to pay a bit more, I will buy my next truck from them. This is really what helps the brand, dealers like this.

If hydrogren say were to work. Has anyone thought of the next issue.

Liquid hydrogen is a hazordous material that does require a hazmat endoursement on a CDL license. Perhaps in smaller amounts it is OK?

Just thought I would mention as I'm curious at least on this part.

Impressive results. Probably highway results though.

27mpg highway is fine in my book!

I would be very happy with 27 mpg.

Prob bull **** results. If this was practical and easy on a new vehicle it would be everywhere, and it wouldn't have taken higher gas prices and a forum to dig it up.....

Well.....it is out there.

They have tried these in the Big Rigs too. Not so successful with the Diesel Engine.
On the news the other day they had a test car running around Tokyo running with just a Hydrogen Generator. Only water as the fuel.
Everyone was sceptical about running a Diesel on old cooking oil....now look. XTreme 4x4 was showing in detail how to make your own Bio Fuel. Works out to $1.20. Kit costa $8,000.00.
Don't blow off the Hydrogen idea too quick.

[johndjmix1]

So no one here is going to spend the $65 to $300 to try this out?????

Ive tried out enough stuff (Bud Light, Corona, Miller), your guys turn.

HHO water systems are a scam and are geared towards people who fell asleep during Physics classes.

Note I'm not talking about hydrogen fuel cells or water injection here but people that are trying to covert water from hydrogen on the fly in their vehicles.

Hydrogen generation from water has one big hurdle to overcome. The amount of energy you have to spend to convert it.

Ok Guys I am New Here..I own a company in Canada & we have just finished a hydrogen unit..I also own a H2 & am looking forward to testing our unit on my rig...I have just returned from flordia where i spent a few days learning how to reprogram the E.C.M ..The problem is that when we use the hydrogen
the computor thinks the rig is running lean..and dumps more fuel in .So we have to reprogram the E.C.M. to accept the hydrogen...Our first unit we did was a ford explorer was getting 12 mpg on the highway...After reprograming the ecm & adding the hydrogen we topped out at a amazing 32mpg hwy.We are takeing my rig to flordia first part of august to superchip customing tuning to run some dyno testing on the ecm & hydrogen...Keep you posted if we even get close to the results of the explorer we will have a winner

Well Guys Belive it or not i am running a Hydrogen Generator on my h2 2003 Before installing i was getting 10 mpg at 70 mph at 1900 rpm & now i am getting between 14 & 15 mpg at the same conditions

[Alan06SUT]

I think its Ghey. Get a prius if you want good mileage no some horse **** gimmick.

[wildthing]

Ok well i just showed our unit at the last may 24 canadian hummer club meet & we are going to install a unit on one of the members hummers so he can test & post the results any questions you can email me or log in to the Canadian Hummer Club & read About the Hydrogen Generator & yes we will be showing our unit at sema We should be in the super chip tunning booth..

You should see what gas mileage I can get my display to read at sometimes......
