Several weeks ago I posted a thread saying that I was installing a water electrolyzer (from water4gas) in my car to boost my mpg. I really had no idea the shti storm this would cause on this site. I ran the system on my car for a while, with good results at first, but over time, my mileage dropped off to below normal results. After some research I found that the reason my system was performing below expectations was because my O2 sensor was recognizing the extra oxygen pushing through my exhaust and telling my computer to dump more fuel to burn it up.
I've since installed Mikes delux single efie from fuel-saver.org on my 2001 S2000 and I can safely say that I went from avg. 27 mpg to 40. I have kept my efie voltage between 200mv and 250mv. My hho kit makes between 1 and 1.2 lpm. Its running on 12 volts and 15 amps (1/4 tsp baking soda). If anyone wants info on the install, feel free to ask. It's been a pain in the rear to figure all of this out the hard way and I would love to help another S2000 owner. I'm saving $1.30/gallon.

Please dont start in with the science/physice lessons. I really did hear it all the last time. This post is not intended to refuel the fire. I just want people to know that this technology, thought fairly crued, does work.

I do realize that there is an inherent risk of overheating my valves by over leaning my fuel but I'm staying well within safe parameters.

Seriously, I dont want to hear a physics lesson. If you have a real question and not just a rant, I would be more that happy to give you help/advice on what I know about the systems as they relate to a (2001) S2000.

These are the two sites I've found most helpful in my adventure:

How about posting some pics of your set up?

 

im not sure if i did that right or not, ive never posted a pic, but these are some pics of my setup.

 

 

interesting...

 

I have been working on a generator (fuel cell), but my time is limited due to work. Over the last year I have made several different fuel cells and I think I have made my last one before running it in my car.

Your numbers are pretty impressive, do you know how many LPM you are generating? I am targeting for at least 3, I think I can make about 6 but I don't want to exceed 15 amps.

 

Im getting between 1 and 1.2 liters per minute. i know the 15 amps is excessive. somewhere around 5 is recommended but that just happens to be a conveniant curcuit to wire in to. the real gas production seems to have more to do with the electrolyte in the (distilled) water. i first used about 1 tsp of baking soda and it did put out more gas, but the wire also got hot enough to warp the internal plexi element so i went down to 1/4 tsp. koh or potassuim hydroxide (ph up for fish tanks) is supposedly the best electrolyte but i cant seem to find any at the moment. this water4gas system is linkable/plumbable in a parallel or series circuit and they claim you can use up to 7 without a drastic drop in electricity across the lot but i havent gotten to that stage of this experiment yet. theyre not expensive to make but i have to buy everything in bulk so i just havent gone that far yet.

 

 

What does it do to performance? Remains the same?

Keep us updated, this seems like it could be a really cool thing to do.

 

How hard is it to install?
