a little off topic from the minis but i been researching hydrogen generators to run my truck off of theres a website called hydrogen4000.com just wondering if anybody has used this or a kit like this they sell for like a grand but was curious if it was worth it to buy this kit or build my own if anybody has any knowledge on this stuff i would be all kinds of thankfull an does it really help on fuel milleage or are they just blowing smoke

idn how it works i mean i think it would run to lean since its a gas not a liquid and its just air your igniting but i mean itll work idn how healthy hydrogen is for your car i mean you gotta figgure if hydrogen was really that good wouldnt our gas stations be filled with them already and cars running off hydrogen anyways?

i been reading up on it an i guess you just inject it after the maf sensor an the puewter corrects the air fuel ratio,so its like running a second fuel source

Unfortunately there is not an effecient way to extract hydrogen from water. Until there is, you wont see many hydrogen fueling stations in the country.

Injecting Hydrogen into a gas engine and increasing myth has been busted! Doesnt do anything but make mileage worse!

well thanks anyways for the negativity seems to be a lot of talk but has anybody on here tryed it i dont care what a tv show or some hill jack at a truck stop said,there was a guy around my town that had a s-10 he converted an it was the talk of the town for years but he has since died so no info there from a reputable source.i guess back to researching more an by the way it only takes 13amps to make enough hydrogen to run a 200 horse engine,that isnt much more than your headlights running.

I wasnt referring to "Myth Busters"!!!!

There are many credible sources that have busted it!
