How Water For Gas Technology Works

Water4Gas, Fueltrips, Gas4Free, Half Water Half Gas, to name just a few, are all systems (or a guide to build a system to be precise) to convert Water for Gas that can be used to power your car. But this is a little misleading. These systems don't actually convert Water for Gas. They convert water to hydrogen which is added to your existing fuel to make it more efficient. This is sometimes referred to as Hydroxy and is simply the separating of the constitution elements of a water atom. This article will explain how Water for Gas technology works.

A Water for Gas conversion kit consists of a few main parts that are fairly easy to obtain and even make yourself with a few bits and pieces and a bit of DIY knowledge. Here are the major components of such kits :

Electrolyzer (some call it "Hydrogen Generator"): these would be the containers (quart sized) can contain about 950cc of ordinary tap water or distilled water (based on the requirement of the manufacturer of the conversion kit). It could be glass, metal or plastic containers.

MAP Sensor Enhancer: this electronic device reduces fuel consumption without modifying the engine or the computer

Vaporizer: adds water vapor to the engine to cool it down, improves combustion and fuel economy.

Fuel Heater: pre-heats your gasoline for better gas economy, using only energy from the radiator that gets wasted otherwise, it requires no modifications done to the radiator or its hoses#

PCV Enhancer: another great companion to your hydrogen system that improves the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) function, protects your engine and saves gas.
Fuse holder + wiring. Connect to the 12 volts.

Vacuum T-connector: helps you splice the vacuum line for feeding the hydrogen and oxygen into the engine.

Catalyst: Ordinary baking soda.

Pure hydrogen is dangerous, especially storing it in large compressed amounts in containers. It can result into explosion, however water does not explode. That is why Water for Gas conversion kits do not use pure hydrogen. Since hydrogen is already compressed or present in water, it is safely and easily released and consumed. So when HHO is produced, the by-product left is water. No harmful chemicals are being emitted from this system. You just need enough space under the hood to place a quart sized jar to put the water and catalyst. Catalyst is the substance that helps the electricity separate water into HHO. Nothing will happen without this material. This system uses ordinary baking soda, you can easily grab it from the nearest grocery store or from your kitchen cabinet.

Water is converted into HHO gas using electricity from the car’s battery. The quart-sized water jar with a little bit of baking soda is placed under the hood. This device is connected with some fuse holder and wires to the car’s battery. It gets vacuum and electricity from the engine produces the HHO gas. The HHO gas is supplied to the carburetor. The generator from your battery connects the device via the ignition switch. This prevents hydrogen production when the engine is off and uses less electricity.

So that's how Water for Gas technology works. Of course this is quite a contentious point as many people don't think it works. They believe that the energy required to make the hydrogen is coming from the car via the battery which will result in a flat battery or the turning of the alternator to charge it. And of course the alternator is powered by the engine that runs on the fuel. So it would be a self sufficient system which is physically impossible. However some people that have used these systems claim that the systems has lowered fuel consumption and saved them money at the fuel bowser.
