destrib, as you suggested I checked it out. My best guess is that you misunderstood one or more of the Top Gear stories about GM's fuel-cells. I find no evidence that GM says they have a water-powered car.
If you can point to something specific, please do.

You find "what brygenon is talking about" in the current "water-fueled car" article in Wikipedia.

I am not sure what brygenon is talking about. I have a HHO on demand working very well in my car and the gas receipts to prove the millage increase! It will work really well.

The video is about a hydrogen powered engine, and seems at least reasonable. Some scammer added bogus captions and misrepresented it.

Well thats not true. GM says they have a car that runs off water and it works. I just seen it on Top Gear. Check it out. Let's be honest the powers that be don't want a water car becuz they would lose billions of dollars.

will it run on HHO ass well? if yes how many liters of HHO gas production nedded to run an 8 cilinder 4.5L angin? its an old marcedes angin so im sure it dosn't have any sufisticated electronics.

No. Not one. Not ever. Over-unity generators have a 100% failure rate; zero exceptions. People have been designing these things for over 800 years, and not one has ever worked.
There is nothing new about these ideas. Every year, millions of school children think of using water as fuel, when they learn it is composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
This year will be like the hundreds before. Lots of incredible claims. Many will fool themselves and others. No one will deliver. No one ever does.

Your system runs using a tank of presurized hydrogen gas, not a fuel cell.so,do you show how to store hydrogen in a tank using a fuel cell? If not, where are we suppose to get the Hydrogen? do they sale it by the tank? is it cheaper than petrol?

what I want to know is this:
Does anyone ever used one of these guides which are sold on the internet and acctually is now running his car on water? I am still searching for those people on forums...

I realized claimants about water-fueled engine used the wrong ideas in explaining the mechanism that is mainly responsible to what they had observed. Water isn't a fuel but it can be used for waste heat energy recovery. Water has a lot more Molar Heat Capacity than those other gases present in the same combustion chamber. When gas expands, the steam tends to behave like coolant to reabsorb or recover some of waste heat energy and convert the same into mechanical work and reduce engine temp. |
