Hello Brad I am a retired Teacher and a Vietnam Vet. Does that mean I should be thanked twice? But in my case the language would have been Vietnamese instead of German. Quite candidly, I do not think the Vietnamese had any intentions of invading the USA. But I do like Rice. Perpetual motion found!
Yep...you should be. I don't think the Afgan people or the Iraq people wanted to take over the US either, but it didn't make the bombs or bullets feel any less real.
UPDATE: Filled up the Maverick... 16.5MPG. Now, I dont have a long gas log of the Maverick. In fact... Ive only got two calculated fill ups. They were BOTh right around 18mpg. It would seems this thing actually dropped my gas milage. I think this is from two reasons: 1) This was teh first week in a couple months Ive gotten to drive the Maverck. So, I was havin a little fun... No where close to driving for fuel economy like i did to get 18mpg. 2) 10-15 amps really taxes my alternator. I need to have it tested. It feels like it's weak. Even running the headlights feels like it's putting too much resistance against the engine. Ive now changed the electrolite to sodium hydroxide. This creates more HHO w/ less amperes. Maybe this tank with provide some better results.
I got better milage out of my car using water too. I didn't have AC for awhile.......always rushed home to get a nice cool drink....got bad milage from the rushing. Started buying a bottle of water before I left for home, had a drink, was refreshed, took it easy on the throttle......increased my milage by almost 4 MPG and it only cost me 89 cents a day!
Just for people to see...an objective opinion about the subject. Not that it matters because people will just tear it apart on here. http://www.green-energy-news.com/arch/nrgs2008/20080071.html
Objective opinion? Nowhere on that page does it say that the idea works for certain or has been indepentently tested and proven. It simply states the theory behind the idea. I'd just like to see actual scientific laboratory testing. Wonder why that hasn't happened by now?
Objective : undistorted by emotion or personal bias; based on observable phenomena; That was objective...at least it seemed to me. I would like to see it in labs as well, but people that start testing it stop in the middle of testing or don't test it on a vehicle and stick to using devices or motors not excatly designed like a car or truck motor...fun...someone else that hasen't tried it and wants to poke fun at it...and aparently doesn't believe that fact that I did it and am not selling anything and have no reason mislead anyone on here.
Exactly my point, there was no observed phenomena referenced in the article. I actually hope something like this would work, but my three years of Physics classes and two years of Chemistry leaves me doubting.
Objective Opinion Wouldn't that be an Oxymoron? Objective- undistorted by emotion or personal bias; based on observable phenomena Opinion- a personal belief or judgment that is not founded on proof or certainty Objective Test Results would be more desireable.
UPDATE: Just filled up. 17.5mpg Which is within range of my past milage.... Gas is too expensive, and here lately, hard to find, so I took everything off. Not a good time to experiment with this stuff. Ill put it back on after I get a new alternator. I have a big feeling that is the problem. Using the blinker with the lights on already taxes the system... Throw in another 10 amps and WOW! Almost no head lights left. Not good...
