Supplemental Hydrogen Fuel System For Hybrid Vehicles
March 3rd, 2010 |

WHY does it work? A supplemental hydrogen system is just that, supplemental to the use of gasoline in your vehicle. Use of a system is not an attempt to run your vehicle on hydroxy gas exclusively. Instead, it is a way to more efficiently burn the gasoline that you are already using. How? By more fully atomizing the gasoline molecules and burning them as a vapor instead of the larger droplets they would normally be.
You’re probably wondering why the combustion process wouldn’t already be efficient since it was designed by top engineers at auto manufacturers, and why supplemental hydrogen isn’t incorporated into our vehicles today. The answer is found in a question…When a new vehicle is designed, who is it designed for? EVERYONE. When new cars are made, they have to be marketable not just on the basis of fuel economy, but also on the basis of horsepower, torque, and user intervention. So you might be seeking the highest MPG rating while someone else will see horsepower as a major buying factor. Even the person seeking highest MPG might not purchase a supplemental hydrogen vehicle if he/she would have to regularly check and refill not only the gasoline but also the water and electrolyte used to produce the hydroxy gas. This is where user intervention becomes a factor. You see? Every car design is a COMPROMISE. It has to be marketable to a large demographic of drivers.
So, by using a supplemental hydrogen system we are simply taking a vehicle that’s compromised and inefficient and bringing it up to a higher level of efficient combustion. This benefit can then be directed to either increased horsepower or better fuel economy, based on the user’s preference.
How does it work? A supplemental hydrogen system consists of a fuel pre-heater assembly, an electrolyzer, and an ECU (vehicle computer) compensation method. When the system is used with fuel additives such as xylene and acetone, along with positive driving habits, it can produce dramatic results in fuel economy, sometimes over 50%. Horsepower is also drastically increased if the air/fuel ratio is not modified, because hydroxy gas is very combustable, much like nitrous oxide used in racing cars.
Fuel Pre-heater: A fuel preheater is a simple device, usually assembled of a heat conducting metal such as brass, copper, nickel or aluminum. It is placed on the radiator hose of the vehicle and wrapped in a thermal blanket. It uses otherwise wasted heat to preheat the gasoline before it reaches the fuel injection manifold or carburetor. This helps expand the dense gasoline molecules, making them closer to full vaporization temperature by the time the fuel reaches the combustion chamber. Electrolyzer: This is the heart of the system. An electrolyzer uses the process of electrolysis to change water into hydroxy gas. (hydrogen and oxygen gas) It consists of electrodes that produce hydroxy gas when submerged in water made conductive with electrolyte, such as potassium hydroxide. Electrical current from the vehicle’s battery is then applied. A substancial amount of hydroxy gas must be produced by an electrolyzer to make the combustion process more efficient. The standard of gas production is measured in liters per minute. (LPM) 1 LPM is considered baseline for a functional supplemental hydrogen electrolyzer. The hydroxy gas output of the electrolyzer is routed to the vehicle’s air intake and vacuum intake manifold.
The smaller molecules of the hydroxy gas strike the larger pre-heated gasoline molecules, breaking down the covalent bonds even further and atomizing the gasoline, while adding a combustable catalyst. ECU Compensation method: If an electrolyzer is used in a vehicle and nothing more is installed, little or no gains in combustion efficiency/MPG will be seen. This is because the ECU of the vehicle will detect more oxygen in the exhaust via the oxygen sensors. More oxygen in the exhaust usually tells the ECU your vehicle the fuel mixture is running lean, with too much air being mixed into it via the air intake. It then compensates by adding more gasoline to the mixture, and reducing the air induction, which defeats the gains of the supplemental hydrogen system. The combustion of hydroxy gas produces a large increase in oxygen in the exhaust, therefore to see gains you must compensate for this. Compensation methods currently being employed are:
1.E.F.I.E. electronic fuel injection enhancer: This device manipulates the voltages relayed to the ECU via the oxygen sensors. By telling the ECU the fuel mixture is rich, it will tell the fuel injectors to inject less gasoline and use more hydroxy. It can be purchased online by numerous retailers, or you can build your own.
2.MAP/MAF sensor enhancer: this device manipulates the voltages being sent to the ECU from the MAP or MAF sensor, effectively controlling the air/fuel ratio.
3.Oxygen sensor offset sleeves/wrapping in aluminum foil. These 2 methods of O2 sensor tweaking effectively reduce some of the sensor’s ability to detect oxygen, effectively leaning the air/fuel ratio.
Fuel Additives: Acetone and Xylene additives have been proven to increase fuel economy by breaking down the covalent bonds of the gasoline molecules, making them easier to atomize and ignite in the combustion process.
Emission/pollution reduction Emissions and air pollution from your vehicle are greatly reduced while using supplemental hydrogen because more of your gasoline is being completely used up and not being burned in your catalytic converter. The biproduct of burning hydroxy gas is heated water vapor, which steam cleans the inside of your engine and removes damaging carbon build ups and performance robbing sludge. Using a supplemental hydrogen system helps the environment twice by decreasing fuel dependency while also reducing pollutants.
CONCLUSION
By using a properly installed supplemental hydrogen system the user and the environment will greatly benefit. All that’s needed is a small amount of user intervention by refilling the water and electrolyte of the electrolyzer based on individual use. If more people would employ this system we could effectively reduce dependency on foreign oil, while also preventing damage to our environment. Why not assemble and install a system of your own today?

Don’t Get It Wrong When Fitting An HHO Generator System
The simple fact is that most modern vehicles will have oxygen sensors fitted to let the vehicles computer know if the air/fuel mixture is too lean or too rich. Gas/petrol engines are made to operate at an air/fuel ratio of 14.7 to 1 and when this is introduced to the engine, a small amount of oxygen will be detected in the exhaust emissions by the oxygen sensor fitted in the exhaust system, this information is relayed to the vehicles computer. This means that if more oxygen is detected in the system, the vehicles computer thinks that there is not enough fuel in the mixture (too lean), so alters itself and lets more fuel in. The opposite happens when the computer detects less oxygen, the vehicles computer thinks there is too much fuel in the mix (too rich) so it reduces the fuel to the engine.
There is a big problem with this though, as soon as you add an additive or device to help the fuel burn more efficiently, the oxygen detected in the exhaust will rise due to the fuel being burned more efficiently, the main reasons for this is 1. Less fuel is being used to produce the same power, and 2. Less oxygen is being used to create carbon monoxide in the exhaust system.
The main point here is that there will be more oxygen present in the exhaust system as fuel efficiency is gained.
Because of the fuel efficiency achieved and more oxygen being detected in the exhaust system, the vehicles computer thinks that it has not enough fuel in the mixture (too lean), so it incorrectly adds more fuel to the mixture. To get over this you will have to fit an EFIE (Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer) to the vehicle. The EFIE solves this by adjusting the oxygen sensor’s signal to the computer, so the computer is happy with the readings it’s getting and then makes the correct adjustments for the various conditions of the engine.
One thing to remember about an EFIE is that it is not a fuel efficiency device on it’s own. If all you was to do was add an EFIE to your car, with no other fuel efficiency system, you might gain a few mpg, but you also might not, also you will lose power due to reducing the amount of fuel in the mixture of the vehicle. The reason is that you are fooling the car’s computer and making it run out of spec, or differently than it was designed for. The EFIE was designed to make the car run according to spec after another fuel efficiency device has been installed.
Not fitting an EFIE device is the main reason why people say that HHO systems do not work. Using old out dated plans found on the Internet is not recommended for building and fitting your own HHO system, these plans are good for looking into the principles of how these systems work, but will not explain what is needed to fit one of these systems to your vehicle for optimal fuel efficiency. This is another reason why I would always recommend purchasing plans that have been tried and tested, and because they will have the latest information on the HHO system and EFIE device’s.
HHO generator systems are the way forward.

Fuel Economy With A HHO Generator System
I have looked long and hard into this subject and found that all the arguments against HHO systems are old rehashed opinions that people have picked up over the years and will probably carry on using for many more years to come.
The process of getting hydroxy gas out of water is very simple and most people would have learned about it at school, the simplicity and the fact that you can get a fuel out of water is probably why people are skeptical about HHO systems, if I was to have told you a couple of years back that it would be possible to store hundreds of hours worth of movies on a wafer thin disc no bigger than a postage stamp with no moving parts, would you have believed me? Running a car with a HHO system installed does not mean that you run it completely on hydroxy, the hydroxy is used as an additive to the vehicles own fuel, when mixed, the hydroxy helps the fuel burn a lot more efficiently, giving more power, and by burning the vehicles fuel more efficiently, this reduces some of the exhaust gases, which has got to be a good thing these days.
Now if you wanted to build one of these systems for your vehicle there are two ways in which you could go about it, you could go it alone and spend lot’s of time experimenting with different types of metals, plastics, different size gaps between electrodes etc. There are people that would rather do it this way because it is a challenge and they have some mechanical knowledge of the vehicles engine system. It can be done if you know what you are doing. The other way is to bite the bullet and buy ready made plans from people who have spent lot’s of money and time on developing these systems, this is by far the easiest approach as you get a complete step by step guide on how to build your HHO system and how to install it in your vehicle and what materials you will need. This is very important as you will have to install a little electronics gadget (EFIE) to your vehicle to tell the on board computer to reduce the fuel flow. Because of the fuel efficiency achieved, and more oxygen being detected in the exhaust, the vehicles computer thinks that it has not enough fuel in the mixture (too lean), so it incorrectly adds more fuel to the mixture. which we don’t want.
Many people as soon as they read about HHO systems think that it is a scam? This word seems to be over used these days. Take the HHO system for example? You can find hundreds of videos from professional television news casts showing these systems working, there is even a little town in America that has fitted these systems to the police cars to bring down fuel bills and they say it works. But it seems that when the people that have been experimenting for years and spending their own money on these systems decide to sell the plans it’s labeled as a scam? Most of the people selling these systems use legitimate payment processing companies that have a strict 56 day money back guarantee, this means if you wanted your money back it’s the payment processing company that pays your refund. Not bad for a so called scam!
So in ending this article, I would say that if you are interested in HHO systems, not be put off by people who try to use old arguments on why these systems won’t work. Would we have had the light bulb if the Internet was around all those years ago? The fact is that we know we can get hydroxy out of water by electrolysis, and when hydroxy is added to a vehicles fuel it helps it burn more efficiently. The HHO system does not completely power the vehicle it is just a way of producing an additive that helps your fuel burn more efficiently, but if you don’t let your vehicles fuel monitoring system know that a HHO system is fitted, you will not benefit whatsoever.
