lol didnt think of that till you mentioned it

Would greater savings be possible by fooling the engine management system as its doubtless putting out too much fuel - the vehicle looks as though its young enough to have such a system!

excellent point you make

i'd like to try doing this on my 81 rabbit diesel. i actually thought of this today since it rained this morning on my way to work and i noticed it ran much better, then at work i was repairing an ultra sonic nebulizer and thought how a few of them put together could make more fog that whats reaching my intake. And also a lot of diesel people use water misters to spray windshield washer fluid into the engine, the water/meth mix helps make a lot more power, but thats no secret.

I agree with that statement except for the Water to Hydrogen off the heat. In order for water to separate VIA heat its got to reach 2700 celcius and gasoline hits about 850 from what i understand.

The mix is too rich. You can usually expect a percent of the water to convert to hydrogen, steam does produce mechanical energy as well as any burned gas. So, both reactions work well together until the mixture is too rich. Too much water and it won't get hot enough to do either much less both. The same is true with fuel or you couldn't flood the engine.

Back fire in the intake good by cell

This is simply "water injection", a technology that's been around since WWII (on aircraft). It helps eliminate predetonation by lowering the combustion chamber (and air intake) temps. I have ideas for something similar, but using HHO instead of water vapor. Good job and keep tweaking it!

Is there any advantage to adding more fog? Perhaps 2 of these things. DId your engine idle rough at all? I used a hand held wand steam thing used for cleaning BBQ's etc and mine ran a little rough for a bit while injecting. |
