                        Awsome !! I am curious about the HHO gene.
                        I have a '89 and would like to install a HHO gene. I am a little nervious.
                        Where did you get yours, or did you make it. What about the ox sensor?

                          Just make one, they are simple and easy. They use about a quart of water an hour if
                          set up properly. You need a reservoir big enough for your needs, you do have to add
                          water. If you use electrolyte you do not have to worry about freezing. You should install gauges and breakers for safety. You should keep the stored volume of HHO to a minimum, again for safety. It is real easy to accumulate the equivalent of a stick
                          of dynamite. That can be a lot of fun...when planned!!!

                            Yea I built my own HHO Generator I haven't yet been able to calculate any gains due to my rusted out gas tank. I will eventually replace it. As far as I was able to calculate so far I am getting around 43mpg plus I have to install a pulse width modulator because of how much hydrogen is produced after the plates warm up.

                              Yes, if you have a hot mix anything over 15 amps per gallon of generator area will
                              simply boil the water. I use a reservoir to cool the water in the generator and to
                              recapture any water being pushed by the hho.

                              been throwing around ideas like using tuning forks with a matching pizo for plates
                              or using a ignition coil on each plate with a controllable pulse modulator tied into
                              engine load.

                              When too much hho is sent to the engine at low power demands the exhaust starts
                              sounding like it has firecrackers in it.
