A HHO gas devices are a new innovative way to improve gas mileage. These gas devices are easy to make at home and can be made from many items found around a shop or around town in you local hardware or automotive store. Home made HHO gas devices can easily be built and can be replicated for other cars and trucks. Your car or truck will be a water hybrid of sorts running on gasoline and water. This also works well with diesel fuel on larger engines it may be required to have more than one of these HHO gas devices.
HHO generators make HHO gas by a process called electrolysis. HHO generators are filled with water and a catalyst such a baking soda and when added helps the process by producing hydroxy or better known as HHO gas. Electrolysis occurs when a current is passed over metal plates or wires usually made from stainless steel. The result is a gas that produces a lot of energy in the form of HHO gas. Maintenance usually requires adding a few ounces of water to the fuel cell and some catalyst about once a month or when needed.
HHO generators create a gas also known a oxyhydrogen or simply hydroxy. This gas is a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen. This gaseous mixture is commonly used for welding purposes. This powerful gas is mixed before the combustion chamber of an engine and usually introduced before the manifold. It may sound complex but it really is a simple engine modification and leaves little evidence if you should later decide to remove the kit. HHO generators have been used for several decades experimentally on diesel and gasoline burning engines.
When you review fuel saving devices that may help increase gas mileage consider adding a HHO gas kit. HHO gas kits require very little room under the hood of your car or truck and can be used on both diesel and gas burning engines and the savings can be substantial when you improve gas mileage.
Home made HHO generators or HHO fuel cells can be made from free plans found online but some miss a few important items. The most important is a way to compensate for an oxygen sensor on some car or truck models. The oxygen sensor is found on the exhaust side of the engine and helps keep you fuel to air ratio optimal and is constantly adjusting for optimal mileage. Without this one device supplied you may end up with a decrease in gas mileage and a rough running engine.
It is amazing how many people are willing to spend 3 to 10 dollars for a a fuel additive that may increase gas mileage and remove carbon on the valves and help keep fuel injectors clean. It is recommended that they be added every 3000 miles or so. HHO gas by nature should keep carbon from building up. I should also help keep your combustion chambers cleaner along with fuel injectors. When you have less carbon buildup you engine runs cooler and is more fuel efficient.
The major benefits of HHO gas is it not only increases efficiency but because of an efficiency increase reduces emissions. This should lead to less pollution. Because of increased engine efficiency you could see increased horse power and many even notice a quieter engine. When you research the technology the typical increase in mileage is about 15 to 40 percent. On some vehicles some are seeing upwards of 100 percent.
HHO gas kits can be home made from decent plans. These kits can be made from parts if your thrifty enough for under 100 dollars. When you know how to build a HHO gas kit you can also replace parts as needed and duplicate the system. What you often do not get is the information to deal with the oxygen sensor and step by step instructions with pictures to install the HHO gas kits. The main benefit if installing a kit is to increase gas mileage.
HHO generators as stated are not really that new as far as improving gas mileage. It is not unusual to see HHO generators costing upwards of several hundred dollars not including installation. I have to stress this point again free HHO plans do not always give you all the information you need or step by step details on how to install a HHO generator on your engine with photos.
