Convert your car to burn water, Part 2
05/02/08 @ 02:37:59 pm, Categories: News, 697 words   English (US)

I recently wrote about how you can make a simple change to your car or truck to double your gas mileage.

You can read that post here.

It doesn’t have a lot to do with architecture. It’s more in the Sustainability category, or even the Taking Personal Responsibility category.

(Or how about the Quit Getting Ripped Off at the Pump category?)

Turns out, that post was one of the more popular of my postings, so I thought I’d tell you more about it.

In my post, I told you about a proprietary system for getting more miles or kilometers to the gallon.

You can do this with simple parts that you buy at Home Depot.

And you get the easy-to-follow instructions here.

Want to hear from someone who’s already done this?

I was looking for a way to decrease my gas expenses and I know it’s no easy task. Let me briefly share my story where I started in this process.

About 2 years ago I was tired of spending a ton of money on gas for the truck I was driving. So decided to buy a small gas economic car. Right away I almost doubled my MPG.

Finally, I was smiling while at the gas station as I watched the digital cash cow roll up on the gas pump.

But, after time went by I realized how much I missed driving my truck, especially during the winter and became a little tired of driving a small car around.

Thought this car could also be used as our 2nd family car, not the case we quickly found out.

So, the question became how do I drive the vehicle I want, while meeting my families needs and still reduce gas expenses?

My wife called me crazy at first, and to be honest I was slightly skeptical about using water for gas.

I made the decision to personally put together the system and tried it out on my older car… Amazingly enough within the first week I had a 82% increase in MPG.

Instantly we became believers and was so excited about this discovery that I decided to find a way to help other people Save on Gas expenses too.

To Your Gas Savings!

Get the directions.

My car is an 1986 Subaru GL. I bought her originally in 1989.

Two weeks ago I agreed to have the gas saving device put on my car. Immediately I noticed that the engine was much, much quieter and smoother.

We did a test drive on the car with and without the device. The results were spectacular. The Subaru does 32.8 miles to the gallon. With the device - which is only the very basic fitting - the Subaru did 36.8 miles to the gallon, a saving of twelve and a half percent. With the rest of the equipment that Ozzie has now I estimate I would save circa 40%.

What was really noticeable on this test drive was the difference in the quietness of the engine and how the car picked up much more easy with the device installed.

Since then, I have noticed that the car continues to improve and I feel she is back to where she was in 1989. Feels like a new car!!

I am very pleased to have this device on my car which will not only save on the gas, but clean the engine, reduce emissions into the environment, and therefore give my car a longer life, as I love my Subi.. Also this will help because this year I have to have a complete smog test to go with my application for my registration renewal.

It’s very simple. You don’t change your engine or computer. A quart-size (95O cc) container is placed somewhere under the hood. You fill it with DISTILLED WATER and a little bit of BAKING SODA. The device gets vacuum and electricity (12 Volts) from the engine, and produces HHO gas (Hydrogen+Oxygen) as shown in the MUCH QUIETER video below.

The best Saturday Project Ever.

What is Architecture Addiction?
We know how it is. There's all these beautiful places all over the world you'd like to go see. Money's tight. Your schedule's weird. You've got this little architecture addiction and no good way to relieve that itch to go see it for yourself. So we arrange field trips. That's what we do. We try to schedule them all throughout the year, and we try to do it on the cheap. And we include airfare, so there's one less thing you gotta worry about. We're architecture students, like you (or not like you if you're not an architecture student but are addicted to architecture just the same). Basically we get you where you need to be so that you can do what you gotta do. While we're off searching the world for the best opportunities for you and your addiction, we've started this blog to keep you up to speed on what's happening with Architecture Addiction...and what's happening in architecture. Learn more about us.
