The amount of hydrogen compared to the volume of air and diesel is to small to make a difference.
Running heavy electrical system will stress your alternators, which in turn burns more fuel and will cause a early demise of the alternator.
If really want to go down this road buy a tank of hydrogen and run a line into your intake. This will allow you to control the flow. Producing hydrogen in Mass quantities is cheaper the producing it on the fly.
The computer fuel system should also be adjusted for the amount of hydrogen.
If you really want to increase mileage and performance you should look at CNG solution. Those do work.
Save your money and time.

I'm just playing with the hydrogen. Trying to look beyond cng. With anything it takes time and research. I know there is a lot more water available than gas. Im just tired of being at the mercy of big business. My main purpose is to develope better computer programs to make these engines more efficient. The less fuel I have to purchase the better. I've had success with this even tho it is only a few
mpg increase it is still an increase. I drive a 1000 miles/week. The 7mpg increase I got on my Saturn is huge to me. The system only cost me $500.

I can see a 5 mpg change in mileage just by how I drive it. By adding a mod to increase Mpg's it is quite possible you were doing other things that actually improved your mileage like driving slower(which leads to less braking), keeping rpms down, slower acceleration, etc.

This is the same as saying that you're not going to believe in gravity.if I point out that it is going to affect you whether or not you believe in it I'm starting an argument and working against you instead of helping you.
That is a good fuel economy increase. Hydrogen didn't cause it. I've said enough here, there is no more left to say to someone that doesn't want to recognize the real world.

Hydrogen generators have been around for years. Hey, if it works for you, great. It has been tried by a few folks on he too if I'm not mistaken. But no real results. I for one am curious how it works out for you. I hope it does work. I admit I'm skeptical, but I wish you success.

No problem. Just explain how I got a 7mpg increase on my Saturn VUE and a 6mpg increase on my 99 chevy truck with a 6.0. These are the facts I've proven to myself. That's why I'm working on this system. I'm not asking you to purchase one. I don't care what you have read or what you believe. I just asked a simple question and wanted a simple answer. Why does everything have to develope into an argument. This is why I hate these forums. There is always someone wanting to work against everyone instead of helping.
- Wishful thinking.
- Difference in time of day and outside air tems.
- Trafic on the route.
Good luck with that....
You might also put helium in the tires as well.. Makes the truck lighter and easier to move - requiring less power... Oh yeah and the fuel line magnets and turbulator intake...
It won't be long and you'll be manufacturing gas instead of burning it!
------
Now for a dose of reality dear friend... There's no such thing as a free lunch, free puppy, free energy or perpetual motion.. Look into BTU content of hydrogen in comparison to gasoline.
A little tough to compare a liquid with a gas, but there are plenty of references on the www to get you started.

faster then air of a nitrogen fill do to the size of the molecule.
He could just remove the tail gate for less weight.
they have the charges loaded on the back end of things. In this case engine
load to generate the power to split the bonds.
This is the fallacy that is used to sell these systems. There is no such thing as unused power. The voltage regulator controls the alternator to produce exactly the power required at any instant. If you add a load, such as a hydrogen generator, the alternator produces more power, which increases the load it places on the engine. The engine has to produce more power to turn the alternator, which uses more fuel.
You are not going to get around the laws of physics just because you wish it works that way.

If the guy wants to really do some research he needs to get a chassis dyno
and a place that can be environmentally controlled to run tests on to prove
that this works. But I think all he will do is transfer money from one pocket
to some other pocket that is not his.
Also if it really worked then why are we not seeing it on things on the
road now? Junk science just like what the government likes to use to
get you to pay more for things that don't make any improvements at all.
