The Mythbusters have thoroughly Fraked up the whole idea of hydrogen or water injection because of their bogus "busting"
Too many people on the Internets think water to gas is some nutjob scheme to run a car engine on nothing but water. Obviously if there isnt a Mr Fusion in there as well it is impossible.
The truth is if someone gave a read at the various material on in car hydrogen production out there the reason to do that is to enhance the energy gain from the chemical reaction from petrol.
You know what octane is right? The higher it is the better and cleaner the burn and less "knock" or out of sequence firing.
Proper water vapor and hydrogen injection enhance octane as well as the hydrogen ensuring far less fuel is lost due to incomplete combustion.
However it almost all modern cars a fuel air mixture which is handled by the onboard computer which is UNLAWFUL to tamper with. Therefore the only legal and useful way Watergas can be used in my opinion is with pre-computer carburetor vehicles.
This in my opinion is an example of it in use
Tho I question if the police did it right as normally with a car with an onboard computer the computer thinks the mixture is off because the output is too clean. And adjusts which oftentimes causes a loss of MPG overall due to outlandish changes in mixture. There are mods to fix the issue but unless the town or state has not passed laws that limit tampering with the onboard computer. I wonder if they did it right.
