I’ve seen on the internet claims that an inexpensive, hydrogen system can be made and installed on a car to increase the mileage. Also, claims of and additive for cooking oil that makes fuel. What are your thoughts on these claims? Do they work? Is it worth a try? Thanks.
The hydrogen sites lie, pure and simple - doesn’t work. The used vegetable oil into biodiesel can work, but you’ve got to buy some pretty expensive equipement to do it right, line up a source, etc…hard to see how you’d ever save any money.
alternative fools
If something sounds too good to be true, then chances are, it is!
These things are a waste of money. I can send you plans to combine several gas-saving devices so that you can actually PRODUCE fuel while you drive. I can sent you this for the low price of $29.95. But wait, There’s more…!
You should take a look at http://www.mgf.ultimatemg.com/group2/engines/dodgy_stuff/index.htm
Thank you for that site. One referenced there, and written by an automotive engineer, is especially helpful: http://www.fuelsaving.info/index.htm
I was getting withdrawals. Hadn’t seen one of these stupid posts in a week.
just wait till fuel gets over $5/gallon… :X
No, it won’t work. Here’s a list of things that don’t work. The EPA hasn’t found a winner yet.
And I agree with Mike. I miss the HHO foolishness, too! BTW, Mike (and mountainbike), I enjoyed a wonderful ride in the country on Wednesday: Manchester to Durham and back. Great weather, wonderful country.
Of all the fuel saving contraptions and devices hawked in the back pages of a few popular magazines and on the internet, I think there is only one that actually has even a chance to live up to its claims.
Go away, spammer.
