Since you’ve apparently posted before about this scam either you’re a shill for it or you’re intent on flushing your money away. If the latter, then have at it. ---

SCAM! Internal combustion engines cannot burn water. And don’t tell me about separating the hydrogen from the water. SCAM! ---

Didn’t Hyde on 70’s Show always claim that the government had a car that ran on water? ---

They’re still hiding that 200 mpg carburetor, too. Not to mention the alien spacecraft. ---

Yes, you can run an engine on Water! You first have to heat it and turn it into steam. Then it will run a STEAM ENGINE, which is only 8% efficient compared to a gasoline engine at about 30%. You’ve beenwatching too many science fiction and Walt Disney movies; wishing something was true does not make it so. ---

Oh, what a bunch of skeptics. I’ve seen cars run on water - everytime I catch clips of flooding events on TV. All you need without a flood is strong running river. Of course, I’d rather run a boat on water - I think they stay afloat longer. ---
