Absolutely bogus, a scam, a ripoff. Go to the ‘search’ box and type in HHO, and read all about this nonsense. ---

The long-term problems are in the area of your wallet, once it has lost the money that you wasted if you bought into this scam pseudo-science. Do you recall the old saying, “A fool and his money are soon parted”? Don’t be a fool. ---

SCAM! Nothing more. Don’t waste your money. Buy the magnets for your fuel line instead, or the “pills” that you drop in your gas tank. Those work. I guarantee it. But not the hydrogen systems. They’re worthless. KIDDING! Just kidding. NONE of the add-on devices you see advertised will increase fuel mileage. They are all scams, designed only to relieve you of your hard-earned money. Don’t fall for any of them. ---

The only addition that really works is the Incredible Edible Egg, Put one on your dash and try not to let it roll off.
