Water4Petrol Water4cars -Scam or Miracle?

Yes, it's too expensive and the government should improve Public transport.

I did hear rumours - I don't know how true they are - That Honda have designed and created a car that runs solely on water from the tap. However, I can only assume that this runs on a totally different engines to the ones in modern cars! (if it is even true!)

I can guarantee you 100% that this rumour is not true.

I love how people presume that oil is only used in cars, and that alternative technologies are stymied by the oil industry for this reason.

If there was an alternative and economically viable way of powering a vehicle by means other than oil, it would be out there right now. The oil industry wouldn't die if such a vehicle existed. Oil would still be required in massive quantities for all its other uses.

Oh and LMAO at patman99 suggesting that burning hydrogen is the same as burning water.

Yes but, as I was saying, it is a simple matter of the laws of thermo dynamics specifically - Energy cannot be created or destroyed.


The amount of energy required to produce the hydrogen will be equivelent to the energy you get back when you burn it. Since the process will not be 100% efficient the energy you get back from burning the hydrogen will not be as much as you used to make the Hydrogen in the first place.

Since the energy to make the hydrogen ultimately comes from the engine (via the electrical system) you will be using more petrol to make the hydrogen. When you burn the hydrogen you wont get as much energy out compared with the equivelent amount of petrol you used to make it.

My name is Barries and I build and install these Electrolizyrs in SA - if anybody whant more info to understand I can show you - not tell or explain - show and proof that you will get at least 2 Km per liter extra on petrol engines and 1 km per lit on diesel

Go on then, I & the whole forum await your [strike]spam[/strike] information.

Please don't be gullible enough to PM this user.

Yes, please do show me how you have overcome the laws of physics.

What a load of utter !!!!!!!!. There is no such thing as free energy.

"which defies Faradays Law which states that the amount of gas derived from the electrolysis of water is limited by the current applied... true to an extent, but if you use neutral electrodes the output rises with less current (amps) needed."

That sentence appears to suggest a form of perpetual motion which as we all know is a load of garbage.

Oh and if you wouldn't mind telling us what 'Hydroxygen' is, since it seems to be a form of matter unknown to science.

While you're at it, explain how the alternator supplies energy to a battery - personally I thought it was a transducer and not a source.

Or maybe you're just a spambot.

how do you know what my instructor said to me?
it certainly wasnt "gas pedal" maybe a more british term like accelerator or throttle.
petrol isnt gas and doesnt get turned into gas.its still petrol,just atomised.
maybe you should understand the basic principles of current fuel injection systems before pouring some evian in your tank.

My instructor said gas pedal because they don't want you to think about accelerating as much as contolling the revs, my bike instructor called it the throttle though (both very long ago) but "gas" as Septics call it is petroleum spirit - a liquid not a gas. It's short for gasoline* or as we call it "petrol".

I think the scientist who first distilled it was called Mr. Gas, but that could have been one of my Grandfathers "wee stories".

No doubt in years to come when some bright spark comes up with a electrolysis machine small enough but powerful enough to do the job we will have cars like that.

NB one of the first guys to run a car on 'home' modified water (hydrogen) was mysteriously killed.
