We just want to pre-charge the intake air with lighter O, H2, H, OH, radicals to get them distributed in the cylinder during the compression stroke to enhance the combustion of the heavier CxHy fuel.
Personally, I would like to have seen more bench experiments, but my "lackey" promoted himself to Heap Big Chief Field Engineer, and is now flying on his own with his 6 cylinder fuel-injected 1993 GMC pickup. He attached the cell outlet tube to the plumbing that comes out below the butterfly valve on the carburetor. At idle the vacuum almost collapsed the plastic container and sucked liquid into the manifold. He compensated for this by some means that I don't understand yet.. We/He intend to use sensing the liquid level current change on the cell stack to operate a solenoid valve to allow metering makeup water into the cell, otherwise the chicken waterier approach would let the engine suck the 5 gallon reservoir dry in nothing flat. I'll be following this saga closely. :-) Fred . > > Speaking of "visionary vehicles", Malcolm Bricklin, who brought you > Subaru (a good thing) and the Yugo (not a good thing) is bringing to > the US a new line of vehicles from Wuhu China.
