I originally did it in school over 10 years ago as a lab project, just trapping hydrogen and oxygen in seperate containers and then igniting themfor fun. I came back to the HHO-in-a-car idea after I seen a bunch of people on the net talking about it again, and a TV reporter did a story on one and tried it in a Scion, and got great results.

I never heard of them. What are they supposed to do exactly? I figured it has something to do with saving gas.

Basically, you submerge the plates you see (wired positive, negative, positive, negative, etc) in distilled water, with 5% vinegar or potassium nitrate, or baking soda as a catalyst. Run 12 volts DC through the plates, with half of them grounded. The electricity through the water turns the water into Hydrogen gas, and Oxygen gas. The gas then gets sucked into the intake of the car, and burns in the combustion chamber with the gasolene for a more efficient burn. But basically all you have to fill it with is water.

So thats been proven to work in cars making them more efficient? I wonder why the big auto makers dont install those in their cars.

There are a few different theories why they dont use more of them. Canada, India, and China have installed them on many of their semis to save fuel costs. Not really sure what the deal is with them to be honest, only the auto companies could answer that question I guess.
