Comments on: Hydrogen Powered…VEGA?! Well, Almost http://gas2.org/2009/07/21/hydrogen-poweredvega-well-almost/ What is the future of fuel? What's new? What's next? Since 2007, Gas 2 has covered a rapidly changing world coming to terms with its oil addiction.

Browns gas produced, negative air pressure at input center of A/Cleaner. It Does work if you build it right! Do not forget the flash back arrestor!! Cheers Mike Colin — read up b4 open mouth!

I have a 1972 like it that I made into a convertible. The hydrogen gadget looks cool. My Vega with a balanced and built Vega motor gets about 22mpg. The five-speed Vegas used to get 34 mpg on the highway. Cool little car, clever ingenuity. That is a clean Vega! I have a 1972 like it that I made into a convertible. The hydrogen gadget looks cool.

I agree the numbers seem a little hard to believe. This looks too simple to be true. I'm gonna build me one. @Colin: While I’m no expert I remember that the electrolysis process produces oxygen (anode) gas along with the hydrogen (cathode).

I don't buy it. Also, the hydrogen isn't "pumped directly into the stock 2.3 liter motor", it just mixes with the incoming air (or escapes the air cleaner more likely). The addition of hydrogen without the addition of more oxygen or reduction in gasoline would make the engine run too rich, wasting fuel and emitting harmful unburnt hydrocarbons. For some *science*, have a look at this much less hip news magazine: http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/how_to/4276846.html The quality of Gas 2.0 posts is going downhill fast...
