I haven’t actually tried it. ..but the theory that makes it work is legit. I suggest going to their website to read about it. The technology behind it is rather interesting.
btw..the son of one of my dad’s friends is a mechanical engineer and plans on doing this to his vehicle.

It’s obviously a scam. They claim to put electricity (produced from your alternator using gasoline) into the water, and then burn the water to produce water + energy. It’s a lie, but even if it were true, you still couldn’t possibly get any energy other than what you put in to start with. It starts with water (liquid) and ends up with water (steam) so you’d actually lose at least the amount of energy required to boil water.
I hope this makes sense, but probably not, or else they wouldn’t be in business.
Now, does that mean water injection is a bad thing? Not really. But that’s just water in a jar, going through your engine and cleaning out carbon. No magic, no $97, no scam, and no free energy.
I spent weeks trying out different HHO gens (all from ebay -including the WATER4GAS design) and each one works so much differently. The ones in PVC pipes usually output a decent amount of gas (depending directly upon what electrolyzer you use in the water) but their crude design does not allow you to see what’s going on inside and you cannot tell if your mix is doing good or not.
Then there are the wire designs (like the water4gas), which put out okay – but not at all adequate to make a huge MPG impact.
I finally built one using the best qualities of different models all put together, and I output around 1.5-1.75 litres/minute – which is really good for the size of the generator and for the electrolyte I am using.
There are many factors involved in whether an HHO generator will work well or not. The major factors are:
1. what are the electrodes made of, how well will they conduct electricity and how quickly will they corrode?
2. What electrolyte mixture are you using in the water (electrolyte is required to make the water conduct electricity to split the hydrogen and oxygen)
3. how much oxygen are you involving in the gas out to the engine?
4. How many o2 sensors does your vehicle have and how will they react to the extra oxygen they will detect? (sometimes the o2 sensors will detect more oxygen and increase your fuel ratio to compensate for it – I personally have not had this problem, but have heard others record it)
Speaking from my personal experience with the generator I now use and build, I have literally TRIPLED my gas mileage.
At first, with a cheaply-built generator – I only got a 23% increase on MPG. But now with my new design, I have tripled my gas mileage.
So yes, it does work if you have the right Generator and if you know a little about the process.
Here is an article about some of the technology being used by MIT scientists. This project began as a process to put water in a holding tank and run it through a series of grids that will separate the hydrogen and running a diesel engine off of the hydrogen. Thus emitting water from the tail pipe. The problem is that it is very difficult to charge someone for water so the emphasis has been turned to hydrogen fuel cells with stations that charge for the hydrogen. It is my understanding that this was initially test in the bus fleet of a US city. The patent on the cell that broke the water into hydrogen was then purchased by an oil company and we have thus lost the ability to duplicate it without the use of petroleum energy to split the hydrogen off. It is for real and not a scam, but it threatens alot of very wealthy people’s ability to get wealthier. I’m sorry I can’t find a link to the original story with a simplified breakdown of how it works. I seens all info has been removed from the net.
This myth is really making the rounds lately – must be the $3.50 + + gas prices that’s fueling the hype (pun intended).
The truth be told, the only way to get your vehicle to run on water is to attach pontoons to both sides of it and take it to a local boat launch.
Water4Gas is similar to a device tested by our local news station, WPTV. They got almost a 60% increase in mpg.
