Guest lundboy Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Your only other option is a chip kit, K&N, high flow exhaust etc. All of these will help with mileage (and performance). I've tried them all at one point, all were safe and did make a difference, some small some big. Something like this (or google for others) http://www.speedwaymotors.com/m/858_Truck-...ance-Chips.html Be sure to research the chips if you decide to go that way. Some require other engine changes.
oncogene Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 (edited) I have my truck.. but I drive the car for the commute.. Brian... Google HHO This is the future. That will not be the future. Hydrogen & Oxygen..... sounds free.... but no, not really. Where do u get the hydrogen & oxygen? From electrolysis of water. What do you use to electrolyse water? Electricity. How you get electricity? By burning gas & coal and what not. So in reality, all hydrogen is really another form of transporting energy, it's NOT a new energy SOURCE. Same thing with all these "bio-fuel" that is make from corn or whatever. It's stupid. Sure it's cleaner. But it's not another new energy source at all. To grow corn what u need? Fertilizers. What does fertilizer come from? Oil. Not to mention all the machinery and labour, all of which cost alot of energy, to grow and maintain the crops. Edited May 31, 2008 by oncogene

Not to mention all the machinery and labour, all of which cost alot of energy, to grow and maintain the crops. Really?Can't you get electricity from a battery? Also solar energy may be another form of energy not required by burning coal. Hydrogen is not only not a new energy source? Its the oldest known energy source. The sun has been burning off it for millenniums. And you don't need machinery to mine coal or oil and convert it to energy?? And fertilizer comes from oil??? All I know is what we have now is obviously not working. Can you imagine growing your own fuel in your backyard? There are countries where farmers are allowed to run their vehicles off of vegetables. But they are not allowed on main roads. Probably because they lack the umph to get them up to high speeds. I think ethanol has potential to make up for the umph of gasoline.

Gerritt Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 http://commonsenselogic.blogspot.com/2008/...in-his-own.html http://www.world-check.com/articles/2008/0...ulate-gliobal-/ HHO is the future, Water is the most abundant thing on our planet, Batteries run the electrolysis units... easily done as once momentum is created it is simple to recharge the battery.. just as your car does now.. instead of filling up with 100 litres of petrol, you now fill up with 100 litres of water. now.. this does not have to be treated city water either.. bottled, or even salt water will do.. I fail to see the downside in clean renewable energy from our planets most abundant resource. G
Canuck2fan Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 (edited) A perfect cheap renewable source of energy to convert water into to hydrogen is tidal power. You then use the hydrogen to produce more electricity then you use electric cars.... Two problems it cuts out the oil companies so it ain't going to happen and the second reason is it would take a lot of co-operation between the provinces to run the extra power grids and we are just too stupid as Canadians to worry about ourselves first. The coastal provinces could produce the electricity. Quebec and Ontario could make the vehicles. Alberta, Saskatchewan could still export their oil to the U.S. Manitoba well they still have the peg and polar bear tours in Churchill so they are covered. All the technology is available it all works so what is the problem holding us back.. Lack of leadership. The only crop that makes any sense for bio fuel is hemp and you don't won't ever hear Harper talking about using marijuana for fuel so that is out too.... Edited May 31, 2008 by Canuck2fan
misfish Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Posted May 31, 2008 Ok you guys know what Im going to do now,just dont cut into my action or you,ll get a 410 salt blast up yer It would seem I have created a monster here. Sorry for that.

Sorry for that. So Brian did you buy the Crestliner Edited May 31, 2008 by Mike the Pike
misfish Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Posted May 31, 2008 So Brian did you buy the Crestliner Nope,not yet.I seen this other boat now . What is one to do with so many to chose from.
nancur373 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Just picked up a Civic last week. The GMC is going up on the market soon
danbouck Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 Nope,not yet.I seen this other boat now . What is one to do with so many to chose from. Either way you should run the engine off HHO
shane Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 Either way you should run the engine off HHO A boat motor that uses water for fuel?
danbouck Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 A boat motor that uses water for fuel? Patent Pending
Guest lundboy Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 These things are just springing up all over the place, one of them has to work: http://water4gas.com/2books.htm
glen Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 I am not too sure about the water to gas thing. The pill that you put in your gas tank must work though. Good luck.
shane Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Or The Joe Cell. This one is really weird, but there is a lot of of people (especially in Australia) that really believe this is the answer. It's using water but it's different than HHO (I think) http://www.thejoecell.com/ Edited June 1, 2008 by fireball
shane Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 Here's a video of the Joe Cell thing. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value=" name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
misfish Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Posted June 2, 2008 OK that was a very cool clip . I have no knowledge about this kind of stuff,but it was very educating and man that was sooooo cool. I still have my truck up for hire,that need it.LOL
