    As far as long term effect not sure if there were any I never noticed any issues, but then again I didn't tear down my engine to inspect it for any damage either. So I'm not sure of any.

    No need to get your panties all in a bunch. We are a group of skeptics here, and we have every right to be. You can defend your case by pounding your keyboard until your fingers bleed. Flat out, we still won't believe you. Something like this needs concrete proof to even hold a candle around here. To be perfectly honest, we don't handle bullshit at all. You missed a shitstorm that rolled through just a couple days ago even. Show us some good stuff, and there will still be the skeptics, but many are likely to embrace the idea at least as a possible help to a common problem.

    And you are confident enough in it to install it in your tacoma as well... That is a goos start. Can you do me a favor then? Figure out your avg gas mileage on your tacoma for one entire week. Keep receipts, record mileage, etc. Install the unit. Then do approximately the same driving style and routes as you used before and report back to us. Solid evidence goes a long ways.

    Look. It's as simple as this. I heard that there is no breathable air in space... it is supposed to be a scientific fact... I don't need to go into space to find this out as I'm pretty sure the whole scientific community of the planet is not feeding the masses some great lie. The fact is you have no facts, pictures or evidence of any kind, while the whole scientific world says that these devices simply do not work as you and others all over the net have claimed. This is also not the first thread on TW to have these devices mentioned. Here are some links to save others from searching, although I'm sure a more thorough search may turn up more.

    Well if you are so hell bent on insisting that I am wrong and that this is all just a waste of time why don't you try to prove us all wrong. Do your own experiment and show us it didn't work for you. Jack Nicholson made a old chevy in 1978 run soely on hydrogen. Just watch it on you tube.(jack nicholson hydrogen car) Just like when the Electric car was the big invention and the government and scientist shut that down because it worked and look at us now begging for this kind of stuff to better the economy and produce vehicles with no petrolium dependance.

    Take these guys lightly. I would be interested in seeing a set up though, and that's all I really want. Its the Internet, and everyone has an opinion so just let em do what the want to do. I'd love some pics though and that's all I'm gonna say.

    I never said a hydrogen powered car would not work and had links to both the BMW and Honda you spoke of in a earlier post. Please learn to read if you want others to read what you have to say, or stand accused of being a troll. And just like your other examples, the car Jack Nicholson drove also has nothing to do with what you claim to be doing. None of these cars were powered by "producing" the hydrogen on board, they fueled up. So once again properly introduce yourself and show everyone pictures of what you have set up as you seem to be hell-bent on telling me I'm wrong, or be labeled a FRAUD.

    I'm not sure if there are still as many DIY youtube videos of this out there but about 2 years ago I had seen quite a few with average Joes from across the US and I think in other countries demoing their conversions.

    Perhaps these people had themselves fooled or were trying to fool others - most weren't making videos to sell products they made but were just showing people their work/that it was possible?

    One could suggest that these people are just bored and want to fool with people but I find that really unlikely, especially if they're NOT selling something.

    This argument shouldn't be used as proof alone but if enough people are out there claiming they have done it, and showing video of their setup, that should count for something.

    Also, the reason we're not hearing about it on a large, open public scale is cause it obviously runs counter to the interests of those in the Petroleum business who pretty much own (by power and influence) whatever country they have play in.

    I really doubt the whole scientific community is in the back pocket of the petroleum interests. Did you look at any of the links I left in my posts?

    I'm not sure the whole scientific community is researching or paying attention to the topic. I did see the links you provided; interesting/good refuting evidence from fellow posters.

    I think putting any salesmen companies aside, lots of people seem to claim it is working - maybe they're just kidding themselves but given the history of suppressing things for profits, done by and participated by governments, companies, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if it was on the hush.

    America rulez!!!
