I can't put my finger on it, but I'm kind of... skeptical...

Buy it and tell us how it works.

Actually if I had a beater car that I didn't care about screwing up I would probably try it.

There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Our revolutionary conversion guide will show you how to use a little electricity from your car's battery to separate water into a gas called => HHO (2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen).

HHO, also referred to as Hydroxy burns effectively and supplies significant energy, while the end product is just Water. HHO has the atomic power of Hydrogen and maintains the stability of Water...

<snort!>

"A little electricity" to crack water into it's component elements, only to recombine them in combustion.

Send me $50 and a car, and I'd be more than happy to try it.

Water injection has been known as a way to increase engine power at least since WWII, when it was used to give an added boost to supercharged aircraft engines . . . though the major mechanism was to forestall detonation.

As for the claims made in the linked ad . . . when it comes to increasing fuel economy by 2/3, I believe the product has every bit as much validity as adding cow magnets to your gas line or putting a scale model of the Great Pyramid of Cheops over your intake manifold.

That is what I was thinking also. A guy I new used it on engines he built because he couldn't readily get high enough octane fuel at the pumps.

Nice scam.

I applause the creator for coming up with good babble and a flashy box to separate fools and their money.
