Water For Gas: The Dirty Secret “Big Oil” Kept From The Public

by Dr. Matthew Loop

The cost of gas has skyrocketed out of control. These high gas prices make filling up your gas tank equivalent to buying over a week's worth of groceries, and at the moment it does not appear that relief is in sight.

Those that were hoping for a new type of alternative energy had looked towards hydrogen as one possible solution, but it was quickly found that hydrogen itself was unrealistic, as it was difficult to create, possibly dangerous (explosive) and not at all welcomed by car manufacturers. Yet there is a way to utilize hydrogen power that has recently been sweeping the nation as a way to increase the MPG rating of your car and ultimately save more money.

While hydrogen itself may be difficult to harness, hydrogen is still a useful way to help power your engine. A fuel that uses hydrogen, known as HHO gas, can actually increase the MPG rating of your car, but HHO gas is not created in a lab - it is created using every day H2O.

Using a device that you can make yourself (known as an electrolyzer), you send an electric current straight from your battery and remove a piece of hydrogen from standard tap water. This particle then travels into your gas tank and helps the gasoline fuel your car. By doing this, your car's gas mileage can actually triple, because your car is no longer just using gasoline - it has become a hybrid that uses both gas and hydrogen.

The best part about HHO gas is that after it has been used it converts back to water. Thus you are not only significantly increasing your MPG rating, you are also doing less harm to the environment.

This technology has created cars that use nothing but water as fuel! These electrolyzers have proved incredibly effective, and there have been many examples of only water being used to power some smaller machines, such as torches, using no additional fuel or additives. At the moment, however, HHO is only used as a car supplement, rather than a completely new engine.

Until that day, however, HHO technology is still a form of alternative energy that can help all of us save thousands at the pump. Using water to power cars has the potential to help reduce our dependence on foreign oil, lower the price of gas, and improve the health of the planet, all with a simple new energy source.

While it may be decades or more before car companies accept HHO gas as a viable source of energy to power their cars, it can still be used to help improve the gas mileage of your cars and save you from the high gas prices you experience every day. Someday your car may be made to run on water, but until that day, HHO gas supplements are one of the best ways to save money at the pump.
