URGENT! WATER AS FUEL DISCOVERY FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE

[happyvalley808]

Hey HV,

    '96 Suburban, 5.7 Lt. fuel injected OBD2. There will need to be some ECM fooling required, no doubt. I'm game, at this point, for almost anything. I WILL do whatever it takes to win!! If the computer presents too much of a problem, I will yank it and kick it to the curb! I always liked a good carb better  anyway, no way it will beat me, not this far in the game. Later................................Mike

Mike,

I like the way you think !!...I agree

Keep us posted .....I will soon try the "VexUs" circuit in my 93' Toyota T-100 ..

Regards,

HV

A small bench test just to see..................

    I just ran 5,800 rpm for about five minutes, then grabbed the end of the plug where all that FIRE just was, still cold. All the diodes and caps stayed cold as well. I'll do a longer test tomorrow, at a more reasonable rpm, (you shouldn't be making 5,800 rpm anyway unless you're running from the cops, which I strongly advise against!) to see if there is any heat built up anywhere. I don't really expect to find any at only 1uF though. I think this will be a very reliable, real world circuit.......................Mike

Emmm....
Maybe there will be some differences. Here in Greece, we use 230v AC. So I may not be able to find a 110v AC inverter.
So what rates of the capacitors and the resistor should I use?? For sure they must be over 500v but what capacity??

For sure plugs will be non resistor, and the diodes will be fed directly on the top of the spark plug. (too low budget to buy racing wires....don't forget I am still a high school student)

Thanks for the support,

Hi Zissis (cool name)

Don't worry.  This stuff works better on higher voltage anyway.  Just cut down on C1 and increase R1 accordingly for an even greater effect at your higher 230VAC voltage!

Try C1 = 10uF to 22uF and R1 = 200 to 600 ohms, and around 80 - 120 Watts  (maybe a light bulb).  You'll have to test for heat at run time.

For cost consideration, try diode strings instead of HV diodes (microwave replacement diodes are somewhat costly).

Peace,

Greg

@gmeast - Hi.  Just watched your VW Beetle video - not sure as to the 'groups' current progress, is this actually running on water, or are you just taking its normal HV and 'modifying' it via the VexUs circuitry to show us what the 'running' plasma modification looks like?  Although running an ICE just on water must be the ultimate aim, I have an old '94 Peugeot that I am really curious to see how using the plasma spark circuirty would effect its normal fuel consumption!  Thanks.

Thanks Luc,

More to come, just waiting on parts. Later...............................................Mike

Ya , I'm also still waiting for parts: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=270276765928  see my name in the Purchases list. Paid for these diodes September 21st and still aren't in yet. Must be on the slow boat from China
