HHO gas kits are a great way to increase gas mileage. These gas kits can be made at home and most of the part can be found at home, around the shop or at local stores around town. Homemade HHO gas kits allow you the ability to replicate the kit and replace the parts in the system as needed. If you buy custom HHO gas kits your ability to replace parts is limited should there be a failure in the system. When you install HHO gas kits on a car or truck you would have a water hybrid car or truck that runs on gasoline and water. HHO gas kits work on both gasoline and diesel engines and a larger HHO gas kit with more fuel cells may be required on a larger engine.

HHO generators make HHO gas by a process called electrolysis. HHO generators are filled with water and a catalyst such a baking soda and when added helps the process by producing hydroxy or better known as HHO gas. Electrolysis occurs when a current is passed over metal plates or wires usually made from stainless steel. The result is a gas that produces a lot of energy in the form of HHO gas. Maintenance usually requires adding a few ounces of water to the fuel cell and some catalyst about once a month or when needed.

HHO gas kits produce a gas called hydroxy that should help with the process of combustion. Hydroxy is then introduced to the engine in the air intake before the manifold and this is where is is mixed. This is simple engine modification and leaves little trace should you lated unistall the kit when you decide to sell the vehicle. HHO gas has used in many applications for over 40 years including welding. HHO gas also known as hydroxy or Brown’s gas has been used experimentally and by entrepreneurs.

When you review fuel saving devices that may help increase gas mileage consider adding a HHO gas kit. HHO gas kits require very little room under the hood of your car or truck and can be used on both diesel and gas burning engines and the savings can be substantial when you improve gas mileage.

Home made HHO generators or HHO fuel cells can be made from free plans found online but some miss a few important items. The most important is a way to compensate for an oxygen sensor on some car or truck models. The oxygen sensor is found on the exhaust side of the engine and helps keep you fuel to air ratio optimal and is constantly adjusting for optimal mileage. Without this one device supplied you may end up with a decrease in gas mileage and a rough running engine.

Many people are willing to spend several dollars for a gasoline additive that helps keep carbon from building up and possibly increase gas mileage. HHO gas is something that will could help carbon buildups from forming and help keep your engine clean. When you motor is clean of carbon buildups it runs coolers and smoother and helps extent its life.

The major benefits of HHO gas is it not only increases efficiency but because of an efficiency increase reduces emissions. This should lead to less pollution. Because of increased engine efficiency you could see increased horse power and many even notice a quieter engine. When you research the technology the typical increase in mileage is about 15 to 40 percent. On some vehicles some are seeing upwards of 100 percent.

A home made HHO generator or fuel cell is easy to build when you have a good set of detailed plans. When you know how to build a HHO gas generator you can build it for several vehicles and possibly do it for under 100 dollars. With detailed step by step instructions and pictures this would make a nice weekend project. Increasing gas mileage or miles per gallon is just one of the many benefits that an HHO generator can supply.

HHO gas kits may not be you best solution to increasing gas mileage. Some HHO gas kits can cost hundreds sometimes thousands installed. With the correct detailed plans and I stress this again for a point do not always give you all the information you need. You should be using plans that have detailed instructions and photos when you build HHO car kits.
