It’s been one hell of a week. Clutch slave cylinder on my chevy cavalier went out. A 20c rubber seal in a sensible car turned into a $250 parts bill due to the cylinder being incorporated into the release bearing. Meant dropping the transmission and no point in just doing the cylinder with that amount of work so a whole new clutch went in.
Also, the chevy does not use a mass airflow sensor (MAF), which would have made calculating MPG an easy task in software. The system I use for data can do that calculation for me, but with only manifold pressure sensor (MAP), I spent a fair bit of time writing my own javascript code to calculate the MPG from the inputs available from the car. This is the car I am using for my experiments with Brown’s gas (Hydroxy) and I want to have real data available for comparison, rather than ‘double mileage’ claims with nothing to back it up. Mileage figures from tank fills tell me the system works, but theres a lot more testing to do, especially in the area of electronics attached to the sensors, to fool the computer. Also a lot more involved in building the generator than a wire coathanger in a jamjar, that some of these ebooks being pimped on the net would have you believe. I know from more than a years experimenting!!
Stay tuned and all will be revealed, with photos, videos and data printouts from the analysis software.

Can you explain your comment about ‘pimping’ e-books on the net?
What is the point in blogging if you don’t want to earn from the advertising on your site?
E-books provide valuable information at a fair price and in the case of our book about hydrogen generation will save the buyer a fortune in gasoline.
I think you are two faced, you have all these adverts on your site yet make stupid comments like in your last post.

Re ‘pimping’ ebooks.
I stick by what I said. Most of the people pushing or pimping the water/gas ebooks have never done anything more than signed up for a clickbank account. They neither experiment or even read the books. Just go for the books with the highest commissions!! That’s pimping.
Advertising??. I had already changed template to one without ads before you commented. However, I will give you the benefit of the doubt on that one as I did have goggle ads on the previous template. I changed because most of the ads were for ebooks about running cars on water, even though I had hardly made any mention of Hydroxy or water in my earlier posts, and felt that they detracted from the information.
You say ‘your book’ I have read several of these ebooks and there is one published by a person with a similar name to yours, but spelled differently. If you are going to troll, try to at least get the name spelt correctly.
That particular book actually contains a great deal of useful information. Unfortunately it also contains far to much hype and one of the worst designed hydroxy generators I have seen.
It either overheats, unless you run 6 or 7 in series, or produces so little hydrogen that it is ineffective. Doesn’t stop people making outrageous claims as to it’s effectiveness though. Probably hoping to sell a few to recoup the costs of the book and their lack of results.
In the future I may end up selling my own design units, and electronics for those cars that need them. However, it will not be until I have finished testing over a longer term, and will probably be just to local customers where I can not only supply, but also install and tune in the system for optimum results.
Right now it is far to early in the testing and development cycle to even think about marketing. Unless I just want to make a quick buck selling ’snake oil’ in book form.
