Hydro 4000 Follow-up

Remember my post about the Hydro 4000 which breaks down water into hydrogen and oxygen gas?

WPTV a local tv station tried to test the company's claims after a previous test was not conclusive caused by a mechanical problem.

Anyway, the Hydro 4000 was tested on a 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe.

Without Hydro 4000:

This time around, the F.A.U. engineers and mechanics at Billet drained all of the fuel out of our test vehicle, giving it an empty tank.

The team then filled the tank back up with one and a half gallons of gas.

The vehicle was put on the dynomometer, and the truck ran at 65 miles an hour until it stalled.

For the first part of our test, the Tahoe ran 17.7 miles, which meant it averaged 11-point eight miles to the gallon.

With Hydro 4000

They again drained all the fuel out, put in one and a half gallons of gas and ran the truck at 65 miles an hour until it stalled.

This time, with the Hydro 4000 running, the vehicle ran 19.5 miles before stalling. That meant we were now getting 13 miles to the gallon, which was a ten percent increase in miles to the gallon over our initial test.

The fuel comsumption increased from 11.9 mpg to 13.0 mpg with the Hydro 4000. A 10% increase.

The Hydro costs 1200$, do the math and decide if it's worth it for you!
