Can Cars Really Run On Water?
Americans are fuming about gas prices. We need two things; someone to blame and a quick, easy solution. Nobody wants to take the blame, but this is America! So entrepreneurs offering solutions are already lining up. One of the most interesting options is the “Run Your Car On Water” concept.
Online sellers will send you the information and/or the parts you need to convert your car to run on water. They claim their systems are easy to install. It’s all perfectly legal, and it almost works. And they claim it only costs $100 to $300.
Conspiracy and Confusion
Conversion kit sellers claim oil companies have tried to keep the water-as-fuel technology a secret. And of course, frustrated drivers are all too ready to believe it.
“Run Your Car On Water” promoters also associate their products with hydrogen fuel cells, which are indeed a bona fide energy source. But the conversion kits are just playing at this technology, and the results are negligible.
The idea that your car “runs on water” is a bit of a misnomer. The conversion kits don’t actually promise to replace gasoline with water. They only claim to make your gasoline engine more efficient.
The system draws electricity produced by your engine and runs it through a jug of water. As you may have learned in high school, an electric current separates water into its two elements: hydrogen and oxygen. Conversion kits don’t do this very effectively, so their sellers claim only that the systems create something called “HHO gas.” That gas is then carried to the engine’s air intake, sucked into the engine and, hopefully, burned.
Trouble is, the amounts of hydrogen and oxygen produced in this process are fairly insignificant. Since gasoline engines aren’t designed to burn anything besides gasoline, spitting other elements into their intakes isn’t entirely proven to help. In fact, it may even have unintended consequences, including corrosion and other potential engine troubles.
Real Answers
The answers to the tough questions about high gas prices aren’t as simple as a gas gimmick. What really got us into this mess, and how tough are the real solutions?
Biodiesel is a practical, gasoline-free way to run your car. Learn more about how to convert your car to run on biodiesel, and how to produce and store the fuel yourself.
And while you decide whether or not purchasing a conversion kit like this is right for you, try doing the best with what you already have.
Finally, remember the good things:
- You’re not alone. High gas prices are democratic. Everybody pays them.
- Traffic is down, so when you do drive, you’re less likely to be stuck in a jam.
- Most importantly, after decades of ignoring a serious issue, we’re finally facing the energy shortage head-on. This is bound to lead to solutions. Water conversion kits may not be the answer, but they’re a sign Americans are willing to consider any possibilities when it comes to fuel efficiency.
