HHO is needed. The amount of HHO will
vary depending on the size and engine
capacity,
• Horsepower is increased between 3%
and 12% depending on the engine and
the grade of diesel used,
• HHO improves and cleans heavily
carbonized engines. In some long term
tests fuel efficiency improved between
10% and 20% by cleaning the engine. Up
to 80% of this efficiency was maintained
after removing the device, and
• HHO works best when the vehicle is
travelling at certain speed or above.
There is no benefit when the engine
is idling.
“The petrol price has shown an average
increase of 13% Y-o-Y since 2003,” concluded
Price. “Even with recent price reductions,
and with fuel contributing more than 45% of
total fleet costs, the use of alternative fuels
offer a viable solution to reduce costs as well
as carbon emissions.”
