...With this water fuel technology, I have personally saved more than
50% in fuel costs savings ever since I started using this system...

I Dono? --but--back during WW11 some of Our Fighter Aircraft had a Water
Injection System  that gave Our Fighters More Power in
Emergancies--but--Pilots only could Use It for a very Short period of
Time--as that System was Hard on Engines!   a Known Fact--Internal

water injection gives more power due to the cooling of the fuel mixture.
but it is also hard on the engine because too much water or an incomplete
vaporization of the mixture can cause a hydrolock condition, which can bend
a connecting rod.

what these guys are talking about is making the engine run on  hydrogen that
is produced by a hydrogen generator built into the vehicle.
this system is a joke, because it can not produce enough energy to run
itself.

Ummm, yeah.  No wonder the US is going to hell in a handbasket if this
is an example of our educational system.

Water injection was used on civilian air craft well into the 70's as
well as on a turbocharged Oldsmobile engine.      The system wasnt hard
on engines, the problems came about when you ran out of water.

Aircraft, especially the many-motored mil types, used water injection for
takeoff boost as far back as WW II.  According to operating manuals, it
provided a condensed mass that expanded very well while keeping cylinder
head temps within reason.  Same dash-1 also warns of stress issues due to
increased cylinder pressures as well as corrosive effects.  Seems
superheated steam wants to eat anything it touches <g>.  For whatever
reason, the dash-1 called for water off as soon as practical when used for
MTO power.  This is the first I had heard of a production auto engine using
it.
