Is there any free instructions anywhere online that can help me out?

By passing an electric current through water you will seperate the hydrogen from the oxogen and it is possible to collect the hydrogen. With adult supervision, take a battery and submerge wires from the positive and negative terminals under mildly salty water. Do not let the wires touch one another. You will notice bubbles coming from the ends of the wires. One wire will be bubbling twice as much as the other. That stream of bubbles is the oxogen the other is pure hydrogen. By now you probably have realized that you are not making much hydrogen. Unfortunately making enough to run a car will require lots of power, way more than the battery is capable of and probably more than you care to pay for on your electric bill. Anyway, after making enough hydrogen, you need to store it by compressing and cooling the gas to a liquid. That takes more energy, lots of it. Finally, you could burn it in an internal combustion engine if it was properly mixed by weight with the outside air. some type of fuel injection would work best but it would be different than what is on your car now.

Don't bother trying. The system has no payback.



A pressurized carbon hydrogen storage tank with a cryogenic cooler on it to keep your hydrogen where it is will probably cost the same as 10 years worth of gasoline.



Electrolysis, the process you'd use to convert water into hydrogen, is VERY power intensive, so you'd pay more money for the energy to create the hydrogen than you would for just burning gasoline. My answer to the post 'What is the deal with the water/gas hybrid kits for your car?' has a rundown of the efficiencies. Ignoring equipment costs, it costs twice as much to run a gallon of gas worth of electrolysis equipment than it does to run a gallon of gas.





Most electric power in the US comes from burning oil or coal, so you'd end up with a carbon footprint larger than you started with, a vehicle you can't fuel up anywhere but your electrolysis machine, a vehicle no service tech can ever work on, a risk of massive fines for running an uncertified high pressure installation, and a total fuel bill that won't pay for itself within the lifetime of your vehicle.



And for the love of god, don't use NaCl(table salt) and water for any sort of electrolysis to get hydrogen and oxygen! It will create Chlorine gas, which is ridiculously reactive, and can kill you in ways that, if I was killed, I'd say "Wow, I just got killed!"

Making hydrogen from electrolysis to run a motor to recharge the battery would be perpetually motion. That just will not work. Every time U repeat the cycle U will loose over 50%. U can not get somthing for nothing...

There is a few e-books with step-by-step process to discover how to run your car on water.

I made a blog with the most easy to follow guides, and cheaper ones, want to save money right now?:

http://amazing-web-products.com/water-for-gas



Or im giving a free sample guide and +51 tips for free, you can request this info here:

http://amazing-web-products.com/car-saving . But hurry up this is time limited offer.



You will find all you need in our 2 sites.



Have a great day.

There are several of these kits on the market today. Just about every one of them explains how the system works on the home page. Of course, they also sell their kit that gives you step by step instructions.



I don't know about you, but If I'm going to alter my car I'd much rather have step by step instructions.



I found a site that compares some of these conversion kits.

hope it helps

I bought one of these systems from http://www.car2water.info and got a 30% increase in gas mileage. Take a look at the website.

Why don't you refer to google. I have seen many plans there. However the best way to convert your car into a water hybrid is to use special guides such as water4gas or run your car on water.

This isn't free, but it's interesting and may get you closer to where you want to be.



Good luck! :-)



EDIT:

Go to your favorite search engine and type "Water For Fuel". I used ask.com and got lots of information.



Plans are available at www.fuellessengine.com for running your car on water, but it's not simple, you actually have to build something from scratch.

go to water4gas.com

It's not free, but I believe they sell you two books for $97 that gives complete instructions on how to modify your car to run on a combination of water and gasoline. -RKO-

Yes, there is actually a free video that shows you step by step how to do this. You can find it at http://homemadehydrogenfuelcar.googlepages.com/

You can't. Anybody who says otherwise is a thief or a fool or both.
