Scotty, I just went from brainerd Minnesota down to the twin cities and my fuel mileage believe it or not fuel mileage on my 4 cylinder mustang was around 31 MI per gallon. My average around town is about 24 mi to the gallon. I am old and I don't need a V8 or its insurance. The two-door does give me more leg room which has always been a problem with the standard four-door car.

Back in the early years of tractors, most were started by hand on gasoline and once the engine was warm enough switched over to distillate. Often however the fuel would pre detonate. To control this water was injected into the air fuel mixture to cool the mixture. The old timers used to say the John Deere D ran on water.

Going by your end note about the added power draw of all the extra electronic crap in modern cars, maybe cars need greater capacity batteries with something like 14 volts, instead of 12.

@grantdavis5992 16 күн бұрын

12 volts is and will remain standard. The battery capacity is in amp hours, not voltage. Increased amp hour capacity will help with parasitic draw, but probably a better alternative would be installing a small, 1 or 2 amp solar panel someplace like the roof so the battery will always get a trickle charge when there's sunlight. Even skylight will provide a small charge which could be enough. Obviously, garaged cars wouldn't benefit, but it could help all the others.

Problem with trucks is city people buy them to look cool and never use it for what it is intended to be used for. Too many suv and trucks used to commute by city people.

Scotty, I baught a used car with a chinese windshield full of thiny chips. I went to the dealership to get a branded one and they charge around 600$ + taxes. Where can I get the good stuff without having to go trough the dealership?

I usually keep vehicles for 7-10 years. Now I’m worried about more vehicles I like are changing to smaller turbo charged engines. Yes, you get the horsepower, fuel efficiency is questionable, but life expectancy is what worries me. Is this a marketing strategy to ensure you buy a new car every five years? What are these turbo charged engines going to do to the used car market? Is it really worth buying a five year old car with a turbo charged engine that has 70k miles on it? You would be lucky if you get more than 100k out of those engines.

hotter combustion temperatures mean less carbon build up and emissions so spraying water into the intake is not for carbon depletion at all

There was a man in my neighborhood in Stockton California he made a car that ran off water around 1998 and word got around and one day like 10 police cars went to him and took him and the car he came back but the car was gone he said it was illegal and they gave him a brand new honda and that was that

So basically it’s exactly the same technology as was used in aircraft in WW2. The internal combustion engine mechanical technology was pushed as far as it could go during WW2 . The only improvement since has been because of the advances in electronics and computer systems. Personally I would prefer having the ability to opt out of the electronics and computer systems.

So I saw on a different KZfaq Channel the Toyota Tundra hybrid is not made for gas mileage the hybrid motor is there to assist it to get more power and boost they did an actual review on the truck itself what's a Toyota consultant Hands-On so anyone that wants to buy a tundra for a hybrid I think it's going to get good gas mileage should not buy it😊

@NVRAMboi 17 күн бұрын

Mileage wise, seems like a complete waste of effort on Toyota's part. And a bad surprise for a new Tundra owner believing differently.

The reason manufacturers are dropping V8’s is to meet government mandated emissions standards. Not fuel economy.

A petrol engine can run on water by splitting the water into hydrogen and oxygen using the an onboard electrolysis cell. Toyota have been researching this as have others for decades. Main problem having enough electrical power to run the HHO cell fast enough to keep pace with the demand from the engine. Pakistani taxi driver were supplementing their diesels with a HHO cell a while ago..

There were some videos made in France, where they 'show' several cars driving around using water as a fuel, do not know what the videos really showed but it was interesting none the less. Maybe one day we will split a water molecule and use the parts for fuel, but I suspect that will be done on another planet.

@bobbabai 17 күн бұрын

We already have that. It's called electrolysis. You run electric current through two conductors dangling in water and you get bubbles of hydrogen and oxygen gas. The hydrogen can be used to power a combustion engine or it can be used in a fuel cell to produce electricity. All of these processes are quite inefficient, losing significant energy along the way. It's also expensive storing and transporting the hydrogen gas once it's been produced. All of this together makes these processes unattractive from a cost perspective for light duty vehicles such as passenger cars and small trucks. It's anywhere from 4x to 8x as expensive to produce storable energy and power a vehicle using hydrogen compared to charging a battery pack and using that charge to power electric motors.
