gOOD FOR YOU... IT WOULD SEEM THAT YOU CAN RUN AT LEANER MIXTURE .. AS HYDROGEN NEEDS A RATION OF 1 PER 100 PARTS. SO BEING ABLE TO ADJUST THE MIXTURE IS A MUST TO GET ANY REAL BENIFITS FROM HHO.
i THINK YOU PROVED THAT.. WHAT ABOUT MAGNETS ON THE FUEL LINE???
By all means. I think it is an interesting test. I am building an aircraft and I am interested in doing some of the same testing once ALL the bugs are worked out.
Your the man. Great data here, looks like you might have found a way to lower your flight costs. Wellington huh, I am in Miami, would like to check you out sometime later this year. JUST BE CAREFUL

Had a couple questions for you. How much hho were you producing with your initial unit? How are you coming with your new one? Very interested been working on this idea myself.
Nice job on this HHO R&D! You're the only guy I've been able to find experimenting with HHO in an a/c engine. I have a Cherokee with a 160hp O-320-D. The engine is about 10 yrs old with one major (about 90 smoh now) and new cylinders (Lycoming). Of course, I'd have to de-certify my a/c to try this and I'd need lots of technical help from my local EAA chapter (LZU). Know anyone in the Atlanta area working on this? I'd love to get your 14% economy gain.
Super, Thanks for the comments. I am currently reworking the HHO cell to double the output and adding a PWM circuit to throttle the amperage. If this works long term, I could see perhaps an STC to allow the HHO to be used on non-Experimental aircraft. I will keep you posted.
I stopped playing with this project when fuel prices went back down to a reasonable level. It might be time to dust off my notes and start tinkering again.
I think I would run that on the ground for a while. Have you considered Cyl Volume as per Volume of HHO. On a naturally aspirated Eng it varies with Alt. So my thought is as you go higher you will see better results then on the ground because your Fuel air Changes but HHO out put stays the same. But your CHT and EGT will be lower so that alone will be a plus for the life of your Eng.
Hydroginist, I have done several ground runs and haven't noticed any real difference with the HHO gas however, I am not able to get the engine up to the correct in flight temps on the ground. My plan is to only use the HHO gas when at altitude and NOT during takeoff or landing.
One thing I was thinking about with this application - will changes in barometric pressure with changing altitudes change the way the cell operates? I think it's neat that you are trying this in a non-ground application and eager to see how it works.

I had a chance to fly today, this time pumping HHO gas into the engine.Here are the results:
HHO Off
Climb to 5500ft, lean to peak EGT 1350, 23"map 2250rpm, oat72f, cht 376f, carb temp 89f, fuel flow 9.5 GPH
HHO On (Waited 5 min)
23"map 2250rpm, oat72f, cht 372f, EGT 1290, carb temp 75f, fuel flow 9.5 GPH
Leaned to Peak EGT 1390, fuel flow 8.1 GPH
Summary: EGT and carb temps drop with HHO, Able to lean further with HHO. Fuel flow dropped 1.4 GPH
Needs more testing....

There have been several HHO tests using a vacuum on the cell. It has not proved to help or hurt HHO production.
