what about the one that turns H2O to HHO and you mix it with your gas. $49 bucks for the info. says you can get all the parts you need at Home Depot and a auto parts store. :idea: that other set up needs 475 lbs sugar to make 34 gals. need another coal bin. :shock: what about making moonshine and somehow mixing with something to get it cost wise to work in a car? if it don't work out , we can get hammered. :D
