Could we really build a car that runs on water? A couple years ago our family started looking at how we could lower our car expenses. Since gasoline is now one of the largest expenses associated with driving a car this seemed like the obvious place to start.
After looking at the bio diesel alternative we decided it would be too expensive to switch to a diesel vehicle which was necessary to make this work. We already had a car that ran on gasoline, so we decided we would first try to find a gas alternative solution. It sounded good but only with a diesel vehicle.
There had to be a better way. We had been hearing from online friends that could possibly 'build a car that runs on water.' At first we were very skeptical. Build a car that runs on water? Water doesn't burn and the internal combustion engine only works with fuel that burns- doesn't it? How could this work?
We decided to investigate the claims.
We contacted the author of one of the many books on the subject and asked for the name of someone who did build a car that runs on water in our area. It seemed like a simple way to prove whether it worked or didn't.
The response came back the next day that there was a fellow about an hour away who had done just that and we were invited to contact him. We made arrangements to meet with Tom Gorton (the local builder of a water for gas car) and have a look.
When we got there a couple days later Tom showed us his 96 Honda Civic which he showed us was now a Water- Gas Hybrid vehicle. He explained to us that the car doesn't run on just water, but rather you mix water that is vaporized with the gasoline to get better gas mileage. The idea sounded intriguing.
It made sense too. The water was broken down into its component parts and a small amount of hydrogen mixes with the gasoline to up the combustion levels. Hydrogen is very explosive, but Tom explained that the car is really quite safe. Since water is basically free it looked like a great alternative to expensive gasoline.
According to Mr. Gorton has Honda Civic gained about 42% in gas mileage. Tom is a do it yourself kind of guy and he works at a local factory so he has some mechanical abilities. He did assure us that anybody could install the simple system to build a car that runs on water though.
Now, I am not a real handy guy around vehicles- I can change the oil and find the spark plugs, that's about it. When Tom showed me the installation process I was even confident I could install the water car system. He told us that it cost him about $160 total, including the plans.
Considering he was saving about 40% on gas costs that meant we would pay for our investment in a matter of weeks if we installed the system!
That was good enough for us so we decided to do the conversion ourselves.
Do you want more information?
Build A Car That Runs On Water yourself and see your mileage climb between fill ups. We haven't had time to positively state our gas mileage improvement but it looks like somewhere between 35 and 46% right now. We are so happy to be saving money on our gas and we are sure you can build a car that runs on water too.
Our family has been living off the grid since last year, and loving every minute of it. Our latest project, to build a car that runs on water has been a great success.
