1983 Dodge Rampage  

 Warning 

Use Due caution when installing this system

    There is a threshold that can be reached using this system. I found out that at some point enough moisture can enter the cylinder and combine with the gasoline to the point where the gasoline will be unable to ignite. SO... it is suggested that only a thin and narrow width strip of sponge should be used. Also no more than 20% of the container used. The sponge should stick out above the level of the water and no closer that 1 inch from output opening.

   I speak from experience on this. While the engine stalls, it should restart with no problem. Simply reduce the size of the sponge. This occurred with me at the point where the maximum vacuum was reached. High rpm then as you let off the accelerator the maximum vacuum is reached at the point of starting to decelerate.

So long as the container used is sealed from leaking outside air, only minuet amount of vapor will enter the engine. In the nature of a few molecules of water vapor. The issue deals with the point at which the gasoline will ignite due to the water molecules being added to the gas mixture.

GOOD NEWS - MAYBE  

I may be in error as far as having reached a threshold of amount of water vapor one can add to the engine. With the bottle completely out of the truck I have been experiencing the same drop out of the engine at higher speeds. I am going to change out the fuel pump. It is the ould mechanical type. As it maybe the original it may be hanging or reduced output at high speeds. If replacing it works then I will be pushing for a threshold all over again.

My Theory

When the water molecules and gasoline combine it is the high intensity spark and ignition of the gasoline that causes the water molecules to separate into the two gases it is made of. At this point the hydrogen begins to burn at a rate 1,000 times faster than the gasoline. The gasoline's rate of burn is boosted and more horse power is achieved by the more complete burn of the gasoline. Not necessarily all of it, but most of it. The amount of hydrogen released by this method acts only as an accelerant for the gasoline. There is not enough hydrogen there to burn as anything more.

Installed evaporative booster.

 Video 1st installed with air stone. Bottle of water with aerator stone. Outputs to tee in hose that runs from the PCV valve and the carburetor. Includes a plastic ball valve to control volume of air sucked into the water to accelerate evaporation. Found that a bare minimum number of bubbles was enough. Tried drive it to see what's up. It now sound more like a sports car and quick.

NEW Sept 14  I will be driving the truck to work this week Tank has been topped off. 

   Video  Now Installed with sponge and no stone. Totally sealed. Not outside air enters. Vacuum draws a few bubbles at idle and haze of vapor when revved up. Engine idle a little faster and runs so much smoother. Video shows vapor in the form of a fine mist. What may not be so easy to seer are the small bubbles that rise to the top of the water at all times even at idle.

The rampage is 4 cylinder with a 2 barrel carburetor. 

Original mpg 20 before replacing PCV valve and air filter. Also checked plug conditions and changed oil filter. Topped off oil with Marvel Mystery oil.

Reason for inserting a sponge and reducing quantity of water. Water vapor has some difficulty in breaking free of the surface tension. Putting a sponge in it allowed water to wick up into the sponge where the water vapor can more easily leave the surface of the sponge. The sponge being of a dissimilar material. I expect it will take literally hundreds of mile before the need to add more water.

Reference for and credit for the idea of an air stone system: http://www.free-energy-info.co.uk/D6.pdf page 43.

Adding the sponge was my idea.

Sept 17:  Fill tank traveled 230 mile on this tank. Took 9 gallons to fill to top of fill spout. 25.5 mpg. Starting mpg was 20 before adding bottle. Not able to see that  water level dropped. I will be putting a numbered scale down the sides of the bottle soon so I can have a viewable reference to  use to be able to measure water consumption. I have sliced up another sponge and now have complete circle of sponge around inside edge of bottle all the way up the sides. Leaving only the middle open to evaporate from.

****** Interesting NOTE****** My tire size in the truck is R75. The size should be R60. I used my GPS unit and found out I was going 3.5 to 4 mph faster than reported on my speedometer. That is a difference of 11 to 15%. So instead of traveling 230 miles It was more like 255 to 265. Which equates to 28 to 29 mpg.  Original mpg of 20 would be closer to 22 to 23 mpg. So by my best guess I have gotten and increase of somewhere between 6 to 7 mpg. Rough figuring is and increase of 27.5 to 31 % increase in mpg. 

Sept 21  Adjusted timing of distributor from 12 degree down to 6-7 degrees before top dead center. Noticeable of change in performance. As I am now having the hydrogen speeding up the burn of the gasoline I felt the need to compensate for the change to improve the efficiency of the hydrogen. 

    I added a second evaporative booster with sponge and witnessed additional vapor leaving the 2nd bottle as well as the 1st one.

   I am looking to see if... at some point all of the gasoline has been consumed and the hydrogen itself will be adding to the increase of mpg.

CAN YOU USE THE EVAPORATIVE BOOSTER ON YOUR CAR OR TRUCK????

If your vehicle gets better mpg on a rainy day this booster should work fine. 

    Here is a photo of what it take to make an evaporative booster   ( Parts layout.) List: Bottle, 3 hose clamps, one tee. one barbed fitting and one piece of sponge. I shaved off a thin layer of the original sponge. About 1/4 inch thick.

You need to drill and tap the lid of the bottle. Screw in the barbed fitting in the bottle lid. Attach the hose and secure with hose clamp. At the hose coming from the intake manifold you slice it and put the tee in and secure with clamps. Connect the hose from the bottle and secure it with a clamp. Insert the sponge in the bottle and as 4 - 6 oz of water. The more sponge that is exposed to the air the better. You only need no more than 1/5 of a bottle of water.

BE SURE TO tighten the lid. battle must be sealed with no leaks.

Where exactly you find a hose that goes to you intake manifold will be up to you. But there must be a negative pressure - vacuum to sufficiently draw vapor.

Oct 1

   2nd tank since installation. Sustained gain at 29 mpg. I am now weighing the bottles. I used only 2.7 ounces. Out of the 265 miles I got out of this thank the vapor accounts for 63 miles.

   I put the ignition timing back to approximately 12 degrees before top dead center. As I do not separate the H and O external of the engine I have no fear of a back fire.

   I am working on a way to heat up the water. From the heat of the engine.  A no load situation.
