12 Liter diesel truck in London saving $36 per day!

Posted by: hhotek No Comments

I just received the following  email from my UK Division, “That 12 liter Daf Truck i fitted started working immediately and save around £50 in fuel in the first TWO DAYS .  This was fitted with the new 24vF AFU that i will be sending over shortly, THESE WORK !!.  We are going to have the truck driver to drive around 200 miles then review it again.” -Paul Chandler HHO Tek UK Division

This is always great news that an independent company decides to try the product out to make up there on mind if it works or not.  All of us here at HHO Tek know the outcome, because it works, not sometimes, not most of the time, it works ALWAYS!  All the documentation and magazine articles in the world can’t prove it to someone the way them seeing it for themselves can.

HHO Tek-Platinum Fuel Saver.: Volkswagen Factory Measures 20% More Miles Per Gallon With American Technology

Posted by: hhotek No Comments

One of the cars produced by Volkswagon (VW) Europe is the Skoda.  It uses VW’s computerized fuel injectors, oxygen sensor and three-way catalyst in a closed loop, the same technology that is used in the United States.  With this advanced fuel system, the Skoda achieved 28 miles per gallon on the European equivalent of the EPA’s Federal Test Procedure for city driving.


Gasoline costs $6.00 per gallon in Europe, Skoda decided to test several technologies that claimed to improve gas mileage.
The only improvement came from the Platinum Fuel Saver,from HHO Tek of Rutherfordton, NC, which improved gas mileage by 20%, from 28 to 33 miles per gallon.


Using engine vacuum, the FuelSaver adds molecules of platinum catalyst to the air and fuel entering the engine.
In addition to increasing gas mileage, the platinum catalyst raises the octane of the fuel and cleans the carbon out of the engine which will increase the life of the engine and increase the life of engine oil.

Save Gas! – Cheat The Gas Nazis

Fuel Economizers: Tested!
From the July, 2007 issue of Jp
By Pete Trasborg
Photography by Pete Trasborg

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Jeep Shell Gas

Let’s start by telling you something you already know: gas prices are at an all-time high. It’s also no secret that Jeeps aren’t the most fuel efficient vehicles we could drive, yet we do in spite of escalating fuel costs. We constantly see advertisements that promise to increase your fuel economy for only $39.99 or whatever. Well, all this time, we’ve figured that they were just a bunch of snake oil, but after being inundated with new ads and paying almost $1,000 a month in gas, we decided to get ahold of the various different gas-saving items and test them in our project Jeep, Red.

For comparison sake to your Jeep, Red is our 4.0L ‘01 TJ with an NV3550, AEM Brute Force air intake, 4 inches of lift, 35-inch tires, 4.56 gears, a rear Detroit Truetrac, front ARB Air Locker, A/C, a Warn 9500i winch, soft top, and rear tire carrier/bumper. We started testing with 115,887 miles on the odometer, and as of press time, have 124,056 miles on it.

For purposes of this story, we rate a “significant” change as anything that gave us a 1 mpg or better average increase. Anything less, we deemed “not statistically significant.” After each item was tested, it was then removed and a tank of gas was run through the Jeep before the next test occurred. We present the tests here in the order we performed them.

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Acetone

Claim: Reduces surface tension of fuel droplets, enabling it to burn more completely. As an added benefit, it is supposed to clean carbon buildup from the engine.
In use: Add about 1 ounce of acetone per 10 gallons of gas.
Observed gains: On the first couple of tanks, we saw some decent gains. After two or three tanks of gas, though, we were back to roughly the same mileage we saw before for no statistically significant gain.

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Tire Swap

We had some really aggressive mud tires on the Jeep and decided to swap them out for a less aggressive all-terrain tire in the same diameter. We didn’t expect to see as big of a gain as we did, but we saw about a 1.5-mpg increase.

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Tornado

Claim: “Its airflow dynamics create a swirling, fast-burn effect in the combustion chamber thus creating finer particles (atomized fuel), allowing better flame propagation and more complete combustion.”
In use: Put the unit in our air-intake tube, put the intake tube back on the Jeep, and go.
Observed gains: Not only did we see no significant mileage gains, but we felt as if there was a decrease in power; hills along the normal commute to work that we used to be able to pull in Fifth gear, we ended up downshifting into Fourth to maintain speed.
Price: $64.95

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Magnetizer

Claim: “The strong magnetic charge the EPM [Engine Performance Maximizer] puts into the fuel, air, and coolant gives your fuel a complete and clean burn so that you can take advantage of increased horsepower with reduced operating expenses. Ten-25 percent on average fuel savings, depending on the age of the engine,and an 83 percent average reduction ofhydrocarbons.”In use: Apply magnets to the fuel line, coolant hose, and air tube.
Observed gains: Even with magnets on the fuel, coolant, and air intake tubes, we noticed no significant gains with Red.
Price: Not available at press time

Claim: “While we make no scientific claims about their use, several of us have tried this on various vehicles with varying degrees of ’success.’”
In use: Attach to fuel line going into the fuel rail and forget about it.
Observed gains: K&J was great on the phone and obviously knows its magnets. We got some additional rubber-coated neodymium magnets with our order, as well. While its magnets are really strong, reasonably priced, and have got an awesome selection, the Fuel Mag returned no gains on Red.
Price: $15

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Fitch Fuel Catalyst

Claim: “The Fitch Fuel Catalyst transforms gasoline and diesel into a superior quality of fuel, allowing a combustion engine to extract the maximum amount of energy with minimal emissions.” The company makes no solid numerical claims, stating simply that the catalyst will “improve fuel economy.”
In use: The Fitch inline kit included hoses to tie into Red’s fuel rails, the Fitch inline canister with catalyst, mounting brackets, and even the tool to remove the fuel line from the fuel rail.
Observed gains: We noticed an approximate 2-mpg increase over stock with the Fitch system.
Price: $327.95

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Platinum Fuel Saver

Claim: “The system operates by injecting platinum, in vapor form, into the gas/air mixture to burn (the fuel) more completely in the engine.” While they do claim an average 22 percent increase, the company also notes that your mileage might vary, But they have a 90 day money back guarantee
In use: After mounting the solution tank and using the included T-fitting to the brake booster vacuum line, we added a small vial of platinum solution, which needs to be added every 6,000 miles.
Observed gains: We saw approximately a 2-mpg increase.
Price: $239.99 for approximately 30,000 miles of solution.

Save Gas Cheat The Gas Nazis Time Warp Conclusion

What you might not realize is that from the time this is written to the time you read it can be anywhere from two to three months. We’re going to combine some of the things we tested to see just how much economy we can get out of Red. Check out the up-to-the-minute chart on www.jpmagazine.com if you want to see the actual numbers we used for our calculations, as well as the final results of the product stacking.

We stacked the Fitch Fuel Catalyst with the Platinum Fuel Saver, both sets of magnets, and the all-terrain tires, and even though we didn’t notice a statistically significant gain from the magnets, we didn’t notice a decrease, either, so we also left them on; however, we removed the Tornado. Despite not noticing a significant mileage increase or decrease, the downshifting was enough for us to exclude it from the stacking. We are hoping for 20 mpg but aren’t holding our breath.

JP Magazine approves the Platinum Fuel Saver

Posted by: hhotek No Comments

February 18, 2010 –

In the face of constant skepticism, we here at HHO Tek strive constantly to determine what is too good to be true and what is not. That old axiom of, “if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is”, not a bad axiom to measure great sounding claims against. However in today’s world of advancing knowledge and technology we routinely use many tools gadgets and such that would have fallen by the wayside, had this axiom been the yardstick to live by. We here at HHO Tek have one of those products which is frequently cast into the too good to be true box. If we claimed a fifty, seventy five or one hundred percent increase in miles per gallon that is where it would surely belong. However we have the proven catalytic chemistry of platinum, we have federal court vetted confirmation, we have 30 years of a satisfied customer base, which regularly reorders and confirms on a daily basis, our money back guaranteed claim, that you will get at least a twenty two percent increase in your fuel mileage when using our product as directed. If not send it back, we will refund your money on the day we receive the return. This year past we refunded money on 5 returns out of over a hundred thousand sold.
It is a true blessing and vindication of our purpose for selling the Platinum Gas Saver when we get a nationally recognized Magazine which anonymously ordered our product, and some fuel saving products from others claiming gas savings to test the advertised claims under real world conditions. When tested, we came out on top of the lineup, even though the test was not long enough to condition the engine of the test vehicle with our platinum. Had it run a full conditioning cycle we would have easily doubled the ten percentage increase recorded by JP Magazine.
We have a great many testimonials from our customers reporting even greater savings than what we guarantee. We do not publish them because they are a dime a dozen when appearing on a website. We have had people call in on our radio show giving their experience and savings. In any case, they are highly subjective and we leave proof to the tasting of the pudding, so to speak.
When a reputable well read, well established internationally circulated magazine such as JP gives your product an unsolicited favorable review it is a great feeling and boost in customer base for us Visit our site and you can find a link to the full JP article.
With the debut of the JP Magazine article our U.S. sales have taken a noticeable jump.
We thank you JP Magazine for having enough consumer concern to come to the fore with some real world testing.

10% Ethanol…The inside scoop!

Posted by: hhotek 1 Comment

“In theory, all fuel-driven vehicles have a fuel economy that is directly proportional to the fuel’s energy content. In reality, there are many other variables that come in to play that affect the performance of a particular fuel in a particular engine. Ethanol contains approx. 34% less energy per unit volume than gasoline, and therefore in theory, burning pure ethanol in a vehicle will result in a 34% reduction in miles per US gallon, given the same fuel economy, compared to burning pure gasoline. Since ethanol has a higher octane rating, the engine can be made more efficient by raising its compression ratio. In fact using a variable turbocharger, the compression ratio can be optimized for the fuel being used, making fuel economy almost constant for any blend. .For E10 (10% ethanol and 90% gasoline), the effect is small (~3%) when compared to conventional gasoline,and even smaller (1-2%) when compared to oxygenated and reformulated blends. However, for E85 (85% ethanol), . Actual performance may vary depending on the vehicle. Based on EPA tests for all 2006 E85 models, the average fuel economy for E85 vehicles resulted 25.56% lower than unleaded gasoline. The EPA-rated mileage of current USA flex-fuel vehicles should be considered when making price comparisons, but it must be noted that E85 is a high performance fuel, with an octane rating of about 104, and should be compared to premium. In one estimate] the US retail price for E85 ethanol is 2.62 US dollar per gallon or 3.71 dollar corrected for energy equivalency compared to a gallon of gasoline priced at 3.03 dollar. Brazilian cane ethanol (100%) is priced at 3.88 dollar against 4.91 dollar for E25 (as July 2007).” source: http://en.wikipedia.org

How does this effect you?

So you have heard that ethanol is a better value for you? Its better for a number of reasons right? Well this is not true, if you drive the average car. There are some exceptions of course, and they are: High compression engines: Ferrari, porsche, lamborghini. Turbo cars: subarus,volvos,saab. But if you drive the everyday car ethanol effects you very much. It reduces your fuel mileage and causes carbon buildup in your engine along with a few more negative effects such as noticeable power loss. So if you have a choice choose to run non ethanol fuel because it helps noone, except the manufacturer. Its not even “Greener” it still has emissions, just as gas does and the fact that its less efficient makes it actually worse.

If you have no choice but to run ethanol enriched fuel you can counteract some of the negative effects it has with the HHO Tek Platinum Gas Saver

HHO Tek Product back in the news again.

Posted by: hhotek No Comments



Our platinum injection system which is manufactured by national fuelsaver corp was in the news again yesterday. Here is the article
(HHO Tek is the US Distributor for the Platinum Gas Saver)

“Gas Saver” Invention That Actually Saves Gas . . . Who Knew?8-31-09 1:55 PM EDT

“23 mpg in the city and 45 on the highway.” Isn’t this what we all look at when choosing our car or truck? Smaller gas-burning engines get better mileage, so they say. Touted “mpg’s” seem to rise every year, especially with the addition of computers and advanced technology. Or do they? In reality, vehicles have shown less than a 5% increase in miles per gallon in the past 60 years, despite sophisticated technology.

In the face of tightening economies, excessive pollution and mileage performance have become concerns across the globe. Mexico City motorists have strictly-enforced “no drive” days in an attempt to control their pollution. Santiago, Chile drivers face the same concern, as do many U.S. cities that incur health warnings whenever smog levels soar. Eighty-six percent of all households own at least one vehicle and first-time car buyers increase an average of 10 percent per year. Nearly 378 million gallons of gasoline are consumed every day in the U.S.—that’s an average of 454 gallons per year for every man, woman and child!

Joel Robinson, Director of National Fuelsaver Corp. in Boston, Massachusetts, states, “It’s no wonder there’s been a lack of progress in the area of increased engine efficiency. The principles of automotive engineering have been grossly misunderstood.” National Fuelsaver Corp. devised the Platinum Gas Saver in 1977, which increases the mileage of gasoline-powered engines by 22 percent, meeting federal and state emission standards. Their premise was as significant as their invention.

In the mid 70’s, California, together with the federal government, decided to get serious about the amount of pollution in the atmosphere and mandated catalytic converters, which are basically mufflers whose internal surfaces have been coated with platinum. Not all the gas that enters an engine is consumed; that which escapes is released into the air as a pollutant. Platinum is a catalyst that causes unburned fuel to burn upon contact, eliminating pollution. It does not, however, create more miles per gallon with the increased burning of fuel, because the burning of this fuel occurs outside of the engine. The energy to power a vehicle is created only by the burning of fuel within the engine after the intake valve has closed and before the exhaust valve opens. Any additional burning of fuel outside the engine (i.e. within the catalytic converter) has no effect on mpg.

Textbooks state that 95 percent of the gas introduced into the engine is burned, driving the vehicle. However, according to EPA Federal Test Procedure data gathered in five separate tests, only 80 percent of gasoline is burned in perfectly-tuned gas engines. Additional research conducted by Champion Spark Plugs shows that the average engine is 12 percent worse than perfectly-tuned gas engines, bringing the burn percentage down even further to 68 percent. These two premises are the basis of National Fuelsaver’s Platinum Gas Saver, created more than 30 years ago. “It really comes down to chemistry,” continues Robinson. “By bringing the chemistry of platinum and unburned fuel into the engine itself, we were able to get added use from fuel that had previously been wasted and released into the environment as a pollutant.”

The Gas Saver is a modest device about the size of a video tape and holds a pre-measured platinum formula. The engine vacuum draws microscopic quantities of vaporized platinum into the intake manifold where it joins the fuel/air mixture entering the engine. With platinum in the flame zone, the fuel burn percentage inside the engine increases from 68 to 90 percent, a significant increase of 22 percent. That allows a vehicle to travel 22 percent faster, or 22 percent more miles per gallon, with the original amount of fuel.

Municipal officials in Los Angeles, Albuquerque and Denver, among others, have installed the gas-saving device on diesel-powered city vehicles. A five-year review of the Gas Saver Catalyst Delivery System was completed in 1985 by the Federal Consumer Protection Department, that stated that independent tests in 1980 and 1982 supported an even higher increase in mpg than the 22 percent claimed by the manufacturer, National Fuelsaver Corp. Results included: lowered emissions; reduced carbon build-up within the engine; increased engine life span; 3-5 point octane boost; significant pollution reduction; more power and acceleration and is safe and compatible with all gasoline burning engines. Their chemistry, science and premises proved valid.

So, why haven’t we heard of this device before? I can’t say, except maybe it’s simply the right time. Although more than half a million units have been sold, it is relatively unknown and un-utilized. But it is needed, nonetheless, especially in today’s unstable economy where we need a break to help us keep costs down, productivity up, pollution and waste down, and morale up. “The purchase and maintenance of an automobile is perhaps the second largest investment we make, next to a home,” says Robinson. “Anything that can increase efficiency and decrease cost is a real blessing in today’s world.”

Can you run your car on water? Of course NOT!!!

Posted by: hhotek 3 Comments



Thanks to a few Scam artist out there like Water4Gas a lot of people that have heard of HHO, has also heard the phrase “run your car on water” That is 100% wrong. All that phrase is, is something to suck you in to buy there worthless book.
Another thing is there are a lot of guys out there are still operating on the principle that the engine burns the HHO gas as a fuel that is entirely wrong. A system like ours uses the hydrogen simply a catalyst, which means IT ENHANCES THE BURN RATE OF THE FUEL. In short the typical engine is less than 50% efficient that means it wastes over 50% of the fuel that enters the engine. OK what HHO or any catalyst does is improve that burn rate meaning you burn a higher percentage of the fuel. Therefore to maintain a car running at 55mph on the interstate that is 50% efficient, you are holding the throttle at 35% to maintain speed if you increase the efficiency to 65% then you have to hold the throttle at 25% (these numbers are just examples) therefore using less fuel.

Now lets look at how it works and the problems
An on-demand hydrogen system creates hydrogen using voltage from alternator most of us understand this part. Well with anything the are problems. The biggest one is scammers. Can anyone build a device that has plates in it and create hydrogen, absolutely! The kicker is can you create enough hydrogen from the system that your production actually outweighs the drain on the electrical system NO.
There are a few key points here:
1. Your engine uses hydrogen as a catalyst not as an additional fuel.
2. When running a system like these they take voltage from the alternator which is turned by the engine which uses fuel.

Ok so what we have here is a system that WILL increase mileage if you can create enough hydrogen at a low enough amperage. Otherwise adding a poorly designed hydrogen system will actually REDUCE your mileage. This is the biggest problem, guys in their kitchen have built pvc tubes with steel plates based on what they have seen online and sold them and people in good faith that bought into the idea. Then they dont work not because the technology because they bought something that is no where near efficient enough to actually see mileage gains
There are a few more glitches with this, you cant just install a system on a car and poof, improved mileage you have to modify the systems on the car that control fuel. This also is not very easy and technically illegal, because you are modifying the cars emission systems. So about 6 months ago we shifted gears somewhat and started to sell the platinum injection system for gasoline engines. The hydrogen is for diesels only because on diesels you simply install it no mods needed (except 2009 cummins and duramax engines). And the platinum system is cheaper and installs in 15 mins and requires no computer modifications to work properly.
BUT my geniuses from bulgaria have finally finished the software that allows us to tie into stock ECUs to make the mods we need via laptop without breaking any laws. Voila! done right? ..not really its still very expensive the complete system with the software module (which stays in the car) is pushing 1800$ this is too expensive for the average guy. NYC cabs love it but they drive 2000 miles a week so they can pay for it very quickly. Until I figure out how to make it cheaper it wont be available to the public.

If anyone would like to see how this works our research and development center is open to the public (upon signing a NDA and some other paperwork) You guys are more than welcome to come and see how this all works.

2000 Skyline Build Update…More Details and 2 more pics

Posted by: hhotek No Comments


Once we opened the doors here at HHO Tek, we knew we needed some demo cars to show off our skills. So we built a BMW M3 and an Acura Integra, but we really needed something that would set ourselves apart from everyone else. So we decided to build a fuel efficient, high horsepower monster. This was not going to be very difficult given our background with green technologies. So after some careful thought of what car we would start with, we imported one of the greatest sports cars of all time, a 2000 Nissan Skyline R34. It was a low-mileage Silver R34 that had fallen off a roll back and sustained some damages. After getting the body damage repaired, we also did a complete color change on the car. The silver car was now a blue and black two-tone. The car initially came with a RB25 turbo inline 6 but we decided to upgrade the stock turbo to a custom Peavy Racing, Garret TD-05 with custom built manifold, and all hard piping along with a huge Spearco front mount intercooler.
We have also installed a standalone engine management system as that allowed us to tune the car very precisely for maximum power and fuel efficiency. Moreover by installing this system, the On-Demand Hydrogen system would improve the fuel mileage and be able to be completely controlled by the engine management system.
The Skyline got a production model 1V8D On-demand Hydrogen System from HHO Tek. The hydrogen system and a couple 10 inch subwoofers, powered by an classis Lanzar Optidrive 50c, are all contained in a custom enclosure, built by Trevor Hunter, in the trunk of the car. We didn’t spare one ounce of creativity spared with this project; the trunk is a showpiece with everything from solid copper tubes, used for subwoofer wires, to the phosphorescent liquid tubes placed throughout the trunk.
The interior of the car is quite basic, bride racing seats with 4 point harnesses and a roll cage for added safety while blasting around the corners. The Skyline is also getting treated to a set of HRE’s wrapped in Nitto rubber. As far as suspension goes, we went for simplicity by using a set of TEIN coilovers. Now we just had to figure out how to stop this beast of a car. We thought a set Brembo 4 piston calipers up front and 2 piston for the rears would do the trick.
The Skyline is almost ready, except for the back window, which needs to be replaced. In spite of putting our best efforts forward in trying to find the part, we have not been successful due to the very rare nature of the car.
The entire goal of this project was to build a car that was fuel-efficient and still a hardcore contender on the track, and at 570 horsepower and over 30 miles per gallon, I think we accomplished our goal. We have a car that has the fuel efficiency of a Honda Civic and the performance stats of a Ferrari

The Skyline still awaits its official debut and is hiding out in the HHO Tek research and development center in Bostic NC.

These will be the last photos of her until the Official debut which is TBA due to the back window problem.
