COOL!!!!

Well I got the plasma spark working today. It was a bad string of diodes. The Dodge runs likes a raped ape now! I'm going to regap the plugs tomorrow if I can get another fuel pump....yea, I burnt up the 2nd (and last) fuel pump I had today. I now know I can't start the Dodge with the fuel pump turned on. So I'll mount a relay for it tomorrow.

...man did the engine smooth out this time with the plasma spark!!!

I ran the Dodge for a few hours to see if anything would burn up on it and nothing ever did, and I was using the 1000v/3a didoes. I drove it for a good 40 miles before I ran out of gas. During one test I revved up the engine to 3,000 RPM and flipped the plasma system ON. When I did I gained another 100 RPM. I was using 60 volts into the system (30 volts from positive to neutral at a 50% duty cycle @ 60Hz).

I still need to figure out the issue of the unequal voltage in the electrolysis system, but hell if it doesn't hurnt anything I'll move on to the next test if I can't figure it out quickly...

    Kevin there is a company in LA that makes field spark plugs and plasma coils. I was there a few years back. His name is Morrey and you can check and see I think they might have changed the name to extreme spark. they use resistors for sure! They might be able to help! Pete

    Kevin,
    Are you running the HHO fogged water into the carb or are you just running plasma spark at this point?


    Kevin wrote " I tried both last month but I think the water was too cold to vaporize. I am only running the plasma spark until I get this in-line water heater made. I should have it done relatively quickly when I get back."

    Brilliant your nearly there!!! How about using a 12v water pump such as that used in RV`s or boats, they can run dry and not burn out and run at 2 bar or more I believe. They also only run when called for ( by a drop in pressure, ie opening the tap) and its possible to get an acumulator for them so that the run at a steady pressure, rather than in fits and starts. Just a thought? I used one on my first plated debarcle :o))to circulate the water.
