The above site has some great pictures of a Hydrogen/oxygen generator like the one that I built.

Ouchman did you build one yet? I rebuilt mine and a new one for a friend with a Toyota T1000. His fuel mileage is worse than my truck to start with. He said he would let me know the results.

It will work something like propane. The diesel will light off and that will light off the hydrogen /oxygen mix. The hydrogen/oxygen mix burns faster than the diesel (40,000 feet per second) which will light off the rest of the diesel. It is supposed to make the diesel burn more efficiently by allowing you to burn more of the fuel during the power stroke.
You can not run a diesel engine on just hydrogen because you can not compress it enough to light it off like diesel fuel.

Just use copper for the negative not stainless. I don't know what it is about the copper, I don't think it's conduction. Good luck.

Up dates!!!
On my friends T1000 his average was 11.8mpg and this tank was 14.5mpg and he said it had more power.
On my friends Buik with a 3.8v6 he hasn't fueled yet but he allways calculates it and its above normal on the computer and has more power.
My truck just got 689.6mi took 35.9gal = 19.2mpg that included 300miles pulling a 5k trailer.
