hello

heres an issue i have not seen on the forum,

there are some cars that have a device called an EGR, Exhaust gas recirculation,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas_recirculation

and i was thinking, if the byproduct of HHO is water , then water can try to get in to the intake, could this do any damage at all?

just wondering if anyone have experience with this, one option could be to delete the egr, but i know some state would not pass the smog test if this is done.

just bringing it to thought

The egr valve can be left out of the hho equation because there's no more water vapor in hydroxy gas than air in heavy fog conditions.

One of the by-products of burning gasoline is water. Ever noticed the water dripping out of the tailpipe of some cars when you first crank them?
