On/Off at idle ?

[mikestrikes]

I would think that when at idle say at a long RED Light you would get a build up of HHO in the intake tube..... would it be a good idea to have a micro switch mounted on the throttle to cut the relay on/off so to only produce HHO when moving ?

I have a 1998 Honda CRV I will be converting after I get a good generator built, for now I am reading and learning as much as I can. This forum has the most info in one place I've seen so far........Thanks.

Also on my CRV I will need something to fool the ECU to get the most from this ? And will I need to re-time it any ? It has a distributor so that would be easy enough I would think..

It gets 23-24 mpg around town now, so I'm hope'n for 35-40 mpg. Is this feasible ?

SOOO I take it this isn't worth doing ?

I turn off my generator when at slow speeds, and when I am stopped at red lights.

So someone else does this. Sweet.... I was just thinking it wouldnt help much at low idle so why run it. I will look into a micro switch to switch on the relay going to the genarator when the throttle is applied.

Now my other question....

wouldnt your car just suck in more hho over gas at idle??

If you have a carb, put a T piece into the vacuum line and tee it off to the other vacuum inside the venturi so that one takes over from the other.
