I have a Dodge Ram 08 with a 4.7 V8. Im using a 750 ml reservoir and two cells and two line for the engine one is going into the air intake and one in the vacuum line im getting ruffle about 22.6mpg and 23 mpg right now on highway going 70mph. Before i was getting around 16 to 17 mpg so there was in increase still trying to mod it out and tweaking the system

That reservoir is abit small, how is your cell configured? Also, what are you using to handle the O2 sensors. I've read plenty to accept the fact that Dodge o2 are tough to crack to accept HHO.

Also, I am abit surprise your 4.7 only gets 16-17mpg highway. My Town Car gets that in the city without any HHO and 24mpg highway. I don't think your truck weighs that much more than the Town Car.

I am really curious about your cell and how it is engineered to induced the HHO through a vacuum.

Hey Chief, I think his gearing is different in his truck than you TC. His used for pulling and yours for comfort. They always put a lower gear in a truck. You are right He does need a larger reservoir, 2-5 qt should do.
CH I would like to see your setup as well. There are some aftermarket mods that would help increase your mpg even more.

I'm running two 9 plated cells in front of the radiator and i had problems finding a spot for the reservoir ist right now mounted in the air filter box im trying to get it in front of the radiator so it has a nice flow of of water going to the cells also im ready to go and buy a pulse modulator and i also running it with potassium hydroxide the cells aren't very big i was thinking about getting two bigger ones i figure our the perfect mixture of water and koh. I'm getting me a bigger reservoir

I am having difficulty understanding why you are having problem with space for a reservoir in front of your rad. I had a 2002 Ram with 4.7, the first year they had the hood open and expose the entire front end of the truck. My 2009 F-150 is the same way, I am using a 1 1/2 gl. reservoir 24" bubbler and 4" X 12" X 2 1/2" cell everything is in front of the rad.

I would love to see where and how you are inducing HHO via vacuum and the size of your cell. From what you are saying they are small, if they are that small then they must be very efficient to produce enough to feed that 4.7. The reason I say that my Town Car has a two stack 13 plates 3" X 11" at 25 amps it barely produce enough to reach 1.5-2lpm. so if your cell are smaller, then those some efficient cell.

There is space but i couldnt figure out where to perfectly mount it so i went that way ya the cells are small but they are working pretty good now but i think you are right they should be bigger. I will take some pic and post them i reall would like some more advise

I am familiar with those cell, they were one of many I reverse engineered. Hate to burst your bubbles, but they are not capable of producing enough to feed that 4.7l engine of yours. Plus they will get hot because they only have 3 bipolar plates and holes are align. Unless the .5 lpm per 1 liter of engine displacement has change and going less is better. Although I've tried that with my truck and didn't see any gain.

I've attached a photo of the system in my F-150 to give you an idea you have room to mount your resevoir in front of your rad but with some fabricating on your part.

So that cell in the picture would produce enough hbo for my 4.7l alright next pay check another question those round things to the reservoir are they cleaners to take the moister out of gas well for right now the cells are giving me a little extra gas mileages
