    HHO in a Ford Ranger

    I have a Ford Ranger 2.3 Liter 4 cylinder(Fuel Injected) 5 speed, and I was wondering if anybody would know how many MPG's it would get with on demand HHO.


    Oh by the way it also has 4xx,xxx miles on it(but it still will run!)

    Every vehicle is different, that makes it very hard to make a guess. It could increase it by up to 40% or more. I recieved a 37% increase with my truck.

    Ranger2.3,
    I am running a 2003 ranger 2.3 liter, 5 speed std.. I am getting 30.8 mpg with my current hho gen. My baseline mpg was 22.4 with no hho. Details on gen construction is located elsewhere on this site. I travel about 1/2 city and 1/2 highway.

    did you have to do anything to your computer? I'm working on the computer spec's and it seems that some people need to adjust their computer and some do not. I'm trying to figure out why.

    Not yet

    Daveczrn,
    I haven't done anything to the electronics yet.

    I wanted to see how much milage I could get by increasing gas production. Testing so far was 11%, 17%, 29.7%, and 37.5%, using more surface area each time.

    I just changed from 1 quart jar to a 1/2 gallon. More electrolyte volume allows more current without overheating. I ran the quarts at 4 to 5 amps, and the 1/2 gal. at 7 to 8 amps.

    I have an O2 sensor extender, but haven't installed it yet.

    Hi ridelong, thanks for the info. Oh yea where can you get a O2 sensor extender?

    the 02 extender is not something that i think will work to your expectations. I believe it's a poor bandaid to the problem. mostly what i have seen is poor results if any from the extender.

    O2

    Ranger2.3,

    I got the O2 sensor off Ebay for around 8 bucks. From all of the stuff I read, I don't expect much from it, but I'll try it anyway.

    What mpg are you getting?
