Two ways.

1)  I have some small two-cycle engines.  You have probably seen them flying around on Vort.  I will start them on their standard fuel of 30% nitromethane and oil with an open fuel tank.  I will combine some of our treated water with 2-cycle oil and slowly wean the engine off the nitromethane by diluting the solution with the treated water/oil combination.  Will it "Run on Water"?

2)  Tom (his real name!) has a truck which gets 17.1 mpg (he said today that it was down to 17 and he needs an oil change.  Sheesh, what a way to do maintenance!).  We will build an electrolyzer which takes no more than 25 A at 12 V and pump the BG into his intake.  Since Tom commutes most days from Chattanooga, TN to Atlanta, measurements are quick.  First he will test with distilled water.  We are discussing the electrolyte.  <g>  Then he will test with my current <g> batch.  Next he will test with my 24 VDC batch.  Oh, he always buys his petro from the same pump.

Tom's truck has been fully depreciated and he is looking to buy a new one.  He has about 150k miles on it.  Suggestions are welcome.
