HHO Kit for Civic VX- Ebay?
I have a Civic VX with a 1.5L motor in it. I have been reading about building a HHO setup, but for now I think I'd like to buy a basic kit and see if I have good results. I found a kit on ebay, and it if will function, I'll take it, but if you guys had a better suggestion, I'll take it.
I'll need to post this elsewhere, but I am having a hard timing making decisions about the EFIE. For those who don't know about the Civic VX, it is a "Lean Burn" motor which burns at a 20:1 AF (maybe even upt o 25:1) and I am a little worried about leaning out the engine even more without some sort of EGT gauge or something.
Anyway, with my little motor, I shouldn't need anything special. If you guys think the eBay kit will work, let me know, if you have something better, reply or PM me.

Let's be absolutely honest for just a bit.
NONE of the HHO devices sold on Ebay or designed on this forum can Guarantee the claimed performance gains or safety across a broad range of applications. NONE.
A car owner must start tinkering and learning. And some of the basic kits on ebay allow someone to start down their own road to discovery.
The information provided on this forum is so hodge podge and so much of it is wrong, even from the so called "mentors" that it is vexing for a newbie to get going.
Stevo wants you to build a "dry cell". Well, 35 years ago, I built a cell much like the unit shown on the ebay add. I applied it to a single cylinder engine in our university lab. I learned from it. Is it the best? Is it the safest? None of the above. But it was a stepping stone. And it is relatively cheap. A "dry cell" can cost hundreds. And they do not work all that well and can be tricky to build due to design errors.
If the really good intentioned people on this forum want to help others learn, they will have a step by step course plan. Not the self centered shotgun blast exampled above.
Why don't you show how the simple ebay device can teach someone about electrolyte concentration, temperature, voltage and current, etc.
Then move forward.

. . . make it clear how highly you think of yourself. The reader can make this out.
Why don't you answer the original poster. Tell him how he can extend the lean limits of combustion inherent in his Honda VX engine system. Tell him how he can exceed a 24:1 fuel ratio with the minimal seeding of hydrogen provided by a single cell running at 2 to 3 amperes. He does not need to mess with the so called EFIEs because his system already runs in lean burn for most light load cruising situations. All he has to do is to slave his Cell to produce during those loading conditions.
Yes, he will need more circuitry to make it work. Yes, he will need some safety redesign. But, he can make a good attempt. And it can work.
And yes, I may be a boor, but at least my information is based on a real education and many decades of hands on design and development.
