Well if nothing else you guys sure provide an education!
I am still sitting on the fence,partly because of finances and partly because of fear of not having the finances to make repairs if things go...

Good to know,please let us in on your results.

From what I understood the ratio of HHO generation to engine displacement was 1 liter per liter of displacement so a 6.5 would need 6.5 liters HHO....

I think your theory has a flaw,pre-ignition happens when the octane of the fuel cannot withstand the heat in the cylinder and spontaneously combusts.
The HHO is the culprit here since under...

Ok turning up the IP is an option for you.

No smoke from a 6.5 is a good thing,they do not respond well to smoke-it's unburned fuel and will melt a 6.5 down in very short order.

Unless changed to a mechanical IP your 94 will have an...

I agree completely with you,and with Bill.

The balancing act is the part that makes me shy away from the HHO project at this time on my engine.
I am not in a position to make the investment and...

For what it's worth I called BIll Heath @ Heath Diesel (the foremost authority on these engines)this mourning and had a long conversation about the GM 6.5TD.

I called to enquire about a propane...

The GM 6.5TD does have a pre-combustion chamber,so we will probably have to be carefull with making HHO during the starting glow plug cycle.

Staying tuned for the reaction of this scenario.
Pre-ignition is very bad for the Chev 6.5 turbo diesels that we wre considering the HHO for.

If nothing else this proves there is always more to learn!
A quick search at DP and it doesn't seem as though the 1st gen dmax was equipped with an O2 sensor,more research seems to be in order.

Any thoughts of how this would work on a first gen Duramax?
Any pitfalls to be aware of with those engines?

The order count may go up to 4 Mark,my neighbour is feeling the strain at the pumps and...

Still on board and following closely,still getting very few new post alerts though.
Looks like I will have to finish the instalation of my milling machine and get some needed tooling.

I actually did go through that process last week right after speaking with you and this is the first notification of a new post I have had since post 36 when I changed the settings and subscribed to...

Its a shame that the site is not notifying me of new posts like it is supposed to,I have to make an effort to keep up.

The cost vs return on this project seems in line for me and I will be on...

Hello
I am new in town and do not intend to thread steal,I have been known to be a partner in crime on occasion with Oshawapilot on some projects so I thought I would enter the fray.

There have...
