    HHO for 18 wheeler trucks (Renault magnum)

    Hi there,

    Can anybody help me in case of 18 wheeler trucks?

    What size of HHO system is it necessery to build (how many l/min), to get result.

    A friend of mine has a Renault Magnum truck with 420HP, it consumes about 5-6 MPG

    The difference offcourse is not only the size, because the whole system runs at 24 V.

    I would appreciate for your help.

    What kind of HHO unit did you use? How many l/min does it produce, and do you need allso an EFIE for this?
    A friend of mine has an 18 wheeler, maybe I try to install a system and check the result. I plan to put a 8X6, 11 plate drycell system inside that produces about 2,5-3 l/m. I'm affraid that this will be to small, but it will be ok for a small research

    I have been doing lots of research and for diesels you can run 2 lpm for every 1l of engine displacement.

    I am currently installing/tunning my first HHO system. A 3.5 lpm in my 2010 6.7L cummins.

    This is not totally true in most cases. One has to be very careful about interpreting things. The volume of HHO to the size (liter) of an engine is related to a ratio of fuel to air to HHO not considering the quality of HHO. This means if the turbo boost is turned up you can inject more HHO to maintain a given ratio or if fuel is turned down you can inject more HHO. This ratio varies from engine to engine based on all kinds of things from wear of the engine, to type of combustion chamber, to turbo pressure, to electronic injection, to physical injection, to injection timing, to multiple injections per cycle and the list goes on and on. Yes it is possible that some engines will accept 2 LPM or even more if the ratio is maintained but still varies from engine to engine. There is really no set amount but if everything is factory set then 1 lpm or less per engine liter size, seams to be a good starting point but only a starting point.

    If your 2010 commings has an O2 sensor you will be limited to the amount of HHO unless you deal with the O2, MAP, IAT and CTS sensors. I believe those engines have an EGT sensor already but if not you must install one if you are going to lean things out.

    ONE Liter per minute per 10 amps which just isn't possible Ha Ha .

    You are dumping way too much gas on the 6.7 cummins, I have a 2012 model I am only injecting 1.5LPM at best at 20 amps and yielding 17.5 MPG.
