Theoretically, yes... But would there be enough heat at start-up to complete that cycle or would that conversion only be functional after there was some heat saturation of the piston and cylinder to support the steam after the flash, or how about the annoying habit of vacuum to rapidly condense water vapor into droplets? Not trying to rain on your idea at all- I like it, but this illustrates some areas needing more research.
-also the pressure of the hho starting the movement of the piston downword lets say a quater of the way, then the explosion would also force the piston downword correct?
Whatever distance downward the piston was forced by the HHO injection would be the base distance the piston was sucked back up during implosion phase after whatever farther distance it was forced down by the explosion.
i would make an adjustable connection rod, and a adjustable crank shaft to play around with the stroke. maybe i could use a clutch on the camshaft to prevent the implosion from drawing the piston the other way untill its turned into steam. i will try to design it to make it as easy as possible to modify.
