Water for fuel!!!

[Finn]

No it doesn't, the fossel fuel burned to converter water to steam does! Gotcha back! lol.

I'll re-phrase then. Hydro power.

Who the hell is this Bangbum guy? His posts make less sense than mine.

[Fishy]

THAT'S IT!!! YOU ARE SO FIRED!!!

Damn....sorry Mr Trump.

Hey hang on.... I don't work for you

But can I please have a job?

Ha Ha
Hydro power stations are powered by the sun.
As are fossil fuel powered devices,for that matter.

Actually I've got just the job for you sonny. I need a bike bitch. Someone to keep my 4 bikes well groomed, serviced, maintained and warmed up before each ride. You will need to be available 24/7 and have the use of my car to come and pick me up on a ride $100k per annum but you must have an clean riding history. No fines, bins....

I'll do it, shit, i don't even have a rubbish bin!! But my wife does think I'm fine, don't hold that against me!!

Sorry mate my monitor isn't displaying the last 11 words of your post. I'm very interested so far...

"Where's ya bin?"
"On holiday,Boss."
"No, Where's ya wheely bin?"
"I wheely bin in jail,Boss."

Diesels are the ultimate for running on other fuel sources,they'll run on anything - even their own waste products.A lot of the big diesels burn their own lubricating oil - Cummins engines on line haul duties monitor their lubricating oil,and at regular intervals send oil to the fuel tank,then replenish from an onboard oil tank.Going back over 25 years ago to the last fuel crisis rape seed (flax) oil was seen as the ideal alternative diesel fuel....and strangely it was found BP held all the countries rape seed stock - they are well prepard.But New Zealand's diodiesel is going to use lard...extracted from the countries over supply of lard arse office workers.

SWEET - so I get cheap fuel, it's good for the environment and I lose weight???

(will it hurt?)

[kickingzebra]

Ooh, ooh, mee!! Stick the lipo needle out of my arse, and into the fuel tank.
Methane injection on occasion, with my bio diesel... Apparently works wonders for power and economy...

My old surf was dual fuel diesel... Burnt more oil than diesel half the time... Bloody thing had some grunt though... at least, compared to a nifty fifty.

Funny thing was, as it started burning heaps of oil, it actually felt like it gained power!

There's a van in France running on compressed air. It is basically a 2cyl diesel engine and works by injecting compressed air into the cylinders through the injectors and the temp difference between the super cold compressed air and the atmospheric incoming air causes the explosion. Sounds just like a diesel, and costs peanuts to recharge the cylinders. Downsides are the size and weight of the four cylinders and the limited range. I was fascinated that this could actually work, though. Bio-diesel is big biz in the USA, supported by he likes of Willie Nelson et al. (Don't you dare ask who he is!)
Think I'll look up whatever happened to a guy called Smokey Yunick in the States. BAck in the late 60's, early 70's he was doing amazing things with Buick V6's and compound turbochargeing getting impressive fuel economy. Talked of engines made of Silicon Carbide which could run at superheated temperatures, etc. Anyone else heard of him?

[kickingzebra]

Not heard of him... Someone I knew, knew someone... This guy had a nissan bluebird with a fuel preheater in it, reckoned he got 80 MPG out of it. Never saw the vehicle, but the principle sounds about right, pre vapourise the fuel/ heat it so it combusts more immediately, and mists better in the injector...

May be a crock of shizzle nizzle though

[OMG]

Only one problem with the water for fuel thing - in it's simplest form that argument go like this.

You can't create or destroy energy
You use energy to slpit the water (a)
You get energy back from burning the gases from the split water (b - which in a perfect system = a).
You use energy to move the car
You lose energy as heat from the car

So even if you got 100% of the energy back from the split water, you have to use it all again to split the next lot. None left to push or heat...

DOH!

So the question THEN becomes - where does the extra energy come from?

Lots of answers to that one - this is just a starter for 10...

E=MC^2, so there is a fark load of energy in each molecule, i.e. a = fark loads of energy. You just need a low temperature fusion reactor rather than burning the farken stuff (or a more efficient way of splitting the molecule).

[kickingzebra]

Of course the easy way is to use "free" power from nuclear reactor to generate electricity, for hydrolysis, hydrogen should become relatively cheap, and is of course in bountiful supply, then we are away laughing.

Nuclear technology is the key. If only we spent as much effort trying to harness it in a safer less wasteful manner, as we do bitching about the yanks.

Would solve a multitude of our problems.

That'd be heavy water you have in mind (H2O2) and I ain't drinkin' it!

It's hard to buy too, and Metrowater are out of it - go figure
