I am going to chime in here for a quick statement that the big issue with these electrolysis devices is the lack of separation of the gasses. not removing the o2 is where they all go wrong. this is eminent for any of it to work. if the o2 is separated then there can be a positive effect,
the question I have is it going to increase mpg or level out.
the reason I say this is the map/maf senses the added o2 and injects more fuel thus contradicting any possible benefit.

^ That's not the reason they don't work. DO NOT bother to respond. Read the whole thread - there are links to threads that fully explain why electrolysis systems don't work.
This is NOT up for discussion.

A suggestion, if I might?
All banned topics should be in a clear, concise, bulleted list at the top of the first page in the first post.
It's not very friendly to folks to have to read through 7 pages of a thread just to know what the ground rules are.
