$6 Per Gallon Gas, and Your Options

Unless you are ready to start riding the bus, or shelling out major bucks for a hybrid (which may not even saver you much money <see the post: Why Hybrids Suck, you do the math>) you need a better solution to $6 a gallon gas.

There are lots of ways to make your transportation costs lower, but I’m not really interested in the ones that involve me driving a lot less, driving tiny vehicles, changing the way I drive (”bat out of hell” comes to mind), or cutting down on road trips. I like my lifestyle, and I’d like to not change it if I don’t have to.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m NOT for trashing the environment, but, I’m all about having my cake and eating it….

Take the Gas Guzzler in Your Driveway and get Better Mileage Than a Hybrid for Less Than $300

So here’s the deal. That gas guzzler sitting in your driveway is actually a better solution than you might think. It’s proven technology that’s been around for decades. Parts are cheap and available. And you don’t need to trade it in and spend a lot of money on something new just to save on fuel costs.

Do you have any idea just how inefficient most engines are? Up until now, there was really no big reason to figure out how to get more miles out of the average car. Gas was reasonably cheap.

Now we are in all kinds of pain with the skyrocketing of fuel costs… and it’s not going to get any better.

The Good News and the Bad News

As with everything, there’s two sides to this. I wish I could say that all you have to do is order this widget from Amazon, plug it into your 9 mpg gas guzzler, and instantly get 78 mpg, the adoration of environmentalists everywhere… and yes, you get a free Ipod with every order. Unfortunately, that just isn’t the reality right now…

But the good news is there is a small revolution of people building a very simple gadget, joining forces with other motivated gas savers, and literally changing the way our vehicles use that golden stuff we call gas.

They are not rocket scientists, most are not even real mechanics. Just regular people who are sick and tired of not being able to do a damn thing about high gas prices. They are taking old, forgotten technology and applying it in a down to earth way to get super mileage out of old cars.

In the next few days I’ll have a LOT more to say about it, but for now let me just give you the link to check out what is possibly the coolest innovation in beating the crap out of a national problem like the Gas Crisis.

Go here and check it out: Water4Gas.

Skeptics are everywhere, and I’m going to cover every angle of this project, start to finish. If you want to wait until it’s all up and then think about it, I really don’t blame you. In the mean time though, gas prices are climbing and most of us are getting a sober look at the end of cheap gas, and the reality of the trucks, SUVs, and road rockets we chose to populate our driveways with.

However, if you are even a little bit mechanically inclined (or know someone who will help you), get your butt in gear and find out for yourself how cool it is to make that V8, 5.0 liter motor go from 14 MPG to 32 MPG. Or better yet, that import with a 4 cylinder going from 24 MPG in the city to a whopping 68 MPG.

And I’m not talking about some weird Hybrid technology. It’s your existing car, just with a nice modification you can build in your kitchen.

Stick around and see how things go here, or take the bull by the horns and get on it:

  1. Go here and get the Water4Gas manual: Water4Gas Conversion Manual
  2. Go to my page on MPG Gauge with an old laptop and $9 in parts ( you need this to verify that the thing works as good as advertised, and so you can tune it better than any mechanic)
  3. Do a FAST read of the manual, don’t get caught up in details… yet
  4. Take the list of parts needed and get them all in, everything. It doesn’t cost much, and you can get everything from Home Depot or online. Nothing exotic here
  5. Don’t stall out on the details, just build it per the instructions. It’s easy and straightforward
  6. Now head back here and post any questions you have, we will be posting as fast as we can on the questions in the pile right now, but go ahead and post them.
  7. You will probably have some questions on actually connecting up the wiring to your vehicle, so here is the time to dig into the manual and get those details figure out. Ask away on this blog and we’ll get you taken care of.

Sitting around and thinking about things will not solve the fact that your gas costs have gone up over a $1 per gallon in a few months. Seriously, if you want to be a part of the solution, you have to get on it, get it done, and do it now.

What’s the risk? Really none. The manual costs $97, you will need about $60 in parts. Then you need the MPG Digital Gauge which is free if you can find an old laptop and a few components (about $9 if you have to buy the wire, resistors, and diodes…).

What if it doesn’t work? It works quite well as you will see soon enough, but your absolute downside is you return the manual for a refund, and you are out some parts from Home Depot, and a little time.

…. And I guarantee if you stick with it and don’t get the results you want, you will learn some really interesting things you probably didn’t know about engines, fuel, the Gas Crisis, and some esoteric stuff the guys at Water4Gas put in the manual just for good measure.

There’s really no excuse if you NEED to get some relief from the Gas Crisis. Get on it, like I said, we’re here to help any way we can.

    What exactly is the conversion about, hydrogen or something? How can this give higher mileage?

  2. admin Says:

    Hi Carter,
    Take a look at my post What Is Water4Gas, it should answer your questions. In short, it is a super simple method of feeding hydrogen gas into your gas engine (works on diesel too). The hydrogen is made from water (practically free) and with some adjustments, you can dramatically increase your mileage. Check it out.

    We did a lot of motor work back my racing days, and found that water injection was totally common with the hotrodders, but with normal mechanics you bring it up and they just give you this weird look like “huh?”. I guess this hydrogen thing is another thing that has been around forever, but it never went mainstream because gas prices weren’t high enough for anyone to bother. Times change. Most of the work on our cars I do these days is just maintenance, but I’m definitely going to check out this conversion for our 3 cars. My work is only 5 miles away, but the wife goes 26 miles every day. Could really put some extra cash in our pockets.

  4. Karisa Says:

    Yeah me too…I’m all over town delivering muffins and shopping for supplies all day every day. 26 miles in a day is NOTHING to me. Well now it is…its $6 or so dollars in my SUV’s gas tank. UGH. I’m trying this water4gas thing out. I’ll let you know how it goes.
