Hydrogen

there is also an instructable on how to make a car run completely on trash. I know it works I just dont know how well in the long run I have heard it can create steam and it cleans the engine but rusts the exhaust.(I have only found one place that said that). So the question still stands has anybody done this to a blazer.

it probabely is BS but I will probabely still try it out.

It actually works. My friend built an electrolysis converter stationed in the back of his 98 bronco that ran off of the alternator but had a switch in case of emergency. A line was ran from the converter to under the hood and was y-splitted into two lines. One of these lines ran to the intake behind the mass airflow sensor and the other ran into the intake manifold. The manifold had more vacuum at an idle and drew the HHO in then, and the Intake had more vacuum at higher RPMs and drew the HHO in then. The engine cut back on the fuel that was being put into the engine because it was reading that the fuel was more explosive. This increased the fuel economy. I don't have exact numbers. But the power was increased. From a standstill he can now do a burnout where as before he couldn't. We are both in highschool so it's not an insanely hard task to accomplish.
Running spark-ignition engines on hydrogen is not a new idea and most modern engines can run on it, BMW marketed a petrol/hydrogen car in Europe, only very,very few hydrogen filling stations were availible so it was not a success. As I understand it, Hydrogen is more explosive than petrol, but has much less calorific value, so in a spark ignition engine, there will be a more rapid ignition of the charge, resulting in a faster RPM and increase of engine speed during acceleration, but less torque, similar to the situation when you run on LPG but as LPG is only slightly lower in calorific value it's not such a problem. The other problem is hydrogen charge ignition is much hotter (although shorter in duration) than petrol, so prolonged running on hydrogen can cause damage to the cylinder block, head and valvesover time. There are also systems for introducing gas (hydrogen or LPG) in the air intakes of diesel engines to reduce diesel consuption , the same problems as I've mentioned above affect car engines, but apparently boat engines and generators, pumps and other industrial engines seem to work well on that type of conversion.
I have a 98 Kia Sportage and it has a hydrogen kit. It runs on a mix of gas and hydrogen. It gets about 35mpg. I can’t tell if it increased the power because I bought it with the kit already in it. I have instructions on how to do it I’ve been wanting to put one in my Blazer but I never have the time or resources to do it.
