If the vehicle is quite new then the the main thing you'll have to do is remap the computer. I put one on a 2005 f350 and only gained 4mpg.The gas production is 3.5 litres per minute. I could not understand why the mileage was not vastly improved. This is because in newer engines there is a sensor called the O2 (oxygen) sensor which senses the oxygen levels going through the fuel system. When you install a hydrogen generator you are not only pumping hydrogen into the engine but oxygen as well and this increased oxygen level will mess things up for us.

The ECU (the computer that controls fuel injection and other things) will actually inject MORE fuel into the engine as a result of this increased oxygen level so instead of saving fuel you will actually start to use more fuel or about the same as before.

To combat this a small device called an EFIE was produced. EFIE stands for Electronic Fuel Injection Enhancer and it basically tricks the ECU into not noticing the increased oxygen levels in the fuel. You can easily make one yourself or buy one. See related links for more information on building your own EFIE. As far as fitting the hydrogen fuel cell into a diesel engine goes it's really quite simple. In vehicles without an ECU and O2 sensor it's insanely easy and even in vehicles with one it's the exact same process apart from what you have to do with the EFIE as said above.

Basically all you do is drill a hole in your air intake at an angle that will go with the air flow (i.e drill it in the direction that the air would be sucked in). Then fit the pipe that comes from your hydrogen generator into this hole and that's it!

Simple stuff aye!

In a petrol engine it's the same but you have to also install a pipe into a vacuum line as well as petrol engines draw fuel and air from different places when they are at low and high speeds.

Hope this helps and good luck! See related links for more information on building your own HHO fuel cell and getting your own EFIE.

Where inject hho before or after turbo on diesel engine?

HHO is BS. An HHO generator produces a perfect stochiometric mixture of H2 and O2 gas. (If you read anywhere that their HHO system produces "H1" gas, run. Very fast. H1 exists for the half a femtosecond it takes a hydrogen atom to find and bond with another hydrogen atom.) And it requires more energy to pry water apart than you'll ever get by burning it. That energy comes, of course, from the engine in your truck. Yes, I know..."the HHO system puts more air into the cylinder." Yeah, yeah, yeah...even if you were venting the hydrogen into the air that oxygen won't do anything for you because diesels run extremely lean anyway. You can double the amount of diesel being pumped into the cylinder and still not use up all the air...we know that because one of the most popular engines made today has ratings from 400 to 565 hp and all they change to increase the hp is the injector bodies. If you want more power from your diesel engine, first change the muffler. It will cost you between $1500 and $3000 to install an HHO system that won't actually do anything for you; for $300 you can put a very high-flow muffler on your truck that'll add 50 hp by reducing back pressure. If you still want more hp, you can reprogram the ECU. If you've got an old truck with a mechanical engine, after you change the muffler you can add a propane injection system. This works very well, and you can go two ways: you can inject propane to increase hp with the same amount of diesel burned, or you can keep the same hp and replace some of the diesel with propane - which lets you operate less expensively because propane's cheaper than diesel. Some guys are also running nitrous oxide, but you can usually get the same result (nitrous adds more O2 to the cylinder) by adjusting your turbo. There is one good application for HHO. Jewelers fuel their torches with it because they don't have to store flammable gases on the premises.

What does the vacuum pump do in an engine?

You must have a diesel. The vacuum pump is what gives you POWER BRAKES and on the newer engines it also makes the power steering work. Only a gas engine makes vacuum. A diesel engine does not make vacuum, so they install a vacuum pump.
