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.

Is there a carburetor in a diesel engine?
Not in any modern diesels. Some old diesel tractors from the 1940's where gasoline start and then ran on diesel once the engine was warm. Those did have carburetors.Not in any modern diesels.

How do you start a disel Engine?
Do you have an old diesel or a new one? If you have an old diesel engine, you turn the key to the "run" position and look for the glow plug light. Glow plugs heat the cylinders, and when the engine is warm the light goes out, you turn the key and the engine starts. On a new diesel, you turn the key and it starts.
