Yes.
As a matter of fact, with some simple modifications (by a professional mechanic) a gasoline vehicle can run on pure hydrogen gas (mixed with fresh air from the engine's air intake, of course). However, this does not mean that the engine should not be tested and calibrated for efficiency and acceptable heat production and adequate cooling. It is also important to know how your vehicle's catalytic converter will handle the engine's exhaust gases and temperatures.
Modifications may possibly include:
- Fuel injectors and fuel lines for pressurized gas instead of liquid fuel (like those found in propane or natural gas vehicles).
- Higher-heat piston rings
- Oxygen sensor calibration
- Pressurized gas fuel gauge
- Installation of pressurized gaseous fuel tank
- Removal of gasoline fuel items
Please do not confuse hydrogen gas (H2) with "HHO" gas, also called "Brown's Gas" (which is actually a mixture 66.6% hydrogen and 33.3% oxygen mixed) as HHO is quite explosive when ignited. Hydrogen should never be stored mixed with oxygen in the same container (as no flammable gas should). However, given the proper mixture, and using a separate oxygen tank, the vehicle could enjoy the highest achievable efficiency, but the modifications for this would be extreme. This is only worthwhile if the oxygen is produced and gathered as a product of splitting water (H20) into hydrogen and oxygen gases.

How many ml of petrol in a car?
The capacity of cars' gas tanks vary widely. The ml of petrol in a car depends on the capacity of the gas tank and how full the tank is.
Is the burning of petrol in cars an example of complete combustion or incomplete combustion Explain?
The burning of petrol in cars is typically an example of complete combustion where petrol (hydrocarbon) reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. However, in some cases, incomplete combustion can occur, leading to the production of carbon monoxide, particulate matter, and unburnt hydrocarbons due to insufficient oxygen supply or improper engine functioning.
Why is petrol used in a car engine that gives off exhaust fumes harmful?
Petrol contains hydrocarbons that undergo combustion in the engine, producing harmful gases like carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. These gases can contribute to air pollution, respiratory problems, and environmental damage when released into the atmosphere.
What solvent is used as a fuel for cars?
Petroleum-based solvents like gasoline and diesel are commonly used as fuel for cars. These solvents are derived from crude oil and combust to generate energy to power the engine.
What company supplies hydrogen gas for cars?
There are several companies that supply hydrogen gas for cars, including Air Liquide, Linde, and Air Products. These companies produce and distribute hydrogen for use in fuel cell vehicles as part of the growing infrastructure to support the adoption of hydrogen fuel cell technology.
What can you do to help the environment about petrol?
Stop using petrol cars and start using electric cars!
Why are hydrogen cars better than petrol cars?
less pollution
Is it a good idea to use hdrogen as fuel instead of petrol for cars?
No. Hydrogen fell out of favor in transportation after the Hindenburg. It's extremely volatile.
Are hydrogen cars as good as petrol or diesel cars?
Not really because there are few filling station to fill them up at. There are no hydrogen cars being sold at this time.
What are petrol cars?
petrol cars are cars with petrol in them lol
How hybrids works?
They work on different type of energy:petrol and electricity,or petrol and hydrogen. in general the cars that have hybrid Engins stars using petrol when the other type of energy runs out or when they are moving faster than 60km/h
How hybrid engins works?
They work on different type of energy:petrol and electricity,or petrol and hydrogen. in general the cars that have hybrid Engins stars using petrol when the other type of energy runs out or when they are moving faster than 60km/h
Why is your vauxhall astra auto using a lot of petro?
Automatic cars use a lot of petrol. That is why most people in countries with expensive petrol drive manual cars.
What is the future of petrol?
the future of petrol is not in fact petrol it is hydrogen hydrogen in the future will be used as a fuel in our cars because of it's abundance and the fact that the only thing that comes out of the exhaust is water H20. honda have already made a hydrogen car (not on sale) and if you search it up you will probably find it. when we find an easier way of extracting it it will almost certainly replace the void t left by petrol
What can you use instead of petrol in your cars in the future?
diesel Ethanol Natural Gas Propane Battery power
What types of gases do cars use?
All cars would use compressed air (or nitrogen) to inflate tyres. Most cars would use petrol or diesel as a fuel (in the US petrol is known as gas). Some cars use Propane gas as a fuel. Technology is being developed to fuel cars with Hydrogen gas.
Which cars are long lasting diesel cars or petrol cars?
Cars that run diesel are long lasting than petrol cars.
