Right guys I am no tech but just passing this on....
My mate couldn't get his 19J through MOT - 3 goes and it failed each time on emissions. Also very smokey.
he didnt want to spend much as just uses it as an old workhorse.
somebody told him to stick in a Hydrogen kit.
This involved £20 in parts and a days fiddling.
He took it to MOT and the emissions were approx 180% lower.
I was down at his shed this morning and he showed me it.
Small abs container fitted on bracket to bulkhead - wired to battery/ignition - some stainless plates connected together inside container - pipe to exhaust (not sure where) fitted with non return valve. When ignition switched on slowly starts to bubble then bubbling increases. producing hydrogen gas that supposedly creates cleaner burn.
Non return valve fitted as safety measure.
Now, I know talk about this has been about for ages regards fuel saving etc and there is split opinion. Some say myth - some say fact.
Ive met a few in the past who have been running them and swear blind fuel saving is a significant fact.
I'm not trying to say anything about fuel - all I want to share is that he couldnt get past emissions so tried this as had nothing to loose and it passed with flying colours.
Dont know the tech around it - mates lot more knowledgeable than myself.
Just thought might be of interest to somebody.
