well, technicaly, any vehicle will run on the setup, it was acutally invented in the 30's i think, may have read it wrong the other night, was a little tired, any way it was way before i was here........they just didn't have the technology to accuratly control the hydrogen seperation/production.....so it was shelved.
You can even suppliment the gas burning and some folks have seen up to 40% increase in mileage with the mix, i think the power will be down, just my assumption by the way.
The problem i will have is the controller is made for carburation, i want to use the OEM ecu to control the orthohydrogen production and let the knock sensor control the parahydrogen, it's the slower burning of the 2 and is required to keep the "ping" down, like a high octane fuel would.
once i wrap my brain around the whole thing i'll get on the ECU controller, I'll get it running on a 14 horse briggs to start with and try the 'ol mower out with the conversion, then the work car.........
but this is my personal project, not tied to Toyota at all........'cept here.....
