'Vague' is a bit of an understatement! Does it run on pixie dust?

I didn't gain anything useful from the website.
Cost and running costs are two unanswered questions. Cheers James 110 2010 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop |

Heres a few useful bits that go a little deeper.
https://committees.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/8335/pdf/ https://online.fliphtml5.com/wxlfa/ztug/#p=1 The Uk parliment link does mention an installation cost of £460 and a 12000 mile refill of "electrolyte water". "The EXO:1 Unit (For mainstream automotive use) currently retails, including full approved installation, at a cost of £459.00 inclusive of VAT" But yes, looks like a hydrogen additive (Hydroxy) to get a hotter/quicker/cleaner burn. Hotter means more NOx as far as I know, however. I think I'm still on the 'snake oil' side of the fence. |

It’s definitely interesting, but if it can give upwards of 20% fuel economy improvements and clean up emissions like nothing else, why isn’t it on every engine out there. The costs seem reasonable so there must be another drawback or is it brand new to the market?

It appears to be new to market.
I don't know if everybody has found the link to the brochure, which gives some more detail? https://online.fliphtml5.com/wxlfa/ztug/#p=2 Edit: ah, just seen it in Ben's post above ![]() 110 USW BUILD THREAD - EXPEDITION TRAILER - 200tdi 90 BUILD THREAD - SANKEY TRAILER - IG@landroveranorak "You came in that thing?

I think, if you increase the overall efficiency of combustion as this claims to do, then NOx is reduced as a matter of course.

Yes, it is in the fuel. I guess, nothing special but better than nothing.
