it would be all the bureaucrats slowing them down. I wonder what the oil companies would say about such a design? I would not imagine that to be in their vested interests.

I'm guessing there not to happy and prob one of the reasons it's not being pushed forward quickly. Still I'd love to get my hands on one of them

I did some dyno testing with a Brock polariser and it made diddly squat difference. Almost got into a fight with the guy who claimed all sorts of false accusations. Ha Ha. Also made and fitted a Hydrogen generator to a VN and must admit it did make a small difference over time but it eventually melted so we gave up.

Forgot to mention I had a local identity named Duncan Mcwade who made a unit back in the 60's and it was tested by the ABC who put it to air as a big plus then withdrew their statement the following day. I visited Duncan to find out and boy he was ready to commit suicide believing the oil companies had put a price on his head.

its the sad truth isnt it.... we are being held back by those with money who wish to hold onto their power. two biggest examples are big oil and tobacco. I wonder how many brilliant inventions are rotting away in the storage units of big oil companies.

Im more of an evidence backed type of person. You'll need to prove what we could be doing and then i'll believe it. Theres a lot of snake oil salesmen out there. I find it hard to believe that the auto manufacturers wouldnt chase fuel savings since most people are buying smaller and smaller cars due to the lower cost of ownership, and fuel efficiency certainly is used as a selling point between manufacturers.
