That is interesting (If its true)
(Sorry, in my 50 odd years have seen lots of "Magic Fuel Boxes" promoted.)
Couple of things that didn't seem very clear (may be the Reporters fault)

Basically, the H2N-Gen contains a small reservoir of distilled water and other chemicals such as potassium hydroxide" and "The only thing the vehicle owner has to do is refill the unit with distilled water once every 80 hours of engine use. Tests show the unit itself should last for at least 10 years, Williams said.
What about the "other chemicals", do they not have to be replaced during that 10 year period?

He said his company has "over 80 million miles of real experience of onroad verification of the machine in all four seasons."
He STARTED his company only 11 years ago, that would mean driving test units over SEVEN MILLION MILES A YEAR? And he only has prototypes?
Great Story, but I'm skeptical

I'm usually also quite skeptical about miracle "gas saving devices" but this seems to have a sound principle behind it: improving the fuel burn effeciency by adding a very flammable gas to the combustion chamber. He also doesn't make any wild claims, a roughly 10% gas milage improvement and a large pollution reduction factor. The fact that its already been tested in various forms is also a good indication.
Interesting that you found that in the Montreal Gazette...I read that site regularly (its a local paper) and had seen that article already.

Interesting read, but I couldn't help think that I might invent a machine that captures passengers’ flatulents and feeds them into the engines combustion chamber.... Same principle, right?
I'm kidding, of course.
Here's another thing that could revolutionize the fuel industry: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/20..._turkeyoil.html I remember reading it 2 years ago and thought it would have taken off by now, so it's either not as efficient as they say, or being supressed somehow.
