I believe Ballard is one of the world leaders in this technology here is a link to their web site and the London buses.

This scam pops up on these boards about once a year, and that's all it is. 

All you have to do is search the net and find out.

Of course you have to discount all the BS from the people who are selling the kits or instructions.

Nothing is free, especially in science.

    Yeah, I'd make a joke post "Send me $200 and I'll send you my plans for how you can make a 'converter' to make your engine run on water" but that's what all these scammers do anyway so it wouldn't sound as ridiculous as it really is.

Splitting water to get hydrogen will be key to liquid fuels. Just as soon as we start building liquid floride thorium reactors to produce the energy. Production of  dimethyl ether for substitute diesel fuel only needs a cheap energy source. The Chinese are well on the way to commercialising  LFTR technology which was developed at Oak Ridge National labs in the 50s-70s.

What I wonder is how well our old 2-stroke diesels will run on this synthetic diesel. Im guessing they will be a lot happier than some of the new high tech engines.
