Hey...It Won't Go!

by Lyndon Conrad Bell.

Lock your car, take your keys, don't give car thieves a chance...

That stern admonition is quite familiar to anyone who grew up watching television in the 1970's. Remarkably, even today, twenty percent of all cars stolen are unlocked, with the keys in them, at the time of the theft. Amazing how the more things change, the more they stay the same. Almost.

If you're on the other side of this transaction and jacking rides is the pill that gives you a thrill, you might want to start choosing your marks a bit more carefully. OnStar now has the ability to practically stop a vehicle at the touch of a button––from Detroit––no matter where the car is located in North America.



This new move––Stolen Vehicle Slowdown––is the latest enhancement to OnStar's stolen vehicle services.

OnStar advisors, working with local law enforcement, can send a signal to a stolen vehicle to reduce engine power, slowing the vehicle to a virtual crawl.

The process works as follows:

* Once a vehicle has been reported stolen to law enforcement, the subscriber can call OnStar and request Stolen Vehicle Location Assistance.
* OnStar will use real-time GPS technology to pinpoint the location of the stolen vehicle and provide this information to law enforcement to help them recover the vehicle.
* When a police officer has established a clear line of sight of the stolen vehicle, they can request OnStar to slow it down remotely.
* OnStar then sends a remote signal to the vehicle that interacts with the powertrain system to reduce engine power and slow the vehicle down gradually.

And, as for the one behind the wheel when all that jumps off…well, we’ve all seen enough Cops-like shows to know the rest of this little adventure plays out on foot; and typically ends up with the perpetrator face-down in a pile of dog poo –– don’t make that be you.

Research has shown that 95 percent of OnStar subscribers want the Stolen Vehicle Slowdown service on their cars and trucks. So, the question becomes which cars have it and which ones don’t?

Well, you’ll just have find that out on your own. We will tell you there is no way to tell just by looking at the vehicle.

And yes, this would probably be a good time to just find another occupation.

Don’t say nobody never told ya!

Hydrogen For Cars, Make a Hydrogen Generator For Your Car

By: Mick Legg

Did you know that there is a way to cut your gas consumption in half? I’m talking about Hydrogen for cars a method where plain water is used to produce HHO gas to use as a supplement to your regular gasoline.

If you make a Hydrogen Generator for your car you can expect to get gas mileage improvements of up to 50%, this is because HHO gas burns with up to 3 times more power than ordinary gasoline. And when you mix the two together by using a homemade Hydrogen Generator you will get a much more fuel efficient engine and so get more mpg.

Hydrogen for cars is not a new concept, in fact it has been around for a long time, but due to pressure from the big oil companies it has been suppressed and kept out of the public eye. People have been making homemade Hydrogen Generators for their cars and trucks for years with great results. Now because of the latest oil crisis the technology has had resurgence and has come on in leaps and bounds. This technology has come so far in the past few years that it is now possible for anyone to make a Hydrogen Generator cheaply and easily.

The principle behind a homemade Hydrogen Generator is a simple process called electrolysis. This process uses the electricity from your vehicles battery to break a small amount of water down into its two main molecules (Hydrogen and Oxygen). A by-product of this is HHO or Brown’s gas, a gas that is highly flammable which is then mixed with your regular fuel and burned in your engine in the usual way.

You can make a Hydrogen Generator for your car very easily and also very cheaply. All the parts you need can be bought from local auto stores and hardware shops. You can also buy kits to put together a homemade Hydrogen Generator but these tend to be expensive and can work out to be ten times the cost of building one from scratch.

The easiest way to make a Hydrogen Generator is to use one of the downloadable manuals from the internet. These manuals give you full and detailed instructions of exactly what parts you need, and a step by step guide to put them together. They contain detailed diagrams and even videos to show you how to make a homemade Hydrogen Generator for your car or truck.

A homemade Hydrogen Generator will work on any make or model of car, truck, or Suv, and once installed you can expect to get great gas mileage improvements. It can also be removed from your vehicle very easily without causing any damage, so if you sell your car or truck you can keep it to use in your next vehicle.

All in all Hydrogen for cars seems to make a lot of sense, and as it is so easy and cheap to make a Hydrogen Generator for you car I can see it catching on in a big way. If you are interested and would like to make a Hydrogen Generator for your own car check out the top downloadable guides that I have reviewed on my website.
