I emailed the People in Power about modifying my truck on browns gas
here is what they said...<GRIN> Just passing the buck.
.......

Bob,

      The addition of a browns gas producer does modify the existing
emissions system on vehicles and as such it is illegal to install without
ARB approval.  I suggest you contact ARB for additional information.

Hello.
I am currently in the proccess of modifying my car to run on a
combonation of gasoline and Browns gas, this is reported to reduce the
emitions to almost Zero in all areas... However according to the Smog
Inspection guy where I took my car last time (before the modification)
he told me if I Modified the car he cannot pass it....PERIOD...
regardless of the emitions ! this seams daft!
sense we are trying to keep emitions down arn't we ?
in the near future I plan to run my truck on 100% hydroxy gas(browns
gas) and use no gasoline at all... am I going to have truble lisensing
it or getting it to pass the smog test regardless of the emitions ?
because it will not be poluteing at all!
...
I have a web site that is devoted to improveing emitions for all and
reduceing our dependancy on forign oil... but if I can't liscnses my car
after I modify it (for what ever reason) the whole idea is a Joke !
I currently achieve 40mpg out of my toyota pickup thats up from 22mpg
running on gasoline alone....(just so you know)
...
I desided rather than complain about the laws <grin> that I'ed find out
from you exactly where we stand... can we modify the car and improve out
milage and still get the car liscnses next year ?
....
thank you for your help
Bob....

Oh wait, could it be some form of a government bureaucracy?

I've not gone any further with this so far.... because to me it sounds like just another way to get big bucks out of you for no reason.
personally I will make my system "removeable" so I can liscnses it!
...its beyond rediculas...its Amazeing to me that they have the gaul to charge as much as they do for liscnses as they do, in the first place...
but according to them its only a small pitance to the avrage income...although I have only got as high as AVRAGE INCOME One time in my life (about 25 years ago) we are so far from avrage its not funny, yet they charge EVERYONE the same as if the money grows on trees !
(they have no stipulation for people on low income...that I know of...if they do its a well guarded secret !)
....anything and everything to do with the DMV Burns me !  that is one department of the goverment that should be done away with completely
.....
oooh well... so much for doing it Properly !
if I ever do make my truck run on 100% hydroxy gas as I plan I guess I will have to do it Illegaly..... isn't that cute ?
