Picture 23
Here you may notice the plates are within a millimeter apart separated by the thickness of a some small nylon tie straps. Making them this close eliminates or greatly reduces the need to use lots of baking soda as an electrolyte to conduct the electrical current needed to split the water into hydrogen and oxygen. Baking soda tends to be corrosive to the plates themselves and best left out or reduced. I've drilled two holes through and bolted these together with two nylon 10-24 bolts using the nylon tie straps as spacers. I then drilled the corners and tapped that to 10-32 threads and inserted the bolts for the leads to connect to the plates. The assembly is held in place inside the unit with some one inch PVC pipe I notched to hold the plates and contoured to fit inside the pipe. The PVC pipe holding the plates into place are shown by the green arrow. There are two of these, one at the front of the plates and another at the rear. Hard to see in this picture, but I've also inserted a round piece of Plexiglas I cut to fit exactly in the inside diameter of this PVC case. This will serve as a splash shield. I located it just before the opening where the fitting is where the gas exits this unit to the engine. The splash shield has a few small holes drilled in the center and bottom for water to pass slowly. I also have some small holes in the top for gas to pass. If I suddenly make a turn or hit some bumps the water will hit the splash shield and not the end of the unit where it can be siphoned out by the gas leaving this unit. This will prevent the water from being drawn out and into the engine.
