    Greg and all, I need to tell you where I'm at with my Plasma plugs and Kiker wires. My 1988 Dodge Raider 4 cys 2.6 lit engine had a bad carb so I replaced it with a Weber conversion. There is no electronic control on this carb and you can change the primary and secondary jets from the outside. I got the mpg from 15, (running full rich), to 20 mpg. The ball plugs only give me about 1 mpg better. I put in smaller jets and got the mpg up to 23 mpg. I put in the kiker wires and still got 23 mpg???
    Right now it looks like the only way to take advantage of the ball plugs and Kiker wires is to lean the engine more. Remember I was running plasma for 25 miles and burnt up one of the four of my ball plugs and got no better gas mileage???? The other three was showing destress also. Of course I was driving my plugs way to hard but it made no difference on my mileage. Greg How are you getting what your getting? What are you doing that I might try also? Please advise. Bob
    Hi,

    My VexUs system only used a 2uF dump cap so it didn't fry the plugs. Truthfully, I think my mileage resulted from a combination of things: plasma, fuel leaning, water ingestion.

    • plug wear

      Here are some pictures of my plugs.

      All of my plugs wore very well. I was especially surprised to see the low wear on the beryllium-copper plugs. Nice job of replicating to Robin David.

      far left is the nickel plug with 750 miles, an unused beryllium-copper, 4 be-cu's with 1,400 VexUs miles of on them

      • Thanks Greg for sharing these new results with all of us.

        Very impressive to see next to no deterioration on Robin David's Firestorm replicas.

        Thanks

            • Hi Shane,

              those marine plugs seem to be good from what other have reported. Never tried them myself though.

              Also, your new video looks good

              Thanks for sharing

                Thanks.

                Plugs are on order. Looks like the 3rd order was the charm....
                First order canceled as they are "discontinued". Second order, I canceled because I found them cheaper.... well sort of. 3rd order I had to buy a case of 48 but they were the same price I was paying for 16. I don’t need that many but if they are in fact discontinued.... well I'll have them.

                Oh and they are not Champion L76V as those will not fit in my car. I found some that will:

                Racing Plug, 14mm Thread, 19mm (3/4") Reach, 5/8" (16mm) Hex Size, Gasket Seat, Non-Resistor'.....

                As a side note,
                I made some magic smoke today with my vexus setup. It was running fine until I installed the plug in the car…. I don’t know if the wire grounded out (most likely) or what but I fried the 1ohm Caddock resistor. However it still worked fine after pulling the plug. Stupid overhead cam… I guess I have to build some custom made sparkplug wires to run the vexus on my del Sol…

                • have you seen this

                  This maybe off topic but have you guys seen this.
                  Maybe something for OU researchers to check out.
                  I don’t post to many forums but have been doing a lot of research and some R&D on what I think shows promise. This appears to be something that could be applied to many of the OU devices that most OU open source engineers would be interested in

                    A case of 48 ... maybe you can sell groups of 4 on eBay and recover most of your cost.

                    Keep us updated of your progress.

                    • A while ago someone (i think Aaron) made a youtube movie where he used a weed eater engine and moved the piston with a plasma spark.

                      Does anyone have a link to it? I can not seem to reference it on youtube. I recall youtube was giving Aaron a hard time, and he moved his stuff.

                      Thanx!!

                        HI,

                        For some reason I think it was a member 'djzissis' from Overunity.com. I've been looking for it ... no luck yet.

                          • Thank you for looking gmeast...but that is not what i was looking for.

                            The vid i am talking about has the engine on the bench and he is basically truing the flywheel with one plasma spark. Just demo that the plasma can move the piston.

                                I would try to bring the timing closer to TDC or at TDC if it performs well there. The main reason timing is advanced on cars is the fuel energy is delayed from the spark. However the plasma spark maybe faster at converting the fuel energy so one should definitely be testing different timing positions and bring it all the way to TDC if it gives best economy. Leaving it stock you may not see any benefits while using the plasma spark or even losses as it will somewhat stall the piston movement if the fuel energy is before TDC.

                                You may also need to lock the timing advance mechanism.

                                Let us know of your result once you change things.

                                Update on my 1988 Dodge Raider with weber Carb with no electronic controls. I am running kiker wires and ball sparkplugs and two sizes jet smaller in carb. This is with stock ignition with a msd coil. Fuel burn went from 15 to 23 mpg. Kiker wires didn't help any over the regular wires. I then changed my timing to tdc but when I tried to drive the car I had such a reduction in power that I changed it right back. I then put in my hydroxy generator putting out 1 lpm Hydroxy and checked the mileage and got no change, still 23 mpg??? I couldn't believe it. I guess I need to put in water mist or steam next. I know in my heart that water will work as fuel with the right fog, mist, steam whatever and the right ignition and timing or lightning bolt. I just haven't found it yet. God knows and when the time is right maybe he will give us this knowledge. Keep on working guys Keep on keeping on Bob E.
