In setting up for the install runs that will incompass a little more than 500 miles I changed the water and seeing the electrlyte turning a little brown at the bottom after 160 miles .I think this is rust from some of the materials used in constructtion . I'll change and use new electrolyte and check again . Probably the all tread .I do think the mileage is better but have to compile a big chunck of miles useing a tank full to be sure. the other cell had a problem with heat and the aperage would run away .this one is hanging in there with the heat setting in and the amperate running steady .

tecker,
of all the very interesting and helpful /insightful posts you have done this experiment is the worst documented and explained.
(it might be the exposure to hydrogen gas)lol !

i have always been interested in utilizing hydrogen.

are you using 14volt dc from the charging system ?
or are you modifying it some how ?

can we have a look at the lid of your devise ?
does it carry the positive cathode ?

what about a second container for the water,
gravity fed to a float valve (like from a toilet)inside the electrolytic chamber to maintain a constant concentration of electrolyte?
