Smile I'm New thanks for the opportunity to share information.

My name is Donnie, I am from Sand Springs Oklahoma and I am looking for new ways to save $$ in fuel expenses. I am currently looking into the HHO generators along with fuel vaporization and running a fish carburator on a 73 Chevy Suburban with a 4 speed low geared transmission. I do not yet know what my mileage will be as I have not road tested yet. I have recently discovered that I need to replace some valve seals first due to 2 cylendars fouling out. Once I get that taken care of I will road test. Before the installation of the Fish I was using an edlebrock 650 CFM carb and I have been averaging 14MPG.

I look forward to talking about great ways to improve mileage and new ways to use technology.

You actually have a Fish carb?

Where did you get it?

Is your Suburban a manual tranny?

Welcome.

If your tranny is low geared, you'll want to put in a taller rear end...

I got the Fish from my uncle who used to be a reseller for them.
