Hydrogen dual fuel system

Hi folks not a problem but more for conversation and peoples thoughts.

I was reading a blog from someone with a Mercedes diesel based 1992 Hymer and he has had a hydrogen duel fuel system fitted. Something similar to this I guess http://www.mpg-systems.co.uk/index.html. He seems to swear by it but I am not convinced

Anyone with any personal experience as I wonder if its more of the smoking mirrors/snake all wonder cure. Reason I ask I am thinking of changing my old girl for a Hymer S700 - non turbo.

What about a gas conversion to reduce running costs

Hi Broms - deffo don't be putting the vegi oil into her as it takes some of Hessy's umph out of her!!
Oooooh - the posh-ness of the S700 - look at you :whistle:

Hi -- I would not rely on a change of fuel to do much to help with speed up hills.
It's an inbuilt gearing thing,and other than major surgery ,there is no cure.
Careful maintenance of the fuel filters,in particular the little in line filter,located at the injector pump,is essential to get the best acceleration .
---but really you would be better to try and get a good long hilly test drive,before you decide if this is the camper for you.
All I can add is ,that I used to despair of the loss of speed up hill,but I seem to have got used to it,and
Having driven our van up a few steep ones, I now know that it will get up eventually.
The "mountain" road out of Santander still cracks me up,and I still feel guilty if I cannot get out of the way of other traffic, but It has been very reliable.
Hope that is some help.
