Can You Really Run Your Car on Water?

[Janice198896]

Since I posted instructions for making biodiesel, I've received a lot of emails from readers reminding me that many cars (including mine) run on gas, not diesel, and asking

about options for gas-powered vehicles. In particular, I've gotten a lot of questions about whether it is true that you can run your car on water. My answer: yes... and no

Ive never heard of a car been powered by water. Iv heard of cars been powered by, alcohol, chocolate and even sawdust, but never water.
A car powered with a hydrogen fuel cell would produce a small amount of water out of the exhaust as a by-product as opposed to an internal combustion engine producing hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide etc etc.
A hydrogen powered car WOULD'NT be running on water though, its running on hydrogen which is an element of water.

ha ha yea but only Cadburys chocolate and not Nestle!!!
Google ''chocolate powered F1 car'' and you will see!!
The steering wheel is even made out of potatos and veg and its a real life full size car.

LOOL! So, if the driver gets hungry, he stops the car and takes a bite from the steering wheel or the tires .... that's hilarious.
