Long term effect of HHO injection?

I have seen a lot of videos of guys boosting their mileage by
installing a hydrolyzer on their car engine. Maybe it is boosting
mileage as they say. But....when that hydrogen is combusted in the
cylinders, it must create water which then goes into the exhaust
system. Wouldn't this lead to big problems like severe corrosion of
the exhaust system, maybe ruining the cat. converter and the O2
sensor (I know water/coolant can ruin it quickly)? So I wouldn't
dare to experiment with this except on an old clunker that is paid
off, not under any warranty, which I can afford to lose!

Your un-modified I.C.E. also produces water vapor as a by-product. Moisture
will also condense in the exhaust system. If allowed to sit for an extended
period of time, this will result in corrosion. Same caveat applies; an HHO
modified engine is fine, as long as it is run on a regular basis...if you
let the engine sit cold for a long time, there probably will be corrosion,
YMMV.

Yes, I would't do it on a vehicle under warranty. Use an old clunker.
I have used several electrolysers and they DO work but they will
eventually rot the exhaust system. Stainless steel exhaust systems are
expensive but if you really wanted to be safe, you would probably want
high temp ceramic coatings on piston interiors.
As with any efficiency increase, there are tradeoffs and unfortunately
many of the "hydrogen boost" folks won't tell you that, after time,
you can cause serious damage to your car if you don't do it right,

How does hydrogen combust and get water?
Hydrogen is released from water. Hydrogen
is an essential element and doesn't have water in it.

I can understand that there may be a chance
that water gets to the exhaust though.
Most are reporting on the positive effects of
this water vapor. My neighbor is an old mechanic
and understood about water injection from older
technology and how that cleaned out the engine.

when hydrogen 'burns' it just recombines with the oxygen and produces water
vapor.

Fact: Modern engines are designed to run on water without rust damage. Propagandists tell us that the valves of the engine will be destroyed by running HHO. This is NOT TRUE. Late model vehicles have extremely durable valves and valve seats. Oil temperatures are set to remain at levels that are hot enough to remove all moisture from the lubrication system. At the worst, a vehicle owner may wish to invest in a stainless steel muffler.
