Internal combustion engine kit with electrolysis cell
First Claim
1. An internal combustion engine kit for producing a combustible gas to enhance combustion of an internal combustion engine, the internal combustion engine kit comprising:
- at least one electrolysis cell, to produce a combustible gas, said at least one electrolysis cell having a cathode and an anode, wherein said cathode and said anode are in the form of spaced apart rings within said body, each ring having a plurality of fingers extending therefrom. the fingers of the anode being adjacent to the fingers of the cathode to promote electrolysis;
a power conditioning means, to provide appropriate electrical power to said at least one electrolysis cell;
a water reservoir, to provide water to said at least one electrolysis and an electronic controller, for controlling the supply of electrical power to the electrolysis cells, so that the electrolysis cells can perform electrolysis, and for controlling the supply of water from the water reservoir to the electrolysis cells.

Abstract
An electrolysis cell and internal combustion engine kit including an electrolysis cell is disclosed. The cell includes a sealed plastic body having an inlet and an outlet. The plastic body includes a first terminal located at the top of the body, a second terminal located adjacent to the first terminal and insulated conductors associated with each terminal extending through the body and towards the bottom end thereof. Each terminal ends in a respective anode and cathode which are operatively connected to the terminals. The anode and cathode are spaced apart from one another within the body. When an electrolysis solution is placed in the body, and a current provided across the electrodes, water is caused to decompose into hydrogen and oxygen. These combustible gases are then passed into the internal combustion engine to increase the efficiency and power thereof. In one embodiment a reservoir is provided to ensure that the level is maintained in the cell. Safety features include a low level sensor switch and low level shut off, a temperature sensor and high temperature cut off, and a pressure sensor and high pressure cut off.
