I don't know how it works in Canada, but here in the states, using
untaxed fuel on-road, is a big no-no. It is a multi-thousand dollar
fine. Some states will periodically pull over diesel powered vehicles
and do a dye test. You didn't mention if the HHO you get is dyed or not.
I suspect that it is.
>From what I understand, the dye is such a concentration, that the road
test dye check involves a 5:1 dilution. Any residual tint of dye after
the dilution means off-road fuel... Cha-Ching!
That said, people do it. A few gallons here and there shouldn't show up
on their 'radar'. However, YMMV!
