This still doesn't make any sense. It takes energy to decompose the water into hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis, and if that comes from the tractor's charging system, that's using the engine's power output to perform the electrolysis. Due to the charging system and the electrolysis process not being 100% efficient, there will be a net LOSS of efficiency. C'mon now, if this was that great and amazing, it'd already be incorporated into current engines.
