U tell my Y this deconstruction of water and burning of Hydrogen is a bad Idea,

I dont get the complicated replies.
You mean you don't get the following:
X+Y=X means Y=0
Is that what you don't get?

Say you have 15 gallons of water.
You use X number of joules of electricity to obtain Y cubic feet of hydrogen.
When you burn these Y cubic feet of hydrogen in the engine, you get 15 gallons of water plus Z number of joules of energy.
These Z joules of energy need to be split into Z1 (for moving the car) and Z2 (for preparing hydrogen). If you look up above, you'll see that Z2=X.
The balance then goes like this (if you assume everything has 100% efficiency, which it doesn't)
X=Z1+X
If you look at this equation, you'll see that the best case scenario is Z1=0, which means you get nada to propel your car.

I guess magnetic over unity devices don't work either.
I'll be sure to tell my electrical engn'r that his device at work is only an illusion.

It is a dangerous thing to use words like "can't" or "impossible" because so many times in history people had to eat their words but until this "share-ware" project shares it's design then I will have to say "be wary".

No I'm not. The point is, if you separate H2 and O2 out of water, then burn it, you won't get any energy above what you expended in the separation process.
You can't trick the conservation of energy law, no matter what frequency you use.
You don't get the difference between fusion and combustion, do you?
The 'phase' of the water is not being changed; rather, it is being decomposed into its constituents, which happen to exist in a gaseous state at the temperatures involved.

The electrical energy here 3v @50Amps is being used to phase change the water to a gas by breaking the attraction between the electrons of the Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms.

There are other ways to break the bonds of water besides electricity. In the video I saw, they didn't use any electricity, but relied on a chemical reaction, from what I could tell...

Conservation of Energy.

Simply look at a Hydrogen Fuel Cell. It is converting water into electrical energy via the releasing of electrons between hydrogen and Oxygen. And is proven to work.
The transformation of energy is the second part of the conservation of energy principle.

No Tricks. The energy is already in existence. Just Like the gasoline you buy at the pump, it is stored as potential energy until being transformed.
They began using these Wood Gas Carburetors in which to run their cars. In essence you could run your car by burning wood inside this carburetor and thereby capturing the gas it actually powered the vehicle.
In this case the energy being created to cause the separation will not move the vehicle but the reaction to the action creates another energy that moves the vehicle

True, there are many ways to break down water. In any of these, the amount of energy you put in as at the very least as much as you will get back when burning the resulting gas mix.
