A heating assembly comprises a first inlet, a first outlet, and tubing connecting the first inlet to the first outlet. A hydrogen generator is contained within the housing assembly. It comprises a second inlet and a second outlet, and at least a top wall and a base wall. The top wall is at a predetermined angle to allow the aqueous solution to flow and circulate into a connecting tube. The hydrogen generator comprises negative charged rods and positive charged rods. The hydrogen generator generates hydrogen and oxygen gas for use in an internal combustion engine to improve combustion efficiency and to decrease emissions. The hydrogen generator serves as an electrolysis cell to generate the oxygen and hydrogen gas with electric current from a power source being passed through the aqueous solution. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A hydrogen system for diesel and gas engines, comprising: A) a housing assembly containing an aqueous solution;
