Why is my bubbler on my HHO generator not bubbling?

I have install a HHO Gen on my Honda Passport. Everything works great except my vacuum is not pulling in any HHO because the bubbler isn't bubbling! I'm stumped. I have added more than enough baking soda, even a little vinegar. What could be the problem?

I'm sure you already checked this,but are the electrodes connected to a high current source?The system uses more than 20amps which easily blows fuses and connections.A test light at the hho unit will tell it all.Good luck,hope your experiment works out.
I would also consider using a different electrolyte mixture. Baking soda corrodes your electrodes very quickly. I use 3/4 tsp of Roebic drain opener. You can only buy it at Lowes. It is very caustic!!!!!! Be ultra careful when handling.
Sounds like you have it installed to your Air Intake and not the vacuum line (PCV location). Only the PCV will give you the vacuum that will cause air bubbles to exchange through the vacuum adjustment valve (which alot of people mistakingly call a bubbler).
If you're referring to an actual bubbler (which is a separate container in which the HHO gas is passed through a level of water before entering the engine), then it is not a vacuum issue at all. It would then be a leak in the line going to your bubbler if -in fact- your generator is functioning properly and creating HHO.
