thats salt water from the ocean

if in not mistaken sea water also has high phosphuros levels too which addes in electolysis, this is why there are lead bars on crab pot and they get hot actuallly

That doesn't' have anything to do with the electrolysis of pure salt water. Anything that turns the water into more of an electrolyte is going to make a better environment for electrolysis. Just having h20 and NaCl is going to yield chlorine gas, hydrogen, and an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide producing an exothermic reaction. Trust it.

Blown turbo seals? I doubt that that is the case for some reason, but it's coming down to some really odd symptoms...
