It actually works, but the energy used to break water into hydrogen and oxygen also has to come from somewhere... so, the gain is under doubt. I've read about the HHO engines a year ago, and the conclusion there was that the hype won't make it any more efficient ;).
OTOH, these engines:

The concept isn't new, but may just be feasible with today's materials.
