Govt warns motorists - ILLEGAL TO DISTILL ETHANOL AT HOME

HUH? That would only be for BIOdiesel. Totally different. The topic
is "Ethanol". Plus you should never have more than a 10% concentration
of Ethanol in a typical car. It will eat away at the combustion
chamber and fuel lines. It's corrosive and non flex fuel cars are not
set up for it.

If you are distilling the stuff at home it would be too difficult to
get the mix/ratio correct every time.

How much do the oil companies pay you to spread these lies?

Nice of you to address the issue, homo. :-)

This is no joke. Bush has gotten away with stealing two elections and
blowing up WTC and lying america into war. So don't put a third term
attempt past him. I mean who's gonna stop him. The democrats and the
media are totally bought off.

"Staggering," or "falling," or "staggering and falling," in his drunken
daddy's foot steps? Pause for thought: will patty boi be becoming a fat
slob like tubby?? <evil grin>

ethanol will also cause corrosion and attack seals not made of materials
to resist it. However it will take some time before the parts begin to
fail in most cases.

Yes it's called "E85". A blend that is 85% Ethanol, 15% Gasoline.

Methanol was used in LA's Buses years back and the project was scrapped
because the engines kept blowing up. Methanol is highly corrosive and
has been banned from on highway use.

Nooo... racing cars that run on alcohol (funny car dragsters included) run on
_methanol_, not ethanol.

I've never heard of any such law - where is this, that methanol has been banned
from highway use??? Its _impractical_ for highway use because gas stations
don't sell it, but "banned"? I don't think so.

There's at least one dragster powered by ethanol.(Top Alcohol)

Indy cars still use methanol.

ISTR that Indy cars will be switching to ethanol in the near future.
