Well, it's an interesting question.
As a side-issue I have to say that I have never quite understood why
the energy content per Gallon of Ethanol is such a big deal. A
so-called "Downside". So you have to build a slightly bigger fuel
tank. Big deal.
It's only about 27%-29% less, or so, in

Hey all.I know that ethanol is alot cleaner burning than
gasoline,and
is renewable.Those are its good points.On the downsinde,it has a much
lower heat value than gasoline,making it necessary to use more at a
time for the same amount of power.Does any one know of a way to
produce a renewable,e
Greetings List:
I think an Aging Test on WVO would be a good idea.
Use one set of same source WVO kept at eg: 45 degrees, another at 80.
Subsets exposed to light, and not. (Assume air exposure is bad, and
limit that.)
Kept for 30, 90, 180 days.
Then processed, and evaluated for yield
I've been trying to set up this experiment, which has not
been done to date
by anyone I know of. My experience is that it takes about a month of driving to
get the engine noise back to full blast after using any portion of biodiesel.
So if you do this, maximize the original conditions and reco

Yahoo has no record of any previous posts from you. Yahoo doesn't
actually lose any posts. Either your previous posts didn't get as far
as Yahoo (in which case any problem is at your end)

Hi
This, hopefully, is my first successful post. My 3 previous ones
never appeared. Anyways.
Methanol is not a major problem, provided you take reasonable
precautions. We go through a fair bit of the stuff (several drums
every month). We ground the drums, ventilate the area and make sure
That is one of the things that caught my attention also. They seem tohave no
technical information about their engine. This is one of the reasons I posted
the web address here so that I could get some feedback since I am not
mechanically inclined. I would love to read other peoples feedback
Here is a current grant program that might be useful for a biodiesel
development project. My one track mind recently.

Whilst I in no way advocate carelessness when handling
chemicals the dangers
should be put into perspective. A comparison of the Material Safety Data
Sheets for methanol and petrol (gas in US) show some similarities in
dangers. Chemicals can be handled safely. Be forewarned of the dangers and

How does one preface this? I think just a quiet "Oh? Really?"

IMO there's no good reason to keep trading in ethanol so insulated
from other market forces. Let it be more transparent and
part-of-the-process, is my thought.
