> can be easily manipulated via levers and
switches to burn propane, methane, heating oil, ethanol, kerosene, petrol,
diesel, and a handful of other fuels i can't think of right now. would one of
those be handy to have around in a fuel crunch? <
Any older type diesel will run on just about
anything if you mix it sensibly, I fed my old 60s Landrover diesel anything I
could find except neat petrol and still got 30 to 35 miles to the uk
gallon. It had twin tanks so I could start and stop on diesel and run on gunk
when the engine was hot. Those 5 bearing ex army engines were tough but they ran
rather hot if I had too much petrol in the mix.Those multi fuel engines did very
few miles to the gallon from what I was told by an army driver.
