Ethanol usually is run in a spark-ignition type engine. The type that stock runs gasoline.
Modifications include .... changing the fuel-handling components to pass ethanol without dissolving (since ethanol is a different type of solvent than gas) .... richening the fuel mixture to accomadate ethanol's "ideal" air-fuel mixture requirements..... changing the ignition timing curve to match ethanol's different flame speed. If you're a hotrodder, the changes are similar to converting an engine to running on Methanol (aka "racing alcohol") Curtis --------------------- Make her feel special this coming holiday season with flowers www.flowerson55.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Edward Mendoza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Is this true!? All we have to do is fix a bunch of old cars and we can have all of the ethanol running vehicles our society could ever desire? What kind of an engine are we talking about? Gasoline? Diesel? Any modifications?
