The best way to reduce fuel use is to simply
reduce the size and power of the vehicals.
Smaller engines in lighter cars. Sadly, most
Americans are too selfish to this. They cry
safety is the issue but this could easily be
overcome with better body design, air bags and
seat beat use, perhaps a

I've seen some ads and heard some stuff about
stoves to heat ones home that burn common kernals
of field corn. Does anyone know about these? Do
they do a good job? Which brands are good?

Hello,
I have two extra VW diesel pumps for the
non-turbos of the '80. I think they need rebuilt
but I have a local shop that does a bunch of
these for one of the larger engine rebuilders
around. They use Viton seals and he said that
any biodiesel would work fine. Anyone
interested? I

this? Is it more volitile or explosive than
normal home heating oil? Does it burn as easily
and with comparable heat? Which impurities cause
trouble and how?
Thanks,

Biofuelists,
There has been interesting discussion about
converting waste vegetable oil into biodiesel and
I might try that sometime. But what about just
taking waste vegetable and burning it in an oil
stove to heat ones home? I have an old oil stove
that has a simple carburator on it and

does it, I can give you their email if you wish.

Greg,
You have the same plan I do. I'm looking at a
friends diesel rabbit. I currently have an 87
Jetta gas. It has 232,000 miles on it and it
still gets 35+ MPG.

Steve,
Is yours an older VW from the 80's or so? I'm
still learning about diesels. I'm trying to
rationalize getting an older diesel VW so I can
burn straight biodiesel and give big oil my
little old middle finger.

Don't forget, windmills don't run free. They
need overhauls for the bearings, gearboxes and
broken parts. They do require fixing from time
to time and 10 million would require alot.

Martin,
Good point on the low pressure concern. The
compression stroke and the power stroke (without
fuel) would act as somewhat as an spring. The
compressed air would push the piston down
somewhat. There of course would be some friction
loss but some of the energy would be returned.

Hello,
I am aware that hydrogen combines with oxygen
to make water and give off some electricity but
where does all this hydrogen come from that we
plan to use? I know there is alot out there but
it is mostly bound up in water or some other
chemical isn't it? It takes energy to free this
