I don't think there is such a thing as a U.S. mile. Back in the 1950's my high school teacher told us that the U.S. and Britain had agreed to compromise on the Canadian definition of the inch as *exactly* 2.540 centimetres. So as far as the mile goes we're all on the same page: 12 inches to the

How much Bio D can be added to a gasoline engine before it starts to cause problems? I have heard that some will add a gallon or two of diesel to gasoline engine's fuel tank if the engine has a slight knock. I guess that the slower burn speed of the diesel helps to reduce eliminate the knock?
