Question

I have a gas car and want to switch to bio fuel what do i have to do to my car?

Answer 1

you cant unless you get a whole new engine. you can only switch over diesel fueled vehicles

Answer 2

Get a diesel engine.

And then at the fuel shop you buy bio-diesel.

Because bio-diesel is cooking oil.

Only from fries.

Answer 3

If you can shell out enough money for a bio fuel engine, then do that. I don't even think that's possible though. Other than that, all you can do is buy a new vehicle.

Answer 4

The biofuel equivalent for gasoline is ethanol.  All modern gas cars can run up to 10% ethanol- this is common in the midwest.  Many more recent cars, particularly those by General Motors, may be 'Flex-Fuel' and can run on up to 85% ethanol, which is called 'E85'-good luck finding it outside the corn belt.

Will help you find out whether this is the case.

If you want to convert your engine, you can.   This generally involves major modifications to the fuel injection setup (particularly in terms of timing).  I've seen a kit for 5-600 dollars:
