  1. Steam.  For a real renewable source of energy we should all drive steam powered cars.  We could grow trees and then burn them to create steam.  Look folks, you can go on and on about "green" fuels.  If you say that electric cars do not pollute, then my house does not pollute.  If you were to take all the "bad" stuff we have put in the air, water, or in the earth from the dawn of time until now; it would not equal even one minutes worth of output from a volcano.


  2. Yes, it's the "World's Cleanest Car" that runs on compressed air.  

    "BBC News is reporting that a French company has developed a pollution-free car which runs on compressed air. India's Tata Motors has the car under production and it may be on sale in Europe and India by the end of the year.

    The air car, also known as the Mini-CAT or City Cat, can be refueled in minutes from an air compressor at specially equipped gas stations and can go 200 km on a 1.5 euro fill-up -- roughly 125 miles for $3. The top speed will be almost 70 mph and the cost of the vehicle as low as $7000.

    The car features a fibreglass body and a revolutionary electrical system and is completely computer-controlled. It is powered by the expansion of compressed air, using no combustion at all, and the exhaust is entirely clean and cool enough for use in the internal air conditioning system. "

  3. My diesel is a older one without computers.It will burn 100% used cooking oils,or used transmission fluid,and motor oil.I have a heater that thins the fuel down to the thickness of diesel.

  4. If you have a gasoline engine car you can get it slightly modified and burn Methanol (wood alcohol), Ethanol (Grain alcohol), Isopropyl Alcohol (made from propane) or Butynol (made from butane).  You can actually burn pure Butynol in an unmodified car with no problems, it is very close to Gasoline in the way it operates an ICE.

  5. ethanol

    but it doesn't help the environment

  6. vegetable oil

  7. I have a diesel pick-up

    we fried turkeys for Thanksgiving and instead of just throwing out the used oil I just put it in my gas tank. My exhaust smelled like fried turkeys for the next week.

    note that you can only do this with a diesel and you must filter the used oil, mix it with regular diesel and then only do this in the summer months and not very often either,  but it DOES work
