I love diesel cars. People who say diesel cars are crap, should sit in a BMW 7 series or a BMW Mach 3……..the power, quality and ride of these cars will simply knock your pants off!

Those that can afford to lead by example don’t…

Many of us have seen this time and time again. The people who can afford to lead by example don’t. What is most interesting here is that many of these people are the loudest ones complaining about environmental issues or gas prices. Al Gore in my opin…

“That day will come”? Tell me about it! I live in Brazil, and gasoline here is ridiculously expensive. We measure it in liters, you know, and we (not sure) developed the alcohol as an alternative fuel, but even so. One liter of gas is now between R$2,40-2,60 – which means US$1,15-1,25 PER LITER. A gallon (we don't use this here) is almost 5L, so, do the math…

Our local transit company experimented for over a year using biodiesel in transit buses, and then found that it gunked up engine sensors to the point manufacturers said it voided the warranty. The buses had the same power, poluted the atmosphere a lot less, and ran very clean internally.
Their main reason for trying it was the environment. Unfortunately the plan is now on hold. Would this be a factor in small engines? I am not sure, but may be worth checking out if you burn other than the recommended fuel.

BTW, regarding my previous post, I think I over did it on the commas. (I should never post before noon, or after 10 pm- that's my new rule.)

I was chatting with my friend, in Baltimore, and he said he has never owned a car, so doesn't have to deal with the BS gas prices. Believe me, if there was decent public transportation, in the L.A./O.C. area, I would never drive again. (When I am at home, and not traveling for work, I try to walk everywhere. Good way to get some exercise, too.)

Believe it or not, you can actually run a diesel engine on straight peanut oil if you heat the oil first by rigging up a line from the coolant hoses from the engine.. What you do is have two tfuel tanks on the car. One for the peanut oil and one for the regular diesel. Run the radiator hoses so that they heat the peanut oil tank. You start the car and run it until it gets up to normal operating temperature on the regular dielsel. Then you switch over to the hot peanut oil and the car will run just like it does on diesel. You just have to remember to switch bak when you stop because the car won't start on cold peanut oil.
