Would you drive a hydrogen fuel cell car?
tantamount_to_anarchy asked:
Honda will come out with a car leaseable of hydrogen fuel cell, Honda FCX, in 2008. This vehicle will get around 550km per tank, or about 350 miles. Probably you’ll have to have a hydrogen domestic reform the station that takes its propane (C3H8) and breaks it apart and uses hydrogen as fuel for your house and car. If you hate one of the following (oil, Bush, terrorists, Hugo Chavez, Nigerian mafia… etc.), rent one of these cars would mean that stopped to give money that would have finally found it ’sense of know those people. Is your civic duty to help defeat terrorists and cartels of oil in the Middle East by reducing or stopping oil use all together? Condurreste a car fuel-cell economy for that reason?
how much can you save using an autogas (LPG) tank as opposed to petrol and diesel?
mr.t asked:
I have a petrol and a diesel engine. the 'M. who thinks to have both converted into autogas. the 'd gradice know what my savings would be. if anyone can give me comparisons of percentage of distance in miles or km / L, gallon / mile comparisons, which would be great. thanked the comrades!

Vegetable oil engine conversion
Straight or waste vegetable oil can’t be safely used as engine fuel, until it’s prepared properly. One of the ways to prepare it is to turn it to biodiesel. The other way is to install some additional stuff in your car. That’s what I’m writing about today.
I wrote here about modifying engine to use vegetable oil as a fuel already. But since one image is worth more than a thousand words, here’s a nice simplified scheme of vegetable oil engine conversion. (more…)
What could be the diesel fuel problem beyond the filter, preventing my F250 from starting?
howdy asked:
Suddenly, that has difficulties to begin my 'Diesel 94 F-250. Manovelle engine, but it won 't fire I 'the VE has verified that the fuel is getting pompasse to filter fuel / water separator, which I' the VE emptied (it 's new, so I don' t see how it can be blocked on the contrary.) How / where else can check to see if there is a problem beyond separating water / fuel?
