Bioethanol

Post by trundletruc »

What does anyone know about using Bioethanol? There is a new Saab motor that runs on it as well as petrol. It appears that Bioethanol fuel is available in Sweden. It is also made in Brazil. Any type 2s running on it?

It is supposed to give better performance than petrol!

Why is it that we don't hear anything about these alternative fuels in the motoring press in this country, are they just "petrol-heads" and only interested in stupid speeds?

When is the Government going to do some encouraging by reducing tax on these environmentally friendly fuels?

The big question is:- Do I get a TDI engine installed in my trundletruck and use Biodiesel or do I get a Subaru engine and wait for Bioethanol?

Any ideas?
