Vechiles that can run on an ethanol blend (commenly called E85) are already for sale. Most major car companies have models that have that particular feature.
Depends on where you live. Closer to the midwest, like Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, much cheaper than gas, the farther away from there, the more expensive. Typically the break even point to run E85 vs gas is $0.60 a gallon, if you aren't at LEAST that amount difference, then it isn't cost effective to run.
There is no telling when the world will run out of natural gas. This all depends on whether or not it is conserved.
E85 is an ethanol blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. It is primarily used as fuel for flex-fuel vehicles, which are designed to run on a range of ethanol-gasoline blends. E85 is considered a renewable fuel source and offers certain environmental benefits, but its use may result in reduced fuel efficiency compared to gasoline.
Something like half of gas fireplaces run on propane. There are two major gases used in gas fireplaces. The cheaper is natural gas, while the more expensive is propane.
If there isn't a sticker on or near the gas cap that says E85, or flex fuel it is not recommended to run E85. A 10% mixture that is sold at most gas pumps is ok.
It's designed to run on " regular " unleaded gas - 87 octane . The gasoline can have a maximum of 10 % ethanol ( If you mean E 85 - NO ! )
yes the first model t did run on gas but Henry Ford also built it to run on alcohol(Ethanol)
From what I've heard, if your vehicle was not designed to run on ethanol, don't put it in the tank. Ethanol is a type of alcohol, and will corrode fuel lines, fuel injectors and cause a number of problems. 99, suburban....I'd use regular gas to be safe
Regular pump gas. I like to add some Gumout and Stabil to all the gas I run in my small engines. And always remember to run your engines dry and/or shut off the fuel supply at the end of the season- gas with ethanol (most pumps have up to 10% ethanol) will clog up your carburetor if it sits.
Nothing. The Villager can run any normal ethanol-oxygenated gas up to 15% with no problem.
i run valvoline 5w-30 in my 5.3 liter. owners manual will give recomendations.
Purchase some more.
Usually it doesn't run at all once much water gets in the gas. Sometimes it'll spit and sputter and stall and have a pronounced power loss. If your gas has ethanol in it, it can have dissolved water as well as the usual undissolved sort. Dissolved water in the gas just makes it run artificially lean.
FlexFuel means you can run both gasoline and ethanol in the vehicle. Ethanol is corrosive so the fuel system has to be plastics to not corrode in contact with ethanol.
10% ethanol is added to help both emmissions and stretch the gasoline supply further. BUT if you go to Tennessee you have a choice of 100% gasoline or the 10% ethanol mix, i have found the gas mileage actually improves on 100% gas and seems to run a little smoother.I was quite surprised myself.
It really depends on the engine. You shouldn't use ethanol mixed gas in any of them, but really the only one that will give you troubles is the 850. The 850 is very picky about fuel, and poor fuel can make it stumble and not run at all. Run only high-octane, non-ethanol fuel in an 850. The older 500 and 800 engines will run fine on pretty much any pump gas.
