hmm well the label on everclear does say that its 95% volume,so technically i guess it would be a suitable substitute for 95% ethanol if you were stuck,id still recommend buying the ethanol youd use in a lab unless its for a burner

What are the concerns of using ethanol as a fuel?

Ethanol has many considerations as far as its use as an automotive fuel.\: # On the plus side it is a liquid and easily handled in the present transportation and delivery systems. # On the negative side: * Ethanol from food crops removes food from the system * It requires more energy to produce ethanol than the automobile gets out of the ethanol (Crops require fertilization and fertilizers are made using hydrocarbons, ethanol is made by fermaentation, the fermentation products require distillation, the ethanol is a less efficient fuel than gasoline) * Ethanol combustion creates tail pipe emissions of aldehydes and ketones at levels not present in hydrocarbon fuelled autos * There is not enough land to produce enough ethanol fuel while maintaining food production * Ethanol from waste cellulose is not being pursued asa production route

What harm can be done to your 1998 TC 3.8 engine and fuel pump if you use ethanol?

Ethanol is safe to use with rubber gaskets, methanol isn't. Ethanol is mixed with the gasoline you purchase from your local gas station. I'd refrain from using a 100% mixture, though. Interestingly, 100% ethanol is available on the liquor store shelf- Everclear. I'd save it for tasty drinks though, as it would be too expensive to fill your car with, and your engine wouldn't run very well.

How do you heat everclear?

Not a good idea to do this. Everclear is 180 to 190 proof, or 90 to 95% pure alcohol. It is EXTREMELY flamable. It can blow up and burn you or kill you. I cannot conceive of a use for 'warmed everclear'. It is something to add alcohol to a mixed drink or punch. Be careful.
