Gunner, wouldn't it be easier to convert a gas engine to alcohol and
then just distill your own hooch for it. A reflux distiller can get
195 proof in one run. You can ferment all sorts of trash and boiling
can be done with almost any heat source although heat control is
important for a reflux column.


I'm wondering how many Federal and local law hoops you would have to
jump through to legally distill your own alcohol for fuel. It is
against Federal law now to make your own without being licensed by
BATF. I'm sure there are many who will not let that stop them from
doing it but some would want to be in compliance with the law.
