Hi

As Petrol is taxed because it is used in cars I was wondering if there
was a good substitute for running petrol tools . Generators movers etc.

I know LPG is used but is there anything else that would work without
modding the equipment.

Any Thoughts.

AVGAS is not taxed, although when I was still flying it was not much
different in price from motor fuel with the tax.

I am afraid to say I think it is now :-{ Currently about £1.90-ish per
litre inc VAT (as is Jet-A1/Avtur if not for 'commercial' use I believe).
