Anyone ever run their geo on an alternative fuel?

[absolut_vodka]

Ethanol, Hydrogen, Water, biodiesel, diesel?

Just wondering.

I run Av gas on track day

Only the 10% ethanol they put in our winter fuel in CO.

If there had been a diesel engine availble in a metro, I've have been all over it.

Biodiesel rocks! Seed crops for fuel mean less imported petroleum.
It's infuriating that our gov't isn't promoting this stuff aggressively, but it makes sense if you look at who's running the show...

that didn't fly and i bet a diesel metro wouldn't either...unfortunately.

I know a guy that owns a diesel chevette, the last I knew he was trying to sell it.

I like the Hydrogen idea. Anyone know how stable these home-made hydrogen extractors are?
