Default RE: Substitute for Ether

I just received my Amsoil cetane booster and found a manufacturer of B100 about a mile from my girls house.

Time to break out my DDD head and find a ST45. I have some KL200 oil. As soon as I get the B100 I'll see if the KL200 will mix with it. I also have some Klotz model lube for gas engines to see if it will mix. It is supposed to be clean burning. I can set up the Super Tigre on regular ether fuel, try the B100 and oil and then B100, oil and cetane. Biodiesel may need preheat of the fuel and better atomization.

For some interesting engine and fuel atomization ideas check out this site http://www.rexresearch.com/index.htm

I was introduced to the Babington principal many years ago. Using it you can atomize #2 fuel oil to a fine fog and it will burn as clean as natural gas.
