| Alcohol Powered 2 stroke engine Posted: 24 May 2011 04:49 AM PDT I have an old scooter engine (+ the scooter :P) and I wanna run it on pure ethanol for a project. On my research on the internet, I found that people are rather divided on the topic: some say it is the fuel of the future and the others say that ethanol has many disadvantages, like-- 1. it absorbs water 2. it dissolves the motor oil, causes high rate of wear and tear. 3. eth from organic resources (which I wanna use) contains high amount of resins, which clog up the engine. My main problem, however, is running a 2 Stroke engine on ethanol, and I can't find much data on this specific problem. Can you please help?:) |
