People Brew Own Gas To Beat Pump Prices

The market always finds a way. :) Makes me wonder why GM took so long to advertise their flex fuel vehicles. I remember Ford having them in the early 90’s but not for public sale.

WASHINGTON — Some people have become so desperate to find cheaper fuel for their cars they’ve begun making ethanol at home.

There are dozens of Web sites explaining how to make ethanol from homemade stills.

Bill Sasher, owner of a Tennessee company that sells ethanol stills and kits, said that once you’re set up it costs about 75 cents a gallon to brew your own fuel.

Sasher said that with gas prices nationally closing in on $3 a gallon, his business is booming.

Most cars can run on a mixture of ethanol and gasoline, and the new flex fuel cars can run on 85 percent ethanol or regular gasoline.

    I could see this coming. Unfortunately a lot of warranties are about to get voided by people who bought diesel engines in the past two years.
