Fuel types and their value: my thoughtsWhen it comes down to diesel(D) Aviation Gasoline(AvG) and Gasoline(G), we may agree that they have fuelvalue as 1(one)...My thoghts about alcohol(A) also has fuelvalue 1... There carengines that get out more horsepower with lesser fuel than a ordinary engine. And a ordinary engine would get out more horsepower with the same amount of fuel. So by my opinion the fuelvalue would be... Ethanol = 1 Methanol = 1 Why doesn't we use Alcohol then in our engines ? Well take Sweden as a example, and we spend all our forrests on fuel, it would only be enough for half of the vehicles for one year ! Then we would be without forests... The other half wood come from agriculture... So you are hungry, well get out riding your car instead, there is where your food went ! For T2k use this would meen that there are no forests in some places ? So you use this realworld stats on your own choise...
