This is a new one on me - I'm familiar with most internal combustion fuels, all the way down to pulverized coal, but I've never heard of this. Pretty cool.

I found this at lunch yesterday whilst PDA googling something else. Went to bed too early with a big meal, and I'm up now. :rolleyes:

At 4 am? Yeah. :flipoff2:

Interesting stuff. I've heard of derivitives of paraffin being used for fuels... :shrug:

I get 2 kids up and ready for school so I can't get to the net right away.:)
My 52 m211s operating instruction placards say they require minimum 73 octane fuel. Since I am at 10000 ft elevation I could probably run that TVO in them. Someone brew up a batch?
