    Why is there something 'wrong' with biofuel ie biodiesel? Is it too hard to produce? Is it too costly? What the issues with it? On the face of it, it sounds like a viable alternative - at least for blending.

    May one point out that petrol and diesel are also biofuels. They are made from rotten trees and such. They are also replaceable. Just needs a bit of patience, the process is replicable. Just takes time, like cheese.

    I'd rather follow a biofuel diesel than a regular diesel (yes fuel is organic, you know what im saying), instead you can smell mexican food or shark and taties instead of COUGH COUGH F**KING DIESEL! of course i am talking about being in a car, i follow nothing on the bike, lol.
    But i think ethanol would be great for nz. just like brazil. im sure they have lots of sporty hot chicks playing on the beach cuz they have ethanol for fuel, nothing to do with anything else, cause and effect i say.
    who are you?
    F**K of out of it,
    YOU DON"T KNOW!
    Uh erm........
    But NZ govt loves its taxes, democracy doesn't work, the sun doesn't shine it just reflects my greatness, you're all sick, i once new a guy who had a rover, he bent over, now hes buried in the ground like a dead chicken and the starch from his collar is making him itch!!!!!!
    Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

Or make a still and brew up some methanol/ethanol (Not sure whisch is which - oops sorry been dsrinking a bit of it!)
    The stupid ,ignorant, arse media,because of their "arts degrees",don't know science from their arses.
    Water is never a fuel.It is a combustion product.
    Hydrogen can be used as a fuel,if extracted from water in a process that uses more energy than it provides.

    Btw When everyones driving a vehicle that "only produces water vapour in it's exhaust",remember that water vapour is a green house gas.

    I love the way everytime someone in NZ runs his diesel on vege oil, the media wankers react like this is news.
    More than five years ago,a dodge van was driven around the world on Macdonald's used cooking oil.

    And why does this guy reckon the "conversion" will cost $2500?
    I've read accounts of people putting used cooking oil,once the potato bits are filtered out, straight into unmodified diesels.
