" plus additives including detergents, and possibly oygenators such as MTBE (Methyl tert-butyl ether) or ethanol/methanol. These compounds all alter the stoichiometric ratio, with most of the additives pushing the ratio downward (oxygenators bring extra oxygen to the combustion event in liquid form that is released at time of combustions; for MTBE-laden fuel, a stoichiometric ratio can be as low as 14.1:1). Vehicles using an oxygen sensor(s) or other feedback-loop to control fuel to air ratios (usually by controlling fuel volume) will usually compensate automatically for this change in the fuel's stoichiometric rate by measuring the exhaust gas composition, while vehicles without such controls (such as most motorcycles, and cars predating the mid-1970's) may have difficulties running certain botique blends of fuels (esp. winter fuels used in some areas) and may need to be rejetted (or otherwise have the fueling ratios altered) to compensate for special botique fuel mixes."

yes, thank you for pointing that out to me, but if we were to use n-butanol, all we would need to do is change the air to fuel ratio in general older model's, that would be going under the hood and doing some simple changes, but i think in newer models, all you would need to do is unplug the battery for a change like that. but gauging is a problem.

i'll admit. i was wrong. i forgot that butanol [I]just[I] made it. as much butanol is made as is much ethanol. i made a mistake.

But n-butanol does have advantages over ethanol. and that cannot be ignored.

why ethanol at all? i say we swtich to butanol, its much better. it has more power, we can make twice as much as with ethanol, and best of all.. we don't have to pay a dime switching our cars on it.

think it can stand up to desertification? i know thats pretty rough.

is there anyway to reduce the stunted growth in the regions?
