Converting your Car to Ethanol

After a friend bragged about his neighbor converting his car to run on Ethanol for around $100, I figured I better investigate. While it Ethanol is on its way, my conclusion was that it isn't time to go out and mod the Subaru and risk ruining the engine just yet.

The city of Portland, Oregon will require E85 and biodiesel at all gas pumps instead of their petroleum equivalents by 2009. Details of how this will work for individual vehicle owners while maintaining automobile manufacturer warranties, despite exceeding the manufacturer's maximum warranted operation percentage of 10% of ethanol in fuel, are still being worked as of late-2005.
