I hope someone can tell me:
1) Can alcohol with non-corrosive additives be the fuel for regular,
unmodified internal combustion engines?
2) What would be the comparative cost of alcohol versus gasoline at the pump,
disregarding the cost of pump modification?
3) Would an alcohol-fueled combustion engine have any pollutant exhaust?
4) What other room termperature liquid fuel replacements to gasoline exist?
