Hello
I think ethanol is the furthest from the "explosive power" of gasoline and I wonder what it would do to the lining in the tank. There is propane or natural gas. With propane, you could raise the compression to get back some of the lost power, but not so wit natural gas. The other difficulty with the gasses is that they are not re-newable and directly connected with petroleum locations. It seems that the alternative fuel choices for gasoline engine are bad either way.
