Oil to go over $100 barrel again!

Post by tailor »

I read the above statement on the internet today and after the last fiasco relating to oil prices it got me thinking.....Alas again!

What if any are the experiences of forum members with alternative fuels/Biofuel /chip oil , etc.
What are the processes that you followed to convert your vehicle to alternate fuels?
Can it even be done on our Volvos?

Well I was trolling tonight and I came across these postings from ....another forum :oops: anyhoooo, there appears to be some really serious folks out there who have had or done themselves, conversions to LPG.

The thread above is good reading and the guys below do the conversions.

And I found another in BC , a little closer to home. http://www.technocarb.com

Any body here in North America/Canada done something like this conversion?
