Can a car run on ethanol alone?
1 Answers
Car can run on ethanol alone, but the consequences may include severe damage to the vehicle, increased fuel consumption, and varying degrees of reduced engine performance. Ethanol gasoline can cause varying degrees of corrosion to non-ferrous metals and rubber materials in components such as the fuel tank and carburetor. When using ethanol in cars, it should be mixed with gasoline at a ratio of 1:9, meaning 10% ethanol blended with 90% gasoline. If your car runs out of fuel, the solution is to call for assistance: In urban areas, there's no need to panic if your vehicle runs out of fuel. Today's rescue service network is quite widespread, and a simple phone call will bring professional rescuers to help. Therefore, when encountering vehicle issues, calling for assistance is the preferred solution for car owners.
