Good evening ladies and gentlemen,

while China is building hundreds of new coal plants, Swedish politicians are in panic over emissions caused by commuters who run their cars on petrol. Thus, petrol and diesel taxes are soaring.

In order to protect myself against that, I thought I'd convert my Rover to run on ethanol, which is taxed more moderately.

Sulfate mucking down the injection system is no longer an issue, as new regulations came in 2010, limiting the content of that substance. Apart from having to change the oil more frequently, are there other things to worry about?

Have any of you done this?

Yours sincerely,
Erik
