Scotty,

Can you do a video on cars that can run on both gas and pure alcohol, and if you can make you own alcohol to run your car?

Usually it's not a good idea, they usually require very clean ETHANOL to run.

It's kind of a dead idea, it was popular 10-15 years ago but it never really picked up popularity.

Volvo-Ford have even perfected and engine that could last forever and get switched from ethanol to petrol and back (Based on a Mazda MX-5 Engine). as far as I know, although mechanically it was ready and worked quite well this project was discontinued.

The only people I know of who have successfully made their own fuel are those with old non-computerized diesels (usually old diesel VW, Mercedes, or Volvo models) run on vegetable oil.
