Removed text: Diesel fuel, unlike gasoline, is only for use in diesel engines. This sweeping generalisation is not true, yachtsmen in particular use stoves that burn diesel. It is a useful fuel for any situation where the fire risk from stored fuel needs to be minimised. I'm not quite sure what the removed text was trying to say! Andrewa 23:53, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I don't think, under alcohol, that "they combust rapidly (too rapidly for fossil fuel replacement)" is correct. Alcohols have higher ignition and flash points that hydrocarbons. Or do I not understand what is meant?

[edit] Database glitch

This edit blanked most of the page, perhaps accidentally, I've had similar glitches myself. One further edit was lost in reverting. Andrewa 06:12, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
