This video shows how an American bloke has his diesel engine running on any oil, check it out. I'm placing this here to motivate my fellow Kiwis to get in touch with their elected representatives, insisting they stop messing about, and treat the current fuel situation as the real crisis that it is.
Here's how the government can do this:
- Get the mechanical and chemical engineering departments of New Zealand universities together to sort out what works best, quickest, ignoring environmental, health and safety, just how to get enough diesel to power emergency response, trains, ferries, farms, hospitals and key transport and agriculture;
- Mobilise the NZ Army engineers;
- Using existing emergency legislation, grab all those elements needed to feed NZ's own set-up;
- Cease exporting oil in the immediate sense.
- As a side project look at all wood waste and how much of it can be quickly turned to ethanol;
- Treat LPG as like 4 and 5 above;
- Then roll this out; what is created is a system of liquid fuels which can all run engines of differing types whether it be fuel oil, diesel, petrol etc.,
- You've got 60 days.
