At one point they say that when a car is readied for shredding, it is drained of all liquids and on average this yields 1-3 litres of fuel and 25-30 litres of other liquids (coolant, oil etc.)
Does anyone have any better figures on what...

Coal Vs Alcohol
Seeing as I am back to doing some work on my campaign, I seem to have alot of questions lately.
Using the Pirates of Vistula module as a baseline along with the x2 coal and X3.3 Ethanol Fuel Energy tables from the T2k core rules, I am thinking which would be better to convert say... -
Avgas
DeaconR 10-09-2005, 03:55 AM I wondered if anyone could point me to anything in the forum or anything they know about how viable the production of avgas really is. Does it take away from resources better used on other vital things

Planes Trains and Bio-diesel
abaumgartg 07-09-2005, 05:51 AM I have been meaning to ask about bio-diesel for a while. The posting on planes made me think of it again. I am posting separately because this is a bit tangential to aviation, but related.
I read a while back that bio-diesel could be used to power... -
BioGas Production
Hi,
I thought I had already posted something along these lines here but I couldn't find it - and I thought this was interesting enough to warrant putting up:
I was watching a programme on Sky the other evening about the production of methane from cow (and other manure) and was... -
Evaporation rate
How long for it take for a tankful of gas to evaporated from a sealed gas tank of a car
I was thinking of cars in parking garages that the upper floors collapsed but they were in the underground levels and survived. -
Salvaging Fuel
During some of the last T2K gaming sessions in my campaign (oh so long ago now) the party were at that big airport in New Jersey ESE of NYC (is it JFK) and had been scrounging around for anything they could find in those sections that weren't too much of a radiation hazard. The crash of an Air France...Last edited by Targan; 06-02-2009, 02:24 AM. -
4th soviet Guards Army

If i understand correctly so is this army a big reason to the failure of the spring 2000 offensive.
1. Does it mention anywhere from ware they received it's fuel from
It's must be a huge source of supply if you are going to move an army... -
My custom alochol still calculator.
Littlearmies mentioned trading for a large still in the Cantonments thread. It reminded me of the page below.

This is one of the first things I ever did for T2k on the internet. It is a calculator which used the 3 basic still types... -
Got AvGas?
Just found this forum and I wanted to ask about something I have wondered about ever since I first bought by T2K V1 boxed set back in the early 80s. One of the basic tenets of the T2K game in all its alliterations is that from about 1998 on the worlds airpower was grounded because of damage to petroleum... -
LPG gass bottles
A few questions on LPG gas bottles.
1) do they have these in Europe and the USA Would they be useful in that you could scrounge them and use them as portable fuel
2) if you shot one, say a 9 litre or 2 gallon normal size bbq gas bottle, how big would the explosion really... -
Motoring after the Apocalypse 2; other Alternate Fuels
While ethanol and methanol are the default fuels in T2k, they actually aren't the best fuels available. Wood Gas, mentioned over at RPG.net, is a widely used alternate fuel.
There's plenty of wood, and it's easily harvested. Here's a schematic of the system;

Motoring after the Apocalypse
Okay. The world has ended, you're all dying of cancer and there's nasty guys in strange uniforms shooting at you from the bushes, when you're not being chased by vast packs of feral dogs that is.
In cases like this, I like to think 'what would Jeremy Clarkeson do'
He'd... -
Alternative Fuels
Hey, never thought of it but as many cars over Europe are diesel, regular vegetable oil (olive, wheat, peannuts...) would be used more often than alcohol. In some regions that is easier to make.
With the oil price today, people are already using this (illegaly) here in France. Moreover,... -
Methanol
Didn't want to hijack the VEESS thread but this was going to be my response to the mention of methanol.
(might be a re-post to older forum members)
One of the biggest realism misses that the T2k rules has is the use of methanol. I know it might be a necessary addition to allow...Last edited by kato13; 09-24-2008, 01:46 PM.
