Re: ethonal, biodiesel and a 2-stroke??

2 strokes you mix the gasoline and the oil. the gas/oil lubricates the internals of the engine since there is no 'oil stroke'. In this case gasoline = ethonal, biodiesel = oil.

With biodiesels extraordinary lubrication properties I am thinking that it may be good enough to lube a 2-stroke.

I am not worried about or trying to ignite the biodiesel through compression, that would never happen in a low compression motor.

What i am worried about is having enough lubrication while still being able to ignite the ethonal.
