The Federal Methanol Fleet, a Department of Energy (DOE) project initiated in 1985, is now in its final phases of operation, and much has been learned about the status of technology available for methanol-fueled vehicles. This paper summarizes results from emissions tests, special lubricant tests, and drivers' impressions of the vehicles. Overall, the project has been a success; drivers have accepted the methanol vehicles quite well; and data and results have been transferred to those who can make best use of them. 7 refs., 3 figs., 5 tabs.
