A description is given of a project to identify all significant problems associated with using methanol or methanol/ gasoline blends in present highway vehicles, to identify and evaluate all potentially practical solutions by way of fuel modification, and to make appropriate recommendations for further study and performance testing. ERDA has identified methanol as one of the logical candidate fuels for the period beyond 1985. The project aims at the transition period, or an emergency situation in which it is desired to use methanol in existing vehicles, either neat or in blends with gasoline. However, when its results are combined with those of the complementary project on engine modification, guidance will be provided for further research towards the mutual adaptation process. Because the contract started only last month, the report is devoted more to plans than to accomplishments. (ERA citation 02:049136)
