How To Fight Back Against High Gas Prices
By Vidar Lura
Be earth friendly and play your part in pollution control by installing fuel saving products to improve fuel economy. Who allow your fuel efficient car to run using ethanol fuel, or even mix of both - e85 fuel.

Flex Fuel Vehicles

Would you like to get better gas mileage and more horsepower? Would you like to contribute to air pollution control while improving your fuel economy? If so, the flex fuel vehicle is the answer. The flex fuel vehicle (FFV) has a single fuel tank, fuel system and engine. The flex fuel vehicle is designed to run on unleaded and an alcohol fuel (usually ethanol) in any mixture. The engine and fuel system in the flex fuel vehicle must be adapted slightly to run on alcohol fuels. There must also be a special sensor in the fuel line to analyze the fuel mixture and control the fuel injection and timing to adjust for different fuel compositions. The flex fuel vehicles offer the owner an environmentally beneficial option whenever the alternative fuel is available.

If you want to save on your annual fuel costs and do something for the cleaner environment, you don't have to buy an expensive flex fuel vehicle or fuel efficient car. ABCesso Technology offers you vehicle fuel conversion system that will make your car more valuable and powerful and, moreover, the fuel conversion device - AutoFFV will allow you to run your car on the alternative fuels, which are very economic and practical.

Can a Fueled Vehicle be Converted into the Fuel Efficient Car?

Yes, a vehicle that was designed to operate on could be converted to operate on e85, alcohol fuel. You don't have to buy the new flex fuel vehicles that cost a fortune - buy reliable and affordable fuel conversion system.

The new fuel conversion tool is the unique fuel vehicle conversion system with perfect technical features. It gives you the chance to decide which fuel to use for your fuel efficient car, be it traditional gasoline, convenient ethanol fuel or even a mix of a both (e85 fuel). Save your money and enjoy perfect driving.

So, what is ethanol? Ethanol is ethyl alcohol which needs to be 100% pure. Ethanol is the highest performance fuel on the market and keeps today's high-compression engines running smoothly. Ethanol-blended fuel (such as e85) keeps your fuel system clean, cause it does not leave gummy exhausts.

And because ethanol burns cleaner, it produces fewer emissions. Today, all ethanol cars manufacturers approve the use of ethanol blended fuels and even recommend to use ethanol for its positive environmental impacts.

The use of an ethanol will allow to increase the performance of ethanol cars in general. Initial tests showed that ethanol may also extend from 20 to 80% the engine's maintenance. The conversion of existing engines is not only feasible, but also cost effective.

One of the most convenient ethanol-gasoline mixtures is called e85 and consists of 85% ethanol to 15% gasoline. Ethanol fueled cars are specially designed to run well as on the mixture of ethanol to gas as on alcohol fuel, moreover, they are able
