Can ethanol be used for car fuel?
yes
Is ethanol safe to use in cars?
The car has to be built to run on ethanol. Ethanol requires different fuel lines, injector sizes, computer programming.
Can a car run solely on pure ethanol?
Yes, a car can run solely on pure ethanol, but it may require modifications to the engine to optimize performance. Ethanol is a renewable fuel source that can be used as an alternative to gasoline in some vehicles.
Car won't start in cold weather?
If a car won't start in cold weather it is possible that the valve guides have been worn. This often happens in cars that have been using ethanol as a primary fuel.

How much CO2 does a car running on ethanol fuel produce?
Assuming the fuel is 100% ethanol the reaction is: C2H5OH +3O2 --> 2CO2+3H20 or 1 mole of ethanol (46 g) creates 2 moles (44 x 2=88) of carbon dioxide The density of ethanol is 0.78 g/cm3 or .78 kg/L So the amount of carbon dioxide created by a car fueled by ethanol is about 1.56 kg/liter used. This excludes CO2 from ethanol manufacture.
