Hey guys, I've got a friend with a junk car business. The way this business is, it produces alot of waste gasoline, as it has to be drained from the cars before they can be scrapped. Right now he has to pay to have all the old gas sucked out, which as you know is getting expensive. He'd like to find an old multifuel engine that would be able to burn this old gas, even if he has to "sweeten" it with a little diesel to get a good mix. His idea is that if he can find an engine to burn the stuff he'll be basically getting free power for whatever is attached to it. In his words, the bigger engine, the more fuel it uses, the better, since anything not burned will have to be sucked out at a premium price anyway. For once, fuel efficiency is not an issue... Anybody out there got any ideas on any of the old engines that are capable of such a feat, or has an old engine like this that they are looking to sell? If so, please e-mail me with any ideas, etc you may have. Thanks, Wayne

12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
