Alternative Fuels
I found some ebooks about alternative fuels on a non profit website, and I'm posting the links here as someone might find them interesting
They may be downloaded free but it is requested that you purchase a lifetime membership (about $12) which will help defray the costs so keeping the website open for future expansion.
This website covers numerous subjects including alternative health.
Cash, John D. and Martin G. Cash. Producer Gas For Motor Vehicles. Sydney: Angus & Robertson, 1940.
A WWII manual for producing your own motor vehicle fuel. The scan for this book was supplied by a library patron. Downloads as a PDF of 2.4 mb.

Hoye, David. Solargas: How to easily make your own auto and heating fuel for pennies a gallon. Los Angeles: International Publishing, 1979.
Much in the same tradition as Possum Living, this book clearly and simply demonstrates how any energetic and determined person can easily make all the ethanol and/or methanol a person could need from all sorts of organic wastes, corn, sugar beets, etc., using home-made equipment of great simplicity, and best of all, this alcohol production is entirely powered by the sun. The only things restricting this production are various governmental restrictions on the production of alcohol and the Establishment propaganda that intends to keep people dependent. This might be the most important single book on the entire website. Downloads as a PDF of 3.3 mb.

LaFontaine, H. and F.P. Zimmerman. Construction Of A Simplified Wood Gas Generator for Fueling Internal Combustion Engines In A Petroleum Emergency--Final Report. Washington, D.C., FEMA, 1989.
