About time something was done! Having said that my car (daily drive Calibra) runs on LPG so the increase in petrol prices doesn't affect me to much, but im still up for some blockades if my dad lets me borrow a tractor. :twisted:

99.9p for Optimax in Coventry :cry:

does anyone know of the alternative fuel that could be used in petrol engines developed by a farmer but then he was foreced to sell the technology to the MOD. its a bit like the veg oil in a diesel car, but for a petrol engine instead, i think it was about 20 years ago or something, maybe the older members will know, or ask yer dads!
