Can a 2000 Buick Century run on any kind of alternative fuel?

I've been researching some on alternative fuels lately, namely E85 and CNG. And so far, it doesn't look like our 2000 Buick Century will run on any of them. Is this true? And where can I find concrete documentation if it will run on one? Also, any idea of how much conversion for certain alternative fuels might cost for a 2000 Buick Century?|||@00 Buicks have a great gas engine in them. They are workhorses that mechanics love to get their hands on for other projects. You could do a conversion to propane but that's about your only option.|||Your best bet is to look at the owner's manual. If that doesn't help try one of the car repair manuals at a local library.


You might be already using ethanol additive in the gasoline you buy.


But really consider the benefits of using any of these bio fuels. Your car engine might not be able to handle the change. These engines are made to run on gasoline, not ethanol only.|||I came across a very interesting piece of news the other day, and I quote: "Build and install a low-cost alternative method for running your vehicle (internal combustion engine) on tap water, using off-the-shelf components. This is simply an efficient way to convert ordinary tap water into gaseous hydrogen and oxygen, and then burn these vapours in the engine instead of gasoline. This "mini system" runs easily from your existing battery and electrical system, and it plugs into your carburetor with simple off-the-shelf fittings.

The cost will be expensive, but 80% of the cost can be absorbed in tax deductions. The Goverment will also give you a rebate for every gallon used and also a tax deduction on every gallon used. Check out "The Clean Air Act" on the I.R.S. webpage.


There are forms that can be downloaded to take advantage of this program. My "98" Chevy 4x4 runs on propane and gasoline, 156,000 miles and runs great.
