Construction of a Simplified Wood Gas Generator for Fueling Internal Combustion Engines



I don't remember how I came across this, but apparently I bookmarked it. FEMA did something useful!



People want environmentally-friendly cars, what's more "sustainable" than wood?

That looks like fun. I think I'll invite some friends over and drink a few beers and build one!

Burning wood actually releases a lot of carcinogens I don't think the EPA is going to like this

All wood, or just certain types?

Wow that sounds cool. I am going to have to be a lumberjack and cut down some trees for fuel.
