Top 3 Reasons Why Alternative Fuels Work For You
Fuel cost are rising at record highs around the world. Scientist and entrepreneurs are searching for solutions that will ease the pain at the gas pump. Alternative fuels are the answer, with options for the masses.
1. Fuel cost
Fuel Cost are higher than ever, the world is now searching for alternative solutions to the high demand and high price of petroleum based fuel.
2. Making Biodiesel at Home
People have looked at making biodiesel at home as an extreme alternative to commercially available fuel. This is no longer the case, as fuel prices have skyrocketed making Biodiesel at home is now much easier with the available kits that can be purchased. Residential Biodiesel kits and entry-level commercial production systems are now widely available. Companies like www.70centsagallon.com offers a variety of options to meet the budget and needs of everyone. The use of these systems ranges from the Cummins diesel engine owner to commercial fleet and maintenance managers. They all are looking for a safe, easy and effective solution to relieve the cost of high diesel fuel.
3. Trucks
Any truck with a diesel engine can use Biodiesel safely and economically with Biodiesel that is made on-site by its owner operator. No matter if you have a Ford, Dodge, Chevy or foreign diesel truck, they all can benefit from the use of Biodiesel. Truck owners cannot tell the difference in performance and state their vehicles have more power and run better with less noise. Commercial truck owners are now converts to the benefits of Biodiesel as seen at www.biotrucker.com.
Alternative fuels offer multiple solutions to serve the needs of the world. Necessity has forced new innovations around the world, to include using garbage, H20, used cooking oil and algae for new fuel sources. This generation will make a difference in the next few years with new technologies that will help mother earth be a greener planet for us all.

The gas tank size of a school bus & fuel cost?

"What is the gas tank size of a 44 passenger school bus have?"


INTERNATIONAL 3400 CHASSIS WEIGHTS WITH ALTERNATE Fuel Tanks

The regular size of a school bus gas tank is 35gallons and can be fitted wih 100 gallon tanks also:

Base Weight 35 Gallons RSM 65 Gallons RSM 40 Gallons BTR * 100 Gallons BTR

These buses use allot of gas and put out allot of bad emissions that our
children have to breathe.
The cost of fuel is a huge concern now to our city operators causing some to
reduce service and even suspend service during certain days of the week because
of the fuel cost. Petroleum diesel at $4.60 a gallon will cost the city $161.00 dollars
just to fill up one bus. Multiply this cost times a Dallas County Schools fleet
One of the 10 largest transportations fleets (1200+ buses) in the nation that skyrockets to
$192.000. The real question is how much gas mileage are these buses getting and how much bad emissions are they putting in our environment. Can our nations school bus fleet increase mileage and decrease emissions?
