The oil company has promised 31 E85 outlets in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Canberra by October 1, with expansion to 100 metropolitan and regional locations by mid 2011.

No word on Perth yet!!

Oswal group [aka Burrup fertilisers] had poured a massive funding effort via Grainol to setup an ethanol plant in Rockingham. Had merit until late last year when they pulled the plug. Intention was for branded Westpetro ethanol of various grades to be made available locally and for export.

Turned to shit, so now Wait Awhile earns its name yet again.

"Bio-fuel cannot be sold in WA because it fails State requirements under the Reid vapour pressure test which measures the volatility of petroleum products.

Heather Brodie, chief executive of the Bio-Fuels Association of Australia, said other State Governments had adjusted their regulations to allow the sale of the greener fuel.
A spokesman for WA Environment Minister Donna Faragher said she was considering advice from the Department of Environment and Conservation, but would not disclose whether that advice was to allow the sale of ethanol in WA"

Donna is a ranga but a few here would have a crack I reckon. Suggest we all send her email supporting E85

Honourable Donna Faragher MEd(Hons) BA(Hons) GradDipEd JP MLC

Minister for Environment; Youth

Diesel won't catch fire from a naked flame and the flash point for bio diesel is over 130 degrees celcius so it's not as dangerous as diesel which flash's over 60 degrees celcius.

Unless mixed with Ammonium Nitrate to make ANFO.

Then it just gets old fashioned fun.
