Gasoline/diesel fueling stations to replenish the liquid fuel for these engines are readily available. Some examples are the use of fiberglass, carbon fiber and Kevlar substituting for wood and metal in vehicle parts, appliances and furniture products. The convenience and low cost of this concept alone merit attention.
