This paper provides a brief overview of Chrysler Corporation' efforts in the development of a flexible fuel vehicle (FFV) and how such a vehicle (cars and light trucks) will affect the equipment mechanic. An FFV is a car or truck designed to operate equally well on gasoline or M85, 85% methanol and 15% gasoline, or any mixture of gasoline and M85. FFVs will look and operate just like conventional vehicles but will be more challenging to build and to service. The fuel will require some special care in handling.
