The fuel in an engine has to be vaporized before it will burn. Insufficient vaporization is a known problem with alcohol fuels during cold starts in cold weather. As the heat of vaporization of butanol is less than half of that of ethanol, an engine running on butanol should be easier to start in cold weather than one running on ethanol or ...
The 3-carbon alcohol, propanol (C 3 H 7 OH), is not often used as a direct fuel source for petrol engines (unlike ethanol, methanol and butanol), with most being directed into use as a solvent. However, it is used as a source of hydrogen in some types of fuel cell; it can generate a higher voltage than methanol, which is the fuel of choice for ...
Butanol is an alcohol which can be used as a fuel in most gasoline internal combustion engines without engine modification. It is typically a product of the fermentation of biomass by the bacterium Clostridium acetobutylicum (also known as the Weizmann organism).

The JH4 was an F-head engine based on the Willys Hurricane engine and its predecessor Willys Go-Devil sidevalve four, and was used to power early Mitsubishi Jeeps as well as Mitsubishi Fuso trucks and buses. It was of 2.2 L (2,199 cc), had 69 HP and formed the basis for the KE31, a diesel engine of the same dimensions.
Isuzu developed the first Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) engine series with low-emissions truck mounted with a clean CNG engine emitting zero black smoke. The 4HF1-CNG is a CNG engine of 4.334 L capacity (as based on direct injection diesel engine) with non-contact ignition system. Peak torque is 323 Nm, peak power is 120 PS (88 kW) at 1,500 rpm.
In North America, diesel engines are primarily used in large trucks, where the low-stress, high-efficiency cycle leads to much longer engine life and lower operational costs. These advantages also make the diesel engine ideal for use in the heavy-haul railroad and earthmoving environments.
The Isuzu 6H is a family of inline six-cylinder diesel engines installed in Isuzu medium-duty trucks, and also installed in GM medium-duty trucks as the Duramax LG4. It is mated to the Allison 2500, 3000, and 3500 series transmissions.
