of course gas but if cant get that any flex fuel additive sold at auto stores. (or can order by gallon for you) with common ratio of 1 pint additive to 5-10 gals coco or other subsitute. theyll know which is best. also if use gas youd want 1 gal per10 gals of your substitute fuel.

We've always used olive oil for that purpose to make a softer candle.\n\nChemically, paraffin is molecularily large alkanes.  The length of the alkane determines its degree fluidity (more accurately, its melting point).  Mineral oil is a purified alkane product that is liquid at room temperature, so it would be most compatible chemically with paraffin and would easily soften it.\n\nMy concern with some of the things that could be added is that it is uncertain what happens to them in the flame.  What sort of toxic substance do they become when burned?

Anybody can make biodiesel. It's easy, you can make it in your kitchen -- and it's BETTER than the petro-diesel fuel the big oil companies sell...\njourneytoforever.org/biodiesel_make.html

Pine cones will create some nice colours in the flames.\n\nYou can treat dry pine cones to produce various colours of flames.  Most of these ingredients can be found in the laundrey section of your grocery store or farm supply stores.\n\nBorax = yellow/green\ncopper sulfate = green/blue\ncalcium sulfate ( epson salts ) = white\nCalcium cloride ( pure only , a bleaching compound ) = blue\n3 parts potassium sulfate/ 1 part potassium nitrate = violet\npotasium  cloride = purple\n\nChoose one colour...do not mix colours\nDisolve as much of the colour as possible in a bucket as you can.  ( typically 1/2 pound of colourant to a gallon of water.)\nMix well\nToss in clean dry pinecones and soak overnight.\nRemove and spread on newspaper for at least 72 hours to dry.\n\nToss in your fire and enjoy the colours.\n\nYou can also achieve the same results by dipping pinecones in parrafin wax and sprinkling with the powdered colourants while the wax is still wet.

You can go to the store and pick up regular table salt.  The sodium in the salt will produce  really cool looking red flame.  Also, calcium containing salts can produce a deep orange/red flame.  You can try tums.  Try grinding it up into a powder form.  Tums usually contains magnesium. I doubt that any salt will burst you into flames!

I'd just buy solid rocket fuel at hobby store. Blackpowder is just going to explode and really not burn.

there are different ways to do the mixture, all depends how hard do you ride, the easiest way is, mix 12 onz. of oil into 5 galls. of 91 0r 92 octane of gasoline, that should be good for easy or kind of hard riding

Easy - get something flammable (i.e.paper...or if in the wild, coconut husks torn into strips). Have some larger twigs available. Use the magnifying glass to catch the sun's rays, concentrate the rays into a small bright spotand over the tinder. When it lights, put the larger twigs on it and fan like hell....once it takes off, put in larger and larger pieces of wood till you get a roaring flame.

put wax in a bottle cap. burn the button until wax melts. wax will start setting on fire after awhile. Use a drop of water on it. Explain reaction.\n\nwater causes combustion
