I'm sure looking at it, if only because so many think it's not
possible. But there is no cheap solution-there are cheap engines, but
the sump is in the wrong place, and no Jeep transmission fits all that
well. And no one will build a kit, which would make it work.

The OX2 is a concept engine. It is not inherently multifuel in
practice: a given engine will burn a given fuel.

The big difference is going to be, spark vs. compression ignition. The
spark engines will burn whatever spark ignition fuels it's set up for,
just like any common car engine can burn propane, CNG, alcohols, or
gasoline depending on carburetion or injection. You have to have a
separate fuel system for liquids and gases.

The compression igniition engines will burn diesel fuels, #1,#2,
suitable coal and veg oils, JP5, K-1 kerosene, et al.

Same as a regular piston engine.

The Jeep WG's are available with diesel engines so all the bits and pieces
must be available.
