Tony, Alcohol has about 1/2 the energy in it per pound than gasoline does. It runs very cool and is very resistant to deteonation but fuel comsuption is doubled. You have to have alcohol specific jetting, you can't just switch between gas and alcohol.

Tony; a lot of people who want to show off put about a quart of alcohol into the saw operator! Has made for some interesting demonstrations. I cant help you much with directions as my experience with the stuff is about 20 years old. I am not sure if this is the information you were looking for, but I try to be of help whenever I can.

If you wanna get the sw running on alcohol, I recommend just settin a beer next to it and tell the saw heres one for the road, get to work! I usually get the saw to take it before it gets bored and falls asleep.
