[Healeys] Dieseling problem

[Dan Stromquist]

My son pointed out to me the other day that the bottled water (which is
sometimes tap water) is more than 2 times the price of gas per oz.

Rest assured that when an engine is invented that runs on tap water, that
too will skyrocket in price.

Thanks to the eleven listers who came up with answers and/or suggestions
to my problem with a dieseling engine. Generally speaking the low octane
fuel seems to be the culprit. Unfortunately one can only buy two grades
in this country: the 'normal' grade which is 95 octane and the 'super'
grade which is 98 octane.
Also very unfortunate is the fact that I have to pay seven dollars
ninety three (Yes: $ 7.93!)  for every US Gallon of this 98 octane fuel.
And if you would know what the restoration of my BJ8 did cost.....
Why has no-one invented a car engine running on tap water yet?
