What A Gas!
It burns in your tank, but not on a flame.
Ever wished someone would come up with an insurance policy
against running out of gas ... maybe a nonflammable fuel
alternative? That's just what Mark B. Gordon and Richard W.
Jones have done, marketing the first patented, nonflammable fuel
alternative, appropriately named Spare Tank. Based in Baltimore,
Emergency Fuel LLC purchased the exclusive worldwide rights to
Spare Tank in September 1998. Spare Tank is a unique blend of environmentally safe, organic
and synthetic compounds that meet all the qualifications of the
Department of Transportation and the National Fire Prevention
Agency. "If you take a match and put it over our product [or]
drop it in the fluid, nothing will happen-actually, the match will
go out," Jones explains. "It would have to be well over
450 degrees before it would even think about
self-combusting." Gordon, 53, and Jones, 56, commissioned Harvard MBA engineer
William Hubbard to create the product's unique formula. Spare
Tank has already found shelf space in Baltimore regional stores and
in Kmarts nationwide. Content Continues Below
Recently, the partners announced their newest product, a
nonflammable, self-sufficient emergency kit. It contains a quart of
Spare Tank, a nonflammable tire inflator, a battery start-up
product and a glow stick. "You may only use the product once a
year or once every two years," says Jones, "but every
time that fuel light comes on, that worry goes away."
