My just as crediable $18,000 Air-Powered Car

 
First major componet:

www.rhoadescar.com/jumpspec.htm

  Add a couple Alluminum 80s (SCUBA tanks)
couple them through a manafold and valve to an
air motor ( a die grinder perhaps, maybe a geared
down sander or cutoff tool)

  There you go; Eco friendly and worthy of taxpayer $$.

  Now all I need is some slick marketing and a few of
the more gulliable; to push the goverment to give me the
money.

  Hey, maybe I can get a Hydrogen powered house?

  Luck;
      Ken

Since you can spell neither aluminum (aluminium) nor manifold correctly,
I think we can count your ideas out.

  You can count my spell checker out, on this 64 bit system,
but if you judge ideas by their presentation then you have
a very shallow view of the world.  But then it has become
obvious that you only read these posts to find fault, in a vain
attempt to convince yourself of the value of your own posts.
The loss of your opinion will not depress me one wit.

It was a stupid idea even before that.

How much energy is stored in a scuba tank ?

Given an 80 cu ft, 3000 psi tank, and assuming compressed air has 34
WH/kg (xytronics site), 6lbs of air in tank (deep-six.com) weighs
about 3kg, so that's about 100WH per tank. (Even 10 tanks wouldnt get
you very far)
