    Wood Stove for fireplace?

    i will just sweep the chimney every year. it was kind of nasty this year but by no means a 1x1 hole. i can run the damper closed and door open with no smoke in the house. i wouldnt even begin to know how to hook a liner up. the insert fills the entire fireplace.

    Fuel type?

    i dont know about 2 strokes or stock saws but i race "stock" type class 4x4 trucks. alot of guys think there is a hp gain in using race fuel in a stock motor, but it will really hurt a lower compression motor. (burns to slow) they think race fuel is like some kind of rocket fuel i guess...
