Yes, well, we have lots of cars with fuel heaters, both diesel and gasoline powered, driving about all winter, and they're not blowing up all over the place, even with a big tank of flammable liquid and additionally an ICE engine right next to the burner adding more excitement to the mix. So, I'm not really worried about anything blowing up as such. Admittedly Chinese knock-offs are a minorityI also admit that diesel is safer and if I were to buy a brand new burner I'd probably get a diesel, unless I'd like to burn ethanol. Obviously a diesel burner will not work with it, but I have a German Webasto gasoline heater already. I'll try and see if it'll run on 85% bioethanol and if not, I'll go back to the usual stuff. I'd just really like to give as little of my money to Big Oil as I can.Regarding the fuel prices, it's not luck as such. Your government has decided not to tax petroleum products as heavily as governments here have. If they did, you'd quickly catch up with the rest of the world in mpg average. Also it's makes a huge difference that US convinced OPEC to trade oil in USD back in the day.
