More French drivers are purchasing ethanol conversion kits to allow their cars to run on higher ethanol blends to take advantage of the ethanol and gas price differential. FlexFuel Energy Development reported it had sold 6,400 kits in the first 22 days of March, compared to 3,468 in February and 2,166 in January. Other companies are also reporting similar sales.
