Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

where an Irish senator and a German inventor have come together to produce an engine which runs on vegetable oil.

Senator Charlie MacDonald of Co Laois has taken the Republic's Minister of Finance Albert Reynolds for a gentle test drive at 145km.lh (90mph) in a Mercedes powered by Crisp 'n' Dry from a local cash 'n' carry.

The car is reported to have run beautifully, but left a distinct smell of chips.

The inventor Ludwig Elsbett has chosen a site at Tullamore, Co Offaly to produce the veggimotor and is looking for .£4m in government aid.

The project expects to create 500 jobs by 1994. Vegetable oil emits no noxious substances.
