Usage
Fuel
Using a minecart with furnace while holding coal or charcoal uses one up and adds fuel. Each piece lasts 4 minutes of running on average.
Using it, with or without coal, points it away from the player. It drives itself that way while it has fuel.
Fuel for more than 27 pieces of coal is lost when the minecart is saved. The total turns negative, and the minecart does not run until enough coal brings it back above zero.
Behaviour
A minecart with furnace is placed, and moves, as a minecart does, but drives itself while it has fuel. It cannot be ridden, and picks up no mobs.
Under its own power it reaches 3.3 blocks per second on flat track. Without fuel, it loses 13.6% of its speed every tick, against a minecart's 4%.
It pushes a minecart in front of it wherever two minecarts push each other. On a north–south track away from the rails at x = −2 to 1, it stops behind the minecart instead.
When it breaks, it drops a minecart and a furnace.
