When are they going to start distributing this stuff? It looks like our trucks won't like it much without some modifications. Hope they still keep some 10% at the pumps as well.

 

hmmm.....im not liking this

 

NO ONEs engine will like it much.

 

There's still a few places you can get pure gas too which is the best. They are getting fewer and fewer though. The ones I used to go to in my area are now 10%. Here's a website that lets you see if any are in your area.

Looks like none in West Michigan. However, I never see the "Contains up to 10% Ethanol" stickers on any of our pumps.

 

For some reason, they do not need to put a sticker on the pump(in NH anyway). I have been going to my local Mobil instead of the no name cheaper places for a long time. The other day, I asked the owner (out of curiosity) if it's 10%, and she said yes. LOL I know her pretty good and joked as to why I have been paying extra to buy her gas all these years. She had no answer. I'll still buy the beer(cheaper) but I might as well get the shat gas elsewhere for cheaper. And throw a bottle of Techron+ in it every couple weeks.

 

hmmm. interesting. if they keep increasing the amount of ethanol in gas i might have to stick that 850CFM carb back on my truck

 

I wish I could get ethanol free gas where I live.

 

They are trying to get people to buy newer cars that are flex fuel cars. It doesn;t matter WHAT percentage of gas it is, you can run on anything up to E85. Every car in brazil can run on up to 100% alcohol. However, they have boatloads of sugarcane to support a nation on ethanol. We are using FOOD for fuel.

 

Actually, its animal feed. (field corn.) notice that with the advent of 'biofuel" subsidies, the price of meat went up? Direct relationship there..... The cattle barons are now competing with the alcoholics for corn to make their products.
