Proper combustion is only part of the problem. Ethanol damages - softens, partially dissolves - gaskets, hoses, and other parts that are not specifically impervious to it.
But...but...but The govmnt says it’s good for you!
Think it’s bad on cars, you should see the damage to small engines. We sell/service Stihl and Toro equip. That crap is EATING the innards of the machines.
Don’t even get me started on what it’s doing to outboards.
That's only the start of the problem. Think of all the chainsaws, hedge trimmers, weedeaters, boats, atvs, generators, welders, air compressors etc that are designed to run on gasoline.
You can use Stabil in your gasoline to help with these types of equipment when they have to sit idle for the winter, but I can tell you from experience that it is very expensive to get the fuel system on an outboard engine cleaned after this stuff gunks it up.
Find real gas if you can.
Anyone know if that water jar and electrolysis thing works for getting better gas mileage? I think gas prices by summer will be $3.50 a gallon though we will probably all be broke by then.
