I wonder if they did a study on the effects this fuel has on the life of ship and aircraft engines? We know the garbage we use in cars in some parts of the country affect their engines.

I wonder how long it will take for stories to start appearing about these ships suddenly needing emergency engine overhauls?

Actually, I do know that alcohol burns much cleaner in engines and was what Henry Ford had originally designed his cars to use. Petroleum is good, but definitely a lower tech and quality fuel.

That’s probably one of the things the fleet is collecting data for.
