I go out of my way to buy ethanol-free gas to use in my small engines.

Not available in the Houston area.

We are required to Reformulated gasoline by the EPA.

You can buy barrels of racing fuel, or lawnmower fuel by the pint at greatly higher prices, but not ethanol free gasoline at a pump.

I have a 99 toyota and it runs better on straight gas. I am glad they got rid of MTBE. It made my car stall out.

You have to, if you want your small engines to last. Do you know that a lot of them will void your warranty if the ethanol content goes up to 15%?

HOWEVER, if car manufacturers would boost compression, and use something that the ethanol would not attack in seals and hoses and such, ethanol might be good for us.
