Ethanol is a solvent. Gasoline and diesel fuels have lubrocity by their physical properties. Adding a solvent to gasoline is the dumbest thing possible to do to the life of an engine.

As for burning your food and growing high fertilizer, irrigation, cross continent transported, momentary shelf life, refrigeration needed crops in order to feel eco-smart is even dumber than adding solvents to engine fuels.

Eat local, in season, return to home canning, raise your own chickens for eggs (which eat your garbage), raise a steer and a hog to be butchered every November.

You’re telling me to go back to living the way I was raised. Full circle in seventy one years.
