I'm scratching my head too as the Ethanol I ran in my cars was right out of the tanks from a friend of mine - who ran an Ethanol plant from his farm. If I'm not mistaken he said it was 95%E to 5%G.

I never had a problem running for over a year in my Ford F150.

There is a pretty large lobby out there built to crush Ethanol useage. Who knows....

LOL. You've got it backwards. There's a huge lobby of corporate welfare recipients (i.e. corn growers and ethanol distillers) pushing ethanol. There is no major industry group against it, nor is there any major lobbying organization. The only people trying to crush it are smart consumers who are fed up with the higher costs and lower mileage ethanol is causing in their cars. Oh yeah, and there are a couple intrepid scientists who are funding their anti-ethanol research out of their own pockets.

The oil companies are not fighting it. Neither are the car companies. Both groups are trying to cash in on some of the subsidies that are being made available.
