Turning food into fuel when there is plenty of fuel to be had, is stupid.

The US is thinking of allowing 15% ethanol instead of 10%. Another stupid move. The damage done by ethanol to boats and motorcycles is well klnown and yet they want even more ethanol. Crazy

I see the words Flex fuel written on the back of some vehicles, Flex fuel should mean it will burn gas , kerosene or diesel, but no, it merely means that the vehicle will burn ethanol with a minimum of damage to that vehicle.

The only place I can get pure gas for my outboard is at a few marina docks that are allowed to sell it. The ethanol messes up my little outboard carb.
