It kills two-cycle motors.

My lawnmower mechanic told me to ONLY use hi test gas mixed with oil for my snowblower and store for no more than thirty days!!!. The ethanol attracts moisture and loses octane very quickly. Ethanol ruins the motors, landscapers are already raising Cain about this. Service mechanics are seeing rampant repair issues with two cycle motors due to ethanol use.

But our wonderful EPA and administration would rather burn our food to make a point. They, GM and GE can keep their ethanol, toxic light bulbs and their electric cars. Give me the good old Sunoco 260! A can of that gas would easily last two years.

I do repairs on my personal lawn equipment. We have a parts house for small engine equipment and the guys there say they have never seen the amount of fuel system sales as they have the past two or three years. My JETSKI also died from the ethanol fuel.
