Ethenol has not lived up to the expectations and the promises that were given about the nature of the product. For instance my dad had a ethenol rated avalanche and that truck made sh!t for power and torque. The truck also made nominal fuel mileage gains and overall was a pain in the butt!!! Now we traded in that avalanche for one that was the regular engine and found that it made more than 35+hp than the last and was only about 1-2 real mpg less than the ethenol on a bad day. Ethenol to me was a ploy by lobbyist toake money for a certain group of grain farmers and investors. Ethenol = over hyped fuel additive like so many other products.
Trust me she probably got bad gas! I had that happened in my s2000 from quicktrip when they switched to their winter seasonal blend which so happened to have WATER in the fuel!!!! I thought I blew a headgasket!!!! Nothing like driving sown the road and then wam no throttle response and white smoke coming out of the exhaust! I was freaked as I just put in my emanage ultimate with a new aggressive race tune... I literally shat bricks!
