whats wrong with the ethanol mix? There has been plenty of testing done on it. and at those levels of ethanol (10%) all it does is minorly bring down the price of your gas, improve SLIGHTLY the octane rating, and make your combustion run a little cooler. Really cannot hurt at all. if we stay in the 10-15% range. Now, run anything higher than 60% and all sorts of crap happens. Fuel lines need to be changed, same as the gas tank floater, injectors should be bored out a little, etc..etc.. Not to mention that you run less BTU's per volume of fuel. so as long as its low, I am all for it, bring my gas price down, run my engine slightly cooler its all gravy.
