Obamas EPA has ruled that refiners can be forced to produce 15%
ethanol fuel. Of course, this will destroy many existing engines,
Just try to find ethanol free fuel. Even at marinas it is not often
available. Not only will this destroy engines, it will kill people
whose boat fuel systems leak due to the ethanol, another case of WTF
for Obama.


Oh, puh-lease.

He's just whacked out because Obama is black.



I never had any fuel-related problems with my Merc or Yamaha engines.
Frogwatch does not maintain his boats properly, so one can imagine how
poorly he maintains his outboard. He also apparently has no external
fuel filter on his boat, and probably doesn't change the little one
inside his outboard.


There are lots of people who do have problems. I think it is because
they don't use the gas fast enough and they don't have a good water
separator/filter. There is always a conversation going on over at
pontoon boats about that. Those boys do have a lot of trailer queens
that don't seem to get used much.



A good external fuel filter is not expensive.
