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.
It is true that most manufacturers limit ethanol to 10% if you like
your warranty.
The Saturn had first one injector, then another, then they replaced the
last two and yanked the fuel tank and entire system. They didn't offer a
reason at the time but later a mechanic said it was ethanol, which was
just getting into wide use at the time.
They were getting ready to replace the injectors etc for a second time
when it was replaced.
Some Snot nose know it all's that tout the ethanol industry line
really are funny.
No, no. Harry says that ethanol is fine, so it's fine. End of story.
