I haven't seen that around here, although I've not checked any marinas. The 10% is giving me no

I doubt if it will John. 10% ethanol isn't going to mess up anything. But going over that might. E-85 is a mess on rubber hoses and fuel related gaskets. Plus, the idea of getting a carbureted engine to run in it is a feat in itself..,


That's my worry. So far I've not seen any of that around here either.


My only experience with it was in the Dakotas and I was convinced it
was a bad idea right away. The MPG indicator in the computer made it
very obvious.
