WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT E-10 ETHANOL FUEL
AND WINTER BOAT LAYUP

This spring and with little prior notice, recreational boaters in most
parts of the country were introduced to gasoline containing higher
concentrations of ethanol, a corn-based additive that replaced a known
carcinogen, MTBE. The new fuel, dubbed "E-10" for its 10% ethanol
content, unfortunately has the ability to attract greater amounts of
water and "phase separate," or form two separate solutions in the gas
tank, usually over a long period of time. Once this happens, the engine
won't run and internal damage could occur.


Gotta love those diesels!
