That's a recent article based on old data.
While it doesn't have exactly the same shelf life has non-ethanol gas,
it hasn't produced the storage problems in a majority of situation
that were forecast.
Now, in areas where there are cold temperature extremes in the winter,
yeah - it's very possible that you will get phase seperation in
ethanol blends *due to significant warming and cooling cycles. It seem
to be a particular problem in the border states with Canada.
Then again, I havne't heard a lot of horror stories out of Canada
about it.
They don't sell it in this province...I don't know about out west.- Hide quoted text -
