Default Alcohol in today's Fuels???

Hi

Anyone comment on the alcohol in today's fuels? It seems there are very much
fewer stations around supplying fuel without the alcohol.

Is this alcohol causing problems with any components in the system? Eating
the neoprene or rubbers? How about the fitch injectors on the evinrudes. The
manual specifically states not to use the alcohol in the fuel but I cannot
find where to buy the fuel without alcohol. Some locals are talking about a
blue enzyme to put in. Some are taling about lead additives. Anyone have any
comments? Should I be worried?

Still running some gunk through the 9.9, thanks for all the advice and tips.
No real improvements yet so might have to take off the carb as Wilbur has
suggested. Thanks again all for any great advice.
