Default More ethanol problems

I really don't understand the deal with E10. Postulate, postulate. I
have no problems with leaving E10 in the boat tank over the winter, no
Stabil. Engine runs fine next year. Same with my generator and log
splitter. Perhaps it is SOME formulations or additive packages that
promote phase separation more/less than others. I use 76 almost
exclusively (station is handy). I fill the boat this year with multiple
5 gal trips to the station; didn't use dock fuel. Unless I'm going to
the San Juans, I usually fill the boat on the trailer at a land station,
coming and going.

Precisely. I had 60 gallons of "ethanoled" gasoline in Yo Ho over the
winter along with Sta-Bil. Engine started right up this season, first
try and no problems. The fuel filters get changed at the end of each
season.
