Ray wroteWhat do you think the effect of ethanol on 2-cycle motors,
using synthetic oils, will be? (See E-tec).
In our area we ONLY have 10% ethanol /90% gas available ('Course
Michigan's only ethanol plant is located about 1/2 mile away.)
In my 15 hp motor I've only run 10% ethanol (whiskey gas) since I've
owned it. I didn't know it wasn't running right, I guess.

=================================
I've wondered about this, too. From what I"ve heard/read, the main
problem with ethanol/gas is that alkahol tends to permeate neoprene
lines and fittings. There was an article in the Freep last week about
this and gave a list of vehicles that are set up to use E85 (85%
ethanol/15% gas) The 2006 Ford Taurus is the only one that comes to
mind because I'm thinking of getting one.
