Benefits of switching from ethanol
#51
The 2 cycle boat motor doesn't start as well on ethanol gas in the fall, but it starts great on a zero morning in my truck. I don't need near as much isopropnyl ice drier. It has always seemed to me to perform better in the 5% range ie mixed with unleaded for the best mileage return. Like alternate every other 1/2 tank. Alcohol starts very good when it is very cold/-10 degrees, vaporizes better. Never get gas line freeze. As for emisions, when it is 90 + degrees and the breeze dies down, the haze seems to get worse every summer. I blame China and India for it. Fu__ China, Fu__ India. Were doomed. DA's.
