We should be trying to rid ourselves of the crap. Hopefully we will be able to join with NH in going back to real gasoline.

New Hampshire still sells gasoline with ethanol.

I don’t know if their house bill passed the senate, but even if it does, it won’t take affect until two other states pass a similar bill.

I’m not a fan of this government mandate crap, but to some extent you have it wrong... small amounts of ethanol in moderation help keep intake and exhaust valves clean, and in carbureted engines allow you to run advanced timing with less risk of detonation. the numbers they’re talking about scare me though, and still a no go for small engines like mowers...
