Avoid this like the plague... it ruins all sorts of gaskets and hoses and plastic parts.
I’ve noticed several gas stations in our area popping up, marketing themselves as selling “Real Gas”, Ethanol free. There’s almost always a line of cars at those places with people waiting to get some.
“Good grief, we all know this wont work. It will destroy your car engine. Is this what they want?”
“They” had no problem at all destroying lots of car engines, wasting the energy and human labor that went into building them, the economic health of those who can’t buy the cars those engines were in anymore, and jobs for mechanics and those in the auto parts recycling industry during Cash for Clunkers. Destroying jobs and the economic health of people is, in fact, what “They” do best.
The 15% ethanol isn’t really that bad, it’s the percentage of water that it attracts-which is basically unavoidable if it is transported or stored. As I recall, there was a time not too long ago when people got sued by the state or even went to jail for selling watered-down gas. Now, it’s the law.
More agenda driven junk science to support this boondoggle.
Pray for America
The marinas in WV sell ethanol free gas.
Pure-gas.org has a list of stations in the US and Canada that sell ethanol-free gasoline - have used it in the past and seems to be kept up-to-date. One could always call the station to verify.
I feel bad for kids today.
They cant get a cheap car because of cash for clunkers.
If the could they couldn’t afford gas ,even if they could get an entry level job.
And then Obama wants to force them to pay for healthcare premiums when they are 23 and healthy, further diminishing their dollar.
Did I mention the inflation?
I hope they rise up on Obamas narrah ass in Nov
Fixed income folks are being brutalized too.
Add to the list of nonsense to overturn next January 20th.
E10 wrecks those engines now. I know my car is not designed or approved to run E15.
Geez! I wonder what this will do to my 2002 Honda S2000 sports car???
Not at Stonewall Jackson or Burnsville.
Plenty of pure gas at home in Idaho. None to be found in San Diego where I’m working and riding my bike.

I don't think "stupid" is planning on being voted out. In the words of his hero,Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili, loosely translated:
"You know, comrades,that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this who will count the votes, and how.
Count on it. With embellishments, such as riots in the inner cities, and pre election prep, like challenging the authority of the Supreme Court to rule a law unconstitutional.
I used to get 64c a Gallon “leaded” pure gas in SD back in the mid 80’s
There’s a list on the internet of stations that sell gas with no ethanol for the entire state of Texas. Problem is the nearest one is about 3 hours drive from us. My car will not run on anything more than E10. This is really bad news.
The cash for clunkheads had people trading in $10,000 used vehicles for a $3,000 rebate so the vehicle could be destroyed and taken off the market, forcing people to buy new vehicles.
With E15 they just destroy the engines outright, forcing people to buy new vehicles.
Ah...come on, guys. Boehner and McConnell have our backs on this.
Cha Chingo!
