I agree.

Only ONE candidate proposed to do that during the Republican primaries.

THey’ll sooner (no pun intended) force everyone to own a flex-fuel vehicle.

Don’t doubt me on this, it’s coming...if Hillary wins.

Trying to stretch your fuel supply with ethanol, is like trying to stretch your ground beef supply with filet mignon...............

Gas with 10% ethanol can ruin lawnmower engines.

Thankfully, one of our large local retailers carries ethanol-free fuel.

It’s all I use.

The old sets of wheels gets the corn free.

I’ve ran it in the 16 Tacoma and saw no real difference.

Neither of my cars seem to mind it, but the fuel injectors seem to need cleaning a little more often. But, lawnmowers don’t do well with it at all.

What I do know is you better not let stale 10% ethanol gas stay in your lawnmower tank over winter or you will have to get the carburetor cleaned out in the spring. One of my lessons learned the hard way.

Ted Cruz proposed eliminating the ethanol mandate.

Donald Trump did not.

Facts. They’re pesky little things ...

Sell the customer non-ethanol fuel.

Give them a jug of ethanol measuring 10% of their purchase.

This will solve some of the problems.

My Datsun Pick-up had a fuel tank drain plug.

Cost me 5 minutes to drain my tank.
