The EPA, Janet McCabe and 0bama try to make this scam out as a big success when in fact it's costing taxpayers billions.

I’m trying to clean a carburetor that is encrusted with ethanol induced corrosion. Once you see what ethanol can do, you will know how insane the ethanol standards are.

If it ain’t workin’.....

... double down!

[Uncle Miltie]

Wait! Ted Cruz said “Ethanol Bad!”

So, how is it you can support him on that?

Ethanol is a disaster for boar owners. Thankfully there are a smattering of ethanol-free gas suppliers where I live.

Ethanol is a huge scam. It is bad for older automobile engines and components. It is a way to get rid of older vehicles in the fleet. This is one of the primary reasons the government continues to push it. They want older vehicles to be replaced by newer more efficient vehicles.

[jazusamo]

I hear you...It’s deadly on small engines too.

[hugorand]

Haven’t most environmentalists admitted that studies show that ethanol produces more C02 emissions than gasoline?

boar = boat. Damn dark keyboard.

Ethanol will ruin a car’s engine. At 5% the damage is minimal. Once you get higher than that your car’s engine is in danger.

Go to a Uniform National Primary on a single day in the Spring. Politicians would no longer have to step and fetch and trip all over themselves trying to suck up to Iowans.

Then amazingly....{poof}.......no ethanol subsidies.

Ethanol corrodes fuel systems, lowers gas mileage and adds to pollution. What’s not to like? GET RID OF THIS AGENCY OF FOOLS!!

That carburetor deserves all the corrosion it get - 'cause carburetors are evil Gaia killing devices. [/sarcasm]

Nothing says Failure as clearly as a government mandate.
If it was a good idea, the market would do it without coercion.

Exactly and that’s the big story. There are many many more small engines vs cars/trucks. Small engines will cost huge amt to replace.

[CGASMIA68]

All Small engine owners/opreators/homeowners/landscapers/marine, and on and on need to band together and stop this crap.

I don’t know how to organize this type thing on a grand worthwhile scale or I would.

I know that Trump came out for an increase to 15% ethanol mandate. Can’t be all bad.
