And YES, its on the way.Think your O/B has problems with this mix, wait till your truck starts drinking E-15/20 in the not so distant future.......cat converters aint cheap.. I haven't kept up with this. Are there any engine manufacturers addressing this issue? Are there motors that do well with this stuff?

Im not sure because i wasnt around but was there similar problems when switching from leaded gas to unleaded. I took pics pf the crane and the ugly water tower from my porch just dpnt know how tp resize them to post
oh yeah that ugly water tower is in Keyport
I actually think water towers are cool!
First Not That tower its the old one at the abandoned plant all rusty and soon to till and fall killing 10000s of green Head flys Now the fuel thing since I worked at Linden Assembly Plant. 35 years and did construction work in Esso when they Blow up dam did I make money on the clock almost 24-7 then. And I was around with the switch from leaded to Unleaded . It was no big deal. Engines were Carbs. and the vales Pinged and a lower compression. And they sold and still do a lead additive. Amoco always sold unleaded The White Gas. and it sold with no problems people bragged that their car ran better and CLEANER. All outboards most only white gas and small engines at the time recommended white gas ( Unleaded ) But Now the corn gas I will call it, Got a big push from the Farmers. And Lobbyist. since many over seas markets for corn demanded lower prices, Remember how farmers were paid not to Grow Wheat and, Corn, Then there is winter blend in NJ Does this corn gas hurt or do harm It has to be 20 years more or less Pennsylvania had corn gas dam near 50% I was pulling a travel trailer at the time and thought what the heck. I filled up before leaving Lancaster PA. My 8 cly ford had no power ran Like S**t could not make the hills on the PA turnpike. The first service area I had the Tank Drained and filled up with Reg gas. Will it hurt the cars of today most likely. That's what that little emblem on the rear of some cars say FLEX FUEL. Does yours I have a 8 Cly 2012 Chevy Equinox. use REG. Gas with great Mileage, Don't mess with it Another Fact On Gasoline its BS to use High test, unless your driving a very high compression engine, which there are far and few, The notion of I put a tank of high test now and then to Clean the engine . then where does your gas come from think its that brand on the sign again . Take the Bay Way Refinery or any others. that sell market gas, They have a filling station its called a rack at Bay Way its right at the exit of the refinery RT 9 North. you will see any Number of tankers lined up mostly at night less traffic for them their not trying to hide anything They fill up at any one of the many fuel line drops with the designated test of gas and blends they used to put dyes for ID. You will notice that not many if any tankers have a brand name on them Ever wonder why there is some very cheap prices around including Costco They Spot Buy no Contract as a brand name station has, and they Pay cash on delivery but so do some other independents, Hess might be the only one that its their gas from there refinery and their trucks. That all started with one Guy a Home heating oil truck . Armada Hess. so corn gas is it here to stay The car manufactures have a say but not that much anymore, Once you take a hand out you have little to say,
I am sooo lost again.... what happen to bs'in bout fishin?? Juuuuuuuuuuuust kidding......
