Don't you have to be really careful that your fuel system is set up for
higher fractions of ethanol because that stuff will eat seals and
gaskets and whatnot? I see these new vehicles with "flexfuel" badges on
them which I guess means they can use whatever. I'd be real careful
about that stuff.

Anybody know anything about E30. There is a gas station I drive by frequently
that has E10, E20, and E30. The E30 was 93 Octane but was even cheaper than
87 E10. Ethanol has higher octane and plain gas, so that explains the higher
Octane. I know some gas stations advertise that they sell only 100%. But, is
E20 and E30 harmful because of the higher ethanol?

burns off the spark plug electrodes, too -- no knock sensor. I always
use premium in it, just the cost of having a Benz.

petty,
never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.
Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the
enemy.”
