[DML] Re: Ethanol in Gasoline

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We've been using that here in northern Illinois for over 20 years. 
There's not much choice, it's now a legal requirement here. Other than 
the rubber parts in the fuel tank not lasting as long, and the fuel 
sometimes having a bit more water in it than I'd like, it's fine. Stick 
with the major brands. 

The best thing you can do is remember to empty the tank when you park 
the car for the winter. And drive the car enough to go thru a couple of 
tanks of gas per year. The shelf life on this stuff seems much shorter.
