We know the costly havoc that ethanol wreaks on the motors of our beloved toys.
Take a minute to show that you want to keep pure gas available in Louisiana.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that petition isn't gonna do anything. Companies are switching over because it is more expensive and less demand for regular gas, and the government sucks corn's dick
I'm just glad I can buy Mexican coke. That's the one good thing about our borders being opened

E10 fuel is perfectly acceptable fuel to use in all internal combustion engines. While not as efficient as 100% gasoline, it has NOT been proven to lead to any issues in car or boat engines...
E15 and higher is potentially damaging though. So as long as you run E10 (which is what most gas stations carry now), you're 100% ok.

"After the transition period from E0, E10 may actually be a superior marine fuel as it tends to keep low levels of water moving through the fuel system, keeping the system 'dry.'"

Probably has to due with your transition from E0 to E10. That's when the problems happen. E10 itself isn't the problem, it is the lack of care taken when transitioning between the 2 fuels. You need to either use E0 or E10, don't use one and then use the other.

Kinda hard when I've already been using E0 and now I may not be able to get it.
To the guy that thinks Ethanol gas doesn't mess up your motor, you have been brain washed.

Forgot to add I love ethanol because it is increased my business 50% at least.

It pisses me off that I have to add ethanol treatment to my fuel. My zero turn says on the gas cap that it can handle up to 10% ethanol fuel, but I still don't trust it. This has got to be one of the biggest examples of corporate welfare this country has ever seen.

Second all that on E10 in small engines. Crap goes bad fast and I've seen some nasty carbs and fuel lines from running E10.
