If you are currently using straight gasoline, you can easily add 10% Ethanol without any changes whatever. There are a few less BTUs per gallon, but with the extra oxygen burning the gasoline more efficiently, you won't notice any change in power, and possibly a small boost in mileage. Emissions should be cleaner. Motie ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Buy Stock for $4 and no minimums.
