Great idea, have old belt for my wagon in the boot such as it is. For
some reason, when I replaced the belt on this car 28k miles ago, I threw
that belt away.
Root cause of all this is a leaky power steering pump, which is dripping
hydraulic fluid for the ASD on the belt. I've had a pump

A Shell station recently built nearby has one pump off to the side which is
labeled ethanol free, slightly higher price. Lots of folks filling up

Make a mark on a (graduated) test tube about 2 inches from the bottom
and fill it with the gasoline to be tested. Top the test tube with
water, shake it and allow to stand. If the gasoline contains ethanol,
the level of the solution will rise, as ethanol is absorbed by water.
