Aside from the politics and social consequences of gasoline mixed with ethanol (about which "persons of good will may disagree") i have some serious concerns about using ethanol in some of our engines.
In the midwest we have had "10% ethanol" at the pump for more than 20 years; usually the pumps are marked for ethanol, but sometimes they are not. In the present situation ethanol will only become more prevalent. i have found that my wife's '52 Chevrolet 216 and the 235 that i ran in my two-door *would not* run on 10% ethanol. They act like they are strangling or vapor locking, no matter what the weather. Has anyone else had this kind of experience with ethanol? Does anyone have a cure for it?
God's Peace to you.
