Gas to be diluted with more "corn squeezings"....I did not vote for this!

To heck with the ethanol lobby....Nothing is "temporary" once they get their hooks in ya.

MSN

President Donald Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced last month that it will allow U.S. refiners and retailers to supply two gasoline blends with more ethanol than usually allowed in the summer season – E15 and E10.

While E10, a gasoline blend mixed with 10 percent ethanol, is widely available across the country, the waiver for E15, a blend of gasoline mixed with 15 percent ethanol, will only impact a limited number of people.

The EPA’s decision to temporarily allow wider summer sales of E15 gasoline is being framed as a nationwide effort to ease fuel costs—but its real-world impact is likely to be more limited and uneven.

I live in the middle of about a million acres of corn fields. I guess the farmers are okay with it, even if I'm not.

What a waste of potential corn liquor.

I am not seeing the reason to be pissed off about this. Where is the downside? I suspect this effort will not matter much, not sure what it'll do to the price of corn though.

Engine damage?

Three Trump mistakes IMVHO:

Supporting Iowa Ethenol lobby.​

​

Saying the MacStain "I like those not captured" (a slipup).​

​

Another recent comment? I forgot?​

​

Maybe imitating that wackjob disabled reporter?​

**Not bad over 6 yrs under constant attack.

Engine damage?

Not at E10, and newer vehicles can work on E15.


Both E10 and E15 have to be labelled as such.

Engine damage?

I always figured that. I use the ethanol-free that I can afford to use, in my small engines.

If you're into corn liquor, try some of this at your next hoe down.

Ethanol 200 Proof (100%) Undenatured Alcohol, USP/FCC Food Grade, Kosher, Halal, 55 Gallon Drum

Pure Anhydrous Non-Denatured Ethyl Alcohol, Food Grade

www.laballey.com

Less than $40/gallon if you buy a 55 gallon drum.

However, I wouldn't drink 200 proof liquor straight. Better to mix it.

Is that called Super?

Out west I think all the pumps say may contain 15% ethanol?

I've had two motors nearly 209K never an issue so I dont care I suppose. Chg oil every 5K.

There's quite a variety in the pumps where I fill up.

I'm thinking of getting my hubby's 2012 Camry overhauled at just under 70K. Maybe when I do that, I'll quit with the ethanol in my car.

Especially to small engines. Don`t put that crap in your mower.

 

[Natural Citizen]

The thousands of dollars in engine/fuel system repair/replacement is simply not worth lowering your standard of living by saving the few extra cents at the pump with this stuff.

Anyway. Like clockwork, the very first thing that always takes a hit whenever the economic hitmen of the world want to start a war is the American standard of living.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Heh heh. Still chuckling at ''corn squeezings.''

Ah well. Seems like this web site is runing on corn squeezings today, so not hanging around. Cripes, it took almost three minutes for the bar at the top of the screen to stop before my post would take.

Nonsense. Been running them on exclusively E10 for decades without problems. The sky is NOT falling.
