I see there's another round of ethanol use that's been made. As usual it gets a little ugly.
Thing is I believe both sides and have stated there's a difference in ethanol in different areas. Different in how it's handled getting to the end user and different in what it was made from.
I don't hear or see for myself as many problems with ethanol in my area as did say 5 years ago. To cure the problems I had I use ethanol free gas. I only had problems with small engines. I run e10 in cars and trucks.
I read a lot and one bit of info I found that could (not saying it is) be different here in the east than mid-west is where does my ethanol come from.
First I remember a proposed ethanol plant was going to be built in the Hampton Roads area. It was in all out news papers in Va. Farmers in that area were getting excited because they'd have another place to sell corn. Well as the weeks went by everyone found out this plant would only use imported inputs to make ethanol. Well that put an end to the proposed plant being built. And I agreed with the decision. Can't use our product then you can't build the plant.
Another bit of information I found was we still import ethanol. I think most of this is made from sugar. I know what we get from Brazil is. This could (again not saying it is) be where our problems with ethanol came from in this area and others along the east coast. It seems we export ethanol and import it too. I guess shipping it around it gains value. LOL As I think back with the problems I had with ethanol matched the time frame in the chart I'll make a link for.
So to the folks that have no problems with ethanol I invite you to my area to get 5 gal. of gas at the little country store near me. Keep it for about 3 weeks and then use it in your chainsaws and lawn mowers. I believe that you have no problems. But I say that we do.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package.
