The original poster appears to be using 60 yr old tractor, tank and fuel system components and then attributing all his problems to the fuel he used. Could one expect any deterioration in a 60 yr old piece of equipment? He doesn't mention if his tank is kept full or not. He is re-refining his fuel to low quality 80 octane then his final fuel cost is 3.46 gal or 10% higher than the original product not counting his labor to re-refine. We can buy E-10 gas here for 2.73 gal which causes us no problems and no labor output to re-refine. As newer fuel technology is put into general use there could be bugs that are worked out in the new factory manufacturer system as one poster has mentioned. I think George summed it up - some are using ethanol as a scapegoat for other problems they may have caused.
