Ooooooo........Oooooooooo the sky is falling!!!!! Thanks for the "warning" but you are a bit late.....
That report has more hype than fact.
First thing to know is that E15 was NOT approved by the EPA for use in cars older than 2012. This is because manufacturers could not or would not certify it to meet emission standards in pre-2012 engines. Next thing is that there was discussion about changing the fuel nozzle to prevent mis-fueling much in the same fashion as when unleaded was introduced and restrictors were used to prevent putting leaded fuel into vehicles requiring UNleaded fuel. Next, and another incorrect "fact" is that E10 is mandatory. It is NOT. At least not by federal law. The real fact here is that E10 is a byproduct of the Renewable Fuels Act of 2007. This requires defined percentages of fuels to be from renewable sources. This includes E85, biodiesel, and any other renewable sources of fuel. The irony is that E10 does not even count towards renewable fuel usage. This is a result of overproduction of ethanol for E85. And, since E85 did not become as widely used as the EPA had hoped, refiners were stuck with large quantities of ethanol that had to go some place. I personally do not like the ethanol in the gas. It is proven fact that it has damaged fuel systems on older cars. Also note that there is plenty of non-ethanol gas sold for marine use because the ethanol damages marine engines. Ethanol is also prohibited in aircraft fuels.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
