I have run both E-30 and E 10 in two of my vehicles. The running around, short trips on E-30 is 1 mile per gal. less than E-10. On a long trip burning a full tank, I get 2 mpg better with E-30. E-30 tonight was $3.17. E-10 was $3.39 and straight regular was $3.49. With a 1 mpg drop in mileage, it comes out just aboout even between E-30 and E-10. Between E-30 and straight regular I would be ahead with the E-30. Both vehicles run good on either mix. I have used E-85 in my BO Lindeman. It started harder but once it got going it ran fine without any adjustments. I ran some in my 40 JD and it started and ran just fine. I'll send the extra money back to the local community instead of to the Arabs. Poet, the largest ethanol producer is headquartered here in Sioux Falls and just gave a rather large donation to a local hospital. Nothing like that ever happens from the Arabs.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
