Re: fuel treatment for ethanol free gas
Hey guy's, the real problem is humidity + ethanal= trouble.We have been sold a bill of crap. Ethanal contains less BTU's than gasoline. It take 1.5 times the units of ethanal, than gasoline to do the same work. So if for no other reason fuel mileage goes Down. Ask any one who races with alcohol fuel and they will tell you " the hardest thing to do is store the fuel with out water intrusion" this is in a steel sealed drum . Inboard mounted tanks normaly have a 5/8" fuel vent,and where are you going to find moisture when BOATING . Until the powers to be get straightened out we are stuck with the problem. This is shared with all none late model Gasoline powered machines, except Automobiles,& Light Trucks. The have well controled venting systems. George Ps. Octane is only a measure of burn rate, High octane = slow burn, Low Octane = faster burn. Extra Oil Lower Octane.
