    Default 15% Ethanol - Must Read!!!


    EPA is considering increasing the ethanol content in gasoline to 15 percent, which can damage your boat and engine. Use this website and tell EPA not to increase the ethanol blend level!

    This is easy and takes very little time. If this gets passed we'll all be fishing out of our boats using paddles.

    I will never run ethanol fuel in my boat... I found out the hard way... If you have ever seen gasoline seperate then you would understand... My boat mechanic in Havana showed me the difference.

    In my small town I can only get non ethanol gas at one station and that is Caseys... I have to check on our Shell station to find out if they carry an alcohol free gasoline...

    I guess I heard wrong or have been told wrong. I thought that the ethanol was a government mandated deal where there had to be at least 10% in all gasoline.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, rather to skid in sideways, body used up and totally worn out screaming 'WOO~HOO what a ride!'

    I think Missouri made it a law (political move for votes) that all gas has to have ethanol in it. EXCEPT in St. Louis where they got a waiver because ethanol puts out more pollution. It also hurts your gas mileage.

    Ethanol is a really bad idea. Unless you are a corn farmer. They love it.
    I'll smoke just about anything (in my smoker)
    The fishing is always great. The catching varies.
