<VV> FYI - Ethanol

[Mark Durham]

We in Northern Idaho do have a choice, if we want to drive 30 miles, to find
the rare non-ethanol gasoline station, or at least one pump at a station
with straight gas. So, like Matt, we use the ethanol laced mix ourselves
with no ill effects. I own semi new and old. Mark Durham
