  JR, Since you are at the "source" that should mean your gas is cheaper, right? Mark

    I did have the fuel line on a snow blower turn to mush a couple of years back.  Yep, it was an old one.  Don't remember now if it was rubber or plastic.  Replaced with modern rubber fuel line.

    Illinois has had ethanol in the gas for at least a dozen years.  We grow the corn here.

      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
