    Default More ethanol allowed to be added to gas.


    Thought you might like to know I saw an article in USA Today which says the government is going to allow more ethanol to be added to gas. Could be a problem for boaters. Allowing up to 10% in gas seems to be causing enough of a problem already.

    So far that is for new cars only. 2007 and newer. EPA Allows 15% Ethanol in Gasoline for Newer Cars - Businessweek

    Here in Louisville they've been selling E85% for a while now. Most places just converted 1 or 2 pumps for it. It's used in the newer FLEX FUEL cars and is a little cheaper. Don't know any place left here that sells straight gas anymore everything has 10% ethanol in it, has for years.
