New gas coming...

It fucking retarded, just add this to the corn subsidies that are already out there. We reduce oil consumption only to increase fresh water usage, and fertilizer/pesticides being dumped into our rivers. There are already giant dead zones that develop in the Gulf from all the fertilizer washed out through the Mississippi.

[QUOTE=71chevellejohn;616391]http://www.gm.com/content/gmcom/home...verado.gm.html[/ I wonder what kind of power u can make with 130 octane fuel and a turbo?

We'll if they are reducing foreign oil by 5% (10% current, as opposed to 15% expected), then we'll be using even more foreign oil if it decreases mileage by 10%. What kind of fucking imbecile came up with this idea?

Reminds me of the daylight savings quote-

Will the E10 still be available? SO are all 2001 and older cars, trucks, lawnmowers, tractors suddenly going to develop serious crippling problems?

I just bought a 93 LX with an Aeromotive A1000 fuel system to include the stainless braided rubber lines. I get it home and put it in the garage and the next morning the fuel odor inside the garage is enough to water my eyes. I look for a leak and find nothing and figure out that the smell is coming from the lines themselves. I did some research and it's apparently common with "new" gas and people are switching to Teflon (PTFE) line$ and fitting$ to solve the odor problem. I figured I'll end up doing the same.

We have both E10 and "real" gas here. As I was topping the tank off with real gas last night, it dawned on me that maybe the guy I bought it from had used E10 to fill up before he sold it? Sure enough, that must have been what he did. I'm running roughly a 60/40 mix of real gas to E10 now and the difference in odor is like night and day. I was shocked that 10% ethanol would have that big of an effect. So, definitely avoid the E10-E15 if you have rubber lines...

Steel braided lines make the garage stink no matter what fuel you use.

A company selling E15 to fuel any of the cars listed will be against federal law, so I am sure E10 will still be sold.
