Gasohol and Small Engines

[lilranch2001]

I do not "worry " about IT at all, I do find your flip attitude about a real issue annoying tho

I understand engines, gas, carburetors etc and I do try to help with real world examples. I'm sorry you find it "flip" or "arbiter-like". Maybe it's because you're not actually reading or understanding my real-life examples? It's just my real world experience.

When people start draining the gas in their stored RVs, then there is a problem.

The sad part is here in the USA the taxpayers are subsidizing the ethanol producers $.46 per gallon to produce it as the cost would be prohibitive at the pump without the taxpayers funding it. :

Correct, crime of the century.

At least people do not look at me being weird when we spent quite a bit of money on a G2160 Kubota Diesel riding lawn mower......it starts every time.

For people to say the ethanol corrosion problems are caused by cheap equipment or operator problems, they just do not have a clue and need to pull their head out.

This is one of the reasons I have a Diesel engine on most equipment I own - still looking for a Diesel chainsaw...

If corn is to be turned into a liguid, I prefer it come in a jug. However, I'll keep trying to keep things running on whatever I can get. Good thing I like fixin stuff, cause everything I got needs fixin.

Well, one thing at a time. We don't even have 4-stroke chainsaws, yet. Some small garden tools are now
4-stroke, and some of those still require pre-mix gas.

A 4-stroke chainsaw is going to be heavy, and a diesel, even heavier. Don't even think about old Diesel
fuel with algae growing in it as it gets old.....
