Somebody's sticking it to us with gas formulations. When we only had ethanol in winter gas I'd lose 5% to 10% mileage. Now we have ethanol in gas year round and my gas mileage is poor year round. Maybe it's not the ethanol but something else in the gas - but what ever it is I don't like it.

My fuel consumption is up 12- 15% in everything I put gasahol 10% in. As stated above check mower shops and boat shops. The stuff is ****! It may be time to reign in the EPA. Between them and OSHA the cost of living is up considerable.
