on gasohol (and i have said this before): MOST midwest gas stations are
selling premium unleaded gasohol with warning signs that are very small.
if you are driving a fuel injected car, DO NOT use gasohol, the excess
water that the alcohol picks up will ruin the injectors.
if you are driving a wankel engined car, DO NOT use gasohol, the alcohol
will attack the apex seal on the rotor (a cloud of blue smoke and a hardy
repair bill).
i have not seen regular unleaded or leaded gas listed as an ethanol mix
yet (and hope i never do for the sake of my rx-7), but as i said, the
signs on the pumps denoting gasohol are no where near big enough
considering the problems that could result.
