big, I imagine he's against Ethanol for a couple of reason...poorer gas mileage and more engine problems when using Ethanol. When I travel to states that use an Ethanol mix I get from about 4 MPG less. Local mechanics have mentioned (I have no facts on this) that Ethanol is harmful to engines. They state injectors need to be cleaned much more frequently on cars that are using an Ethanol Mix. Apparently there are many studies and much disagreement on the effects of E85 on engines and engine performance but there seems to be no disagreement on the fact that gas mileage drops by 10-20 per cent.
