I burn E-15 when it is available. Ethanol has 2/3 the energy of gasoline. Supposedly E-15 has 2 percent less energy than E-10, but I don't notice any big change in fuel mileage. Is gasoline still a cheaper ingredient than ethanol?
Today the prices at the local Kwik-Trip are:
87 E-10 (90V-10E) $2.799
88 E-15 (85V-15E) $2.509
E-85 (65V-35E) $2.749 www.kwiktrip.com This pricing does not make sense, but maybe E-15 is subsidized. I'll choose the best bargain.
Here in MN the corn farmers and ethanol producers are pushing E-15 much more than the enviornmentalists are. Every time someone suggests cutting ethanol subsidies or restricting corn fructose syrup in soft drinks the local corn producers put a stop to it.
Myself, I'd rather see the corn fed to livestock. Livestock production would be more profitable and we would be eating $5/lb T-bone steaks instead of $5/lb 80 percent lean hamburger.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
