I unlike Rusty, do not recommend putting it in chain saws, lawn mowers, or any other thing running rubber parts in the fuel system.

But untill I went to diesel in my truck I always run 10-15% gasahol and had great luck with it, still use it in wife's van.

As for straight alchohal in older trucks and tractors, read, read, read, it will take bit of modification to make it work.
