Unfortunately not; it is apparently scheduled to increase.  

> The tariff, like the tax credit, expired Saturday. But the requirement to
use increasing amounts of ethanol in gasoline continues.

My local gas-only station caved to price pressures last year and switched to
10% ethanol, lowered prices, and increased net revenues (according to the
owner).

I believe I read that Congress did not renew the Federal subsidy for
Ethanol.  Hopefully that is true and ethanol in our gasoline will die on the
stalk, if not subsidized by you and me.

I just bought a new gravely zero turn mower (to cut the grass surrounding my
shop) and it likes non-ethanol fuel.  The closest place I can find it is
about
60 miles away... Are there any additives or alternative methods to treat
ethanol fuel so it doesn't do it's damage to a Kawasaki 24 hp engine ???

Ethanol is the fuel of the devil !

thanks
John


I used to be indecisive....
but now I'm not so sure
