[Healeys] E15% Ethanol Gasoline

[Leonard Hartnett]

Something that owners of aging special interest cars, like our Healeys, may want to take notice of if they haven't already.  This is not a new subject as there was discussion of this here in the West a few years back.  

>From the Sacramento Bee newspaper, 3/2/2023:  "Biden sets in motion fuel policy shift to bolster ethanol."  A push is underway by some governors from corn-producing Midwestern states to increase ethanol content to 15 percent.  Will this create the uproar that the increase to 10 % caused years ago?  As questioned back then, will this destroy our engines?  It turned out that that did not happen.  Will the added 5 % be a problem? 

Just something to think about as it could affect us sooner or later.
