e15, if thats 15% ethanol then yeah, a tank will have ~5% less energy in it, and the old engines aren't designed for that so double or triple that impact. Fucks with idle too. When 10% ethanol rolled out, it dropped my city mpg from 16 to 14. Fuel lines would've fallen out with E10 anyway though, so the damage won't be worse jumping another 5%. That cost has already been paid. The enviro-mental-ists never talk about the diesel it takes to grow corn, transport the corn to the plant, and the coal to power the distillery. Its so fucking stupid.

sorry but i’m afraid that’s wrong and it’s anti semitic to imply the jews somehow caused this
>>
>>533752752
The main issue is moisture. Ethanol molecules love to bond to moisture, which means rust on the internals of the engine, degradation of rubber, etc.
Also OP faggot, they didn't say it was "fine".
They don't say the claims of damage are false.
They say they "exaggerated".
Exaggerated according to whom?
By what?
>>
>>533752752
It takes more rock oil to make ethanol than it replaces
>>
>>533752752
yes, and you should also only run biodiesel in your modern HPCR engine. never mind the $10k or more to replace a fuel system and all emissions components prematurely. think of the good you will be doing for Israel.

>Burns faster
True
>"won't last"
True
Rebunked, bitch.
>>
reminder that asbestos brakes never needed replacement and you didn't need a computer to reset a sensor that doesn't actually do anything. Its all been fucked. You will rent everything and pine for antiques.

I love how random internet faggots who didn't even go to university are acting like they know what the fuck they're talking about when it comes to fuel and engine combustion.

You read some shit on Twitter and now you think it's the vax for cars..fucking morons. So many disputes, it is perfectly safe for standard regular unleaded cars & lawn equipment. I use it myself on my 2005 car. I am as old school as they come, I wouldn't put something in my gas tank if I didn't believe in it..another fear mongering psyop for the retard MAGA right

Ethanol is a job program for farmers. >>533753501

put it in a boat and run 70 miles offshore if you trust it so much. you won't because you know what you are saying is a lie.
>lawn equipment
oh, now I get it. you are just josh'n us
>>
>>533752752
I trust the experts
t. goy
>>
>>533752752
That’s because modern engines are so cucked
>>
>>533754386
nah. We've had fewer farmers than ever before. It's not a jobs program. It's just corruption for ADM
>>
>>533753294
the corn was already there. the govt needed to help the farmers keep the value of corn up so it was mandated as an additive. why else would you think it's in there?
>>
>>533754285
yeah your 2005 shitbox won't have the rubber types that ethanol rots. Also everyone has already bricked the cars that would've been fucked when E10 rolled out. Let e15 sit in a '91 civic for a year or two and see what happens. Or throw it in your 70s era outboard and have fun repowering your boat

I'm a mechanical engineer. You are a random internet faggot. You are dumb and wrong.

>it is perfectly safe
Lol

ethanol makes an emulsion with water and the fuel. theres probably 15% water content in your gas tank at this moment.
