Gasoline

I just read non-ethanol lasts 6 months and 10% lasts 3 months.
Adding stabil to 100% gas should last quite a while.
 
I have gas from years gone by in my garage fixtures. They seem to fire up every time. Some have ethynol gas, some have straight petrol.
 
non-ethanol can last about 18 months, but I don't like to let it get that old.

...which reminds me, I need to drain the old gas out of my generator and top it off with fresh stuff.
 
Had some 10% ethanol in my gen for about a year, forgot to drain the carb, had to take the carb apart for a cleaning.
 
Bidet' is trying to force 15% fermented corn syrup on us. 😡
All the problems with 10% will be exponentially worse.
I honestly doubt I will be able to safely run it in my vehicles due to its increased corrosive qualities.
Not saying my cars will catch fire, but they likely would be damaged.
Non-Alky cost extra and is LOWER octane.
So guess who is probably about to become a criminal, adding AVgas to non-syrup in order to dilute the Iowa vote bribe and still have decent octane.
Should not have to do this.
 
I use Non Eth 91 in my 2 Harleys and Chevelle, 89-90 in my 2 mowers and Gen all with Stabil, gas in bikes are probably at least a year old and I just had 1 of them running 2 days ago, started right up
 
I think only a few gas stations will sell the 85-15 mix. Maybe for a savings of a few cents.
The dumb ones not paying attention will buy it but most people will know better.
 
Folk who cannot even check tire pressure will just pump it anyway, oblivious.
For newer cars it may not matter, the ECM makes adjustments.
For my cars it is a disaster.
But that is the real goal, force the vintage cars off the road completely, destroy their value.
Just one more incremental step toward the cattle cars of mass transit and total control.

They will likely try to ban older cars at some point . Why ?
There is no computer to track you. They want to be able to shut the computer down if you don't obey orders. (y)
 
Mr sensitive, inclusive and master of unity had this to say in response of Chevron's CEO words of discouragement over Biden's energy policy. .....

“He’s mildly sensitive,” Biden said. “I didn’t know they’d get their feelings hurt that quickly. Look, we need more refining capacity. This idea that they don’t have oil to drill and to bring up is simply not true.”
