    I run ethanol free at home, don't know where sells here on oahu though

    ethanol was a stupid thing to add to gas
    As a chemist I still cant fucking comprehend that shit

    "what'd be the shittiest thing to add to gas?

    Something that has 1/3 the energy storage as octane//heptane?
    something that's hygroscopic?
    something that's a highly polar solvent and will solublize random shit in your tank and gas lines, buttfucking your engine when it burns?

    Ethanol meets all these requirements to be the shittiest thing to add to gas

    LETS
    FUCKING
    ADD
    IT
    TO
    GAS!!!"

    I like the look of the bumper. Makes the front look less of a manta ray's mouth.

    from my own personal results its worth it. I got 26mpg on my beater truck when it usually gets 20-24 when I do the same driving. Its 89 octane here and the same price as 92 in some places, but like one place in hilo its 30cents more than regular gas of the same grade. I know ive done my tacoma with it and had better gas mileage, cant say how it affects it tho.

    my dads shindaiwa is a dinosaur, didnt change the gas lines since he got it and always liked using ethanol free. After I started using it(2 years ago), the gas lines gummed out and carb got clogged. Changed it, kept using ethanol blend and same thing. Ive been buying ethanol free again so hopefully it doesnt happen. I have my own and had to change the primer bulb cause it got soft and fell apart. Didnt have a problem with the lines or carb *knock on wood* but its only a few, maybe 4 years old. We empty the tanks after every use too.

    oh and I rarely do full fill ups of it, I usually just use costco gas(its $2.50 here) and when I fill up my gas container with ethanol free at the local tesoro or fuel dock, ill fill up my tank from wherever its at with ethanol free. but im also lazy and sometimes ill just get $20, put 2 gallons in the container and fill the rest in my truck.
