Take 2 min and do this..... Please
Yah I know it isn't truck related but it is simple, might make a diff for us boaters.. Thanks guys it will take 2 min....Point being that the ethanol has been screwing up peoples fuel tanks and systems really bad since they started doing this, now they want to add more to it, which will make the problems even worse.. Heres a lil bit of info..

The U.S. boating industry needs your help in PREVENTING THE EPA FROM ALLOWING AN INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF ETHANOL in gasoline.
Act Now
On March 6th, 2009 a new pro-ethanol lobbying organization called Growth Energy aligned with 54 ethanol manafactures and formally requested that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) allow an increase of ethanol blend levels in gasoline to 15 percent (E15) As is required by law, the EPA on April 21 published a Notice for Comment in the Federal Register, beginning a 30-day public comment period that will close May 21, 2009.
Failure to stop momentum at this stage will almost certainly cause all engine companies and thier suppliers to redesign and re-engineer product lineups at a time when all of us can least afford it.
IMPORTANT FACTS
. Marine engines, fuel tanks, have not been tested with ethanol blends above E-10
. Some marine engines have experienced issues using E10, and additional problems would certainly be anticipated with higher levels of ethanol blends.
. Let the data tell the story! Tell the EPA to deny the E15 waiver until adequate testing has been conducted

Thanks Bro.. Every vote counts.. The epa DO GOOD'Rs are taking things to far.. It is unbelievable what the eth does to the fuel tanks and sytems on boats, esp the older ones.. Then you have to add a bottle of stabilizer to it, cause of the water that it makes when it evaps.. It is a PITA

Another here. I am so anti-ethanol I wouldn't even know where to begin screaming about it. I refuse to run any E10 gas in any of my motors I own. I pull up to the motorcycle pumps at the gas stations here and fill up with the non-oxygenated gas that's sold only for them. I don't care. I get better MPG's and better and more consistent performance out of my stuff by not running that ****. Good luck John!
