[Rhodes22-list] E85 fuel

[Rik Sandberg]

Darn, that's funny. I've run both methanol and ethanol in racing engines 
for years and never had those kinds of problems.

Been running ethanol blended gasoline for about 20 years now, give or 
take  in all our cars and never had any trouble with them either.

I don't think the sky is falling here.
