[Rhodes22-list] Butanol to the rescue

[Goodness]

Same here.  We have wide humidity changes.  I have learned to run my engine empty and take the tank home each time and dump it in the truck.
With that said there is usually a commercial fueling business in every town.  They carry an alcohol free gas that is usually a dollar or so more per gallon, but its real old gas!  Its the station without signs and soda.

>> A NY Times article reports that ethanol plants ate examining switching production to butanol. This alcohol does not take up water as ethanol does and can be made from non-food crops. My gas goes bad after 6 weeks with treatment and 2 weeks without. It does depend on the weather a bit. Spring is the worst Season. Lets hope they do this and bring down the cost of gas.
