These fuels are pure and have no additives in there.
Now they starting that ethanol crap, to play nice and get not restricted by the EPA.
The refineries mix,
Water
Additive to stabilize the water/gas mix
Additive to keep the water from freezing
Ethanol
Additive to stabilize the ethanol/gas mix
Anti knock additives
Fuel coloring
Additive to stabilize the coloring/gas mix
........and the list goes on.
The bottom line is, it is just bad gas. If they would be leave it alone how it comes from the tower - the engines would run better and longer.
The profit would be not as much - because the additives, water and ethanol are a good source to delude cheap a perfect product.
This is experience speaking not hear say.
