Winter Gas - Types of Alcohol
I checked the old Winter Gas vs. Summer Gas postings to see what they say about the alcohol additives.
In Conn. they eliminated the use of MBTE in the winter, but now we have up to 10% of alcohol.
For the old engines, say pre-70's, which of the alcohols are known to ruin the rubber in the carb and fuel system, ethanol or methanol? Need gas now.
Point me to a previous thread if available.
