Despite your assurances otherwise, there are millions of small engines (outboards, lawnmowers, weed eaters and emergency generators) that simply do not function long with even the minimal blend of ethanol … no matter the suggested procedures for preventing ethanol issues being followed. Point of fact, that such “preventive” measures are even needed is proof positive that ethanol is a defective product that is being forced on the public. Were there any real concern for small engine owners, there would already be, in place, a waiver from this RFS mandated boodoggle.
