[QUOTE="CRkev, post: 1329543, member: 52751"] ethanol itself is very high octane, cant remember exactly, around 112 I THINK.......when we blend premium, it is 55% prem, 35% reg and 10% eth, Reg is 90% reg and 10% eth. I don't know about elsewhere, but here, most of the stores we deliver, the plus is just plain ol reg with 10% eth so people are gettin ripped by paying more for plus at most stores here. Reg with 10% eth is actually plus(89 octane) so we're kinda getting a bargain in that respect, if you wanna look at it like that........eth gas sux, no mileage, evaporates fast, attracts water like crazy, the eth can seperate from the gas and settle to the bottom of the tank, then you get a big dose of eth which is bad on most engines unless they're e85 engines. We cant even drop eth gas if there is over 1/2 inch water in the tank. before we started eth we could drop gas with up to 4 inches of water in a tank, because the pickup is usually about 10-14 inches up from the bottom of the tank. the water will mix with eth gas where it will hardly mix with straight gas, and if it does it seperates very quickly and sinks back to the bottom. it'll stay mixed with eth gas for a long time before settling.
