Re: Pulsing engine?



Geez Gary even here in the heart of the cornbelt we can get "regular"
gasoline.  Guess the Corngrowers lobby is getting results somewhere.
Our Reg. here is 87 octane, 10% Ethanol 89 octane, and we also have 92
octane plain gasoline.  A new thing I've seen recently are "blender
pumps".  You can get ethanol in three different concentrations,
something like 25%, 45% & 85%.  I ran the E-85 two years ago when we
had $4 gas.  In my 08 Town & Country the price differential needs to
get to @ 90 cents before the drop in MPG will even out.  Here in Iowa
I run 10% all the time because it's 10 cents/gal. cheaper because of
state subsidies.
