Fuel that doesn't contain Ethanol all I use as well but why do I have to use it? I think some say it has something to do with the material used for fuel line and gasket material in small engines, that larger auto engines use materials that are impervious to Ethanol? Why don't the small engines just use that then? Or... is it that fuel that contains Ethanol absorbs water? Again, then why don't they just construct small engines in a way that tolerates that? It looks like these additives are here to stay so I don't know why this is still a problem for new small engines.
Good questions!
