<<I have two problems with ethanol. First, the mandates and subsidies.>> My area switched to the E 10 back in 19 and 74 for cleaner air. Everybody bitched but a year later cars weren't having gas line freeze and clogged carbs. <<A high compression engine (12 or 13 to 1 or higher) designed to run exclusively on E85 would be very efficient, but would be unable to run on regular gasoline without detonating to pieces. >> You have that right, like gasoline and diesel, ethanol will require a different engine. The Indy 500 will be run this year on ethanol. Big problem is when it burns there's no visible flames.
