Not sure why they add this 'Filler' in to begin with. It's like adding corn to Meatloaf.. just a do nothing filler.

The Boaters in Florida refused to use it. They burn 'real' gas in their boats. There is way too many issues with Gas tanks and Carbureted Engines when using this Ethenol gas.
In fact my boat and my jeep started giving me some issues he past few years ( i'm not a Floridian)... Cleaned the carbs twice in the boat and I will be pulling the Carb off the Jeep very soon. Many Lawn mowers are having Carb issues as well after this gas hit the Market.
