I would discuss it but the whole E subject really gets me frustrated and upset.
I haven't seen any E15 stickers on the pumps yet. |

I haven't seen any E15 stickers either.
I did see a thread were someone was talking about adding 2 cycle oil to ethanol gas to help lubricate the fuel system seems that most said that was a bad idea but I do not know anything about it, just wondering what the Barn's opinion is, anyone? |

Usually run Wa-Wa or Hess on a regular basis, but if I am traveling, I try to stay with one of those, or if not a Shell, BP, or Sunoco. I try to stay with Hess cause around here Wa-Wa only has 91, I have also gone from running a can of Seafoam once every 6 months to once every 4 to try to keep things clean and lubed up.
On a side note, at some point, I need someone to show me how to put the Seafoam in through the vacuum line or how ever it is done...I have read posts on it, but don't trust my knowledge enough to do it by myself. |

This new Diesel fuel they sell now has no lubricant so most of us Diesel owners add any fuel additive with lubricity or just a small bottle of two stroke oil.
