Ethanol / Carburetors: they have LOTS of seals gaskets.  Mostly designed 20 years before ethanol used 'on the street'!!!
Very Wise to avoid!!

Joel Hannig ran pure alcohol.  Used a FIFTY GALLON fuel cell because it used sooo much!!

I ran 1,350 degrees on pyrometer in M&M car.  & got 3.5 mpg & could make one run on 20 gallon tank.

Joel probably got 1.5 - 2 mpg.

Jetting for fuel type, just as big as altitude.....or even more soo!!!

I use ethanol free in anything with a carburetor. An Ethanol engine needs nearly twice the fuel flow as a gasoline engine, so as a rule of thumb, 10% ethanol will lean out the fuel burn about 5%, or you should put bigger fuel jets in to compensate.

You’ll see a third pump handle and hose at most gas stations in WA now.  It’s blue and supposedly pumps ethanol free fuel at a premium price.  Is it worth it?  We’ve tried it and not seen any improvements in mileage or power.  I’ll stick to the highest octane I can get.

Chris,

Methanol FREE?

Is that possible in Washington?

Am I mistaken that all gas sold had Methanol?

Asa, keep the car as long as you want.  Also I only use methanol free fuel, but it’s only 89 octane.
