Default Re: How to Blend Your Own Fuel, and Why You Should

Excellent reports, Fadi and GPSMan1 !
I am surprised at both of your actual results when adding a higher percentage of Ethanol.

I'd like to see results like this on other Flex-Fuel vehicles, and see if the small MPG losses carry through in general. Maybe there IS something to this! I just wish we had a better alternative than the corn source. Corn for food, corn for feed, corn for fuel. Is there enough (and enough land) to go around?
