Ethanol contains oxygen and so burns leaner and hotter. The fuel efficiency is lost by making the mixture right again. Racers who use ethanol or methanol run huge jets making more power and using lots of fuel in the process. Modern car engines can suck wind for what I care. When it melts my fiberglass motorcycle tank I curse politicians and enviro-fools. When it swells my chainsaw gas cap tight I curse again. Mandate yourselves for once and leave my gear alone. Effing switchgrass...
1. ethanol if stored by itself without letting any oxygen get to it should never go bad. 2. ethanol burns cooler than gas ethanol is around 80000 BTU & gas is around 100000 BTU. 3.it shouldn't hurt modern car engines. 4.with ethanol you can run higher compression,more boost and more aggressive timing. making it more efficient with the right setup. 5.it is cheaper than any racing fuel on the market. with racing applications I would bet on it against anyone running premium pump gas.
I wonder if a wvo centrifuge would separate this for me.

This is a great video showing how to remove the ethanol crap from our gas we purchase. Now acetone with gas will work again.
