It's my understanding that if the car has a yellow gas cap that it can run ethanol. My car doesn't have one but has anyone tried it?

You need to convert your car to be able to run E.
Otherwise, all the metals are going to rust, such as the gas lines..
At least, that's what I read a while back

Mine doesn't either and no, Ive never tried it!

Ethanol is a political ploy to make money for farmers who should be selling corn for people to eat NOT to burn in our cars! Now that oil is $40 a barrel theres no excuse to put ethanol in gas. Its not good for our cars.

Ethanol needs to DIE!
