Hi All,

The local Mavericks is putting in two pumps with

I lost 2.5 miles per gallon when Gasohol was forced down
our throats, thank you so much.

I wonder if this regulation being removed is Trump's doing?

Next reg to remove, those stupid regs on washing machines.

Yes. Alcohol burns and produces ONLY water and CO2. No oily
residue to clog anything up. Cars that run on alcohol need LESS
maintenance.
I change my spark plugs every 30.000 Km. And they (and the
cylinders) are absolutely clean when I do. The only damage is from the
electrical arc.
My (only) gasoline car needs a change every 10.000 Km or so.
Gratz on the observation.

You change plugs every 6000 miles ? Did you drop a zero there or
something? My 97 Honda has over 100k miles and I wouldn't be surprised
if these are the factory plugs. I have had it since 2002 and I never
changed them.
