Hi All,

I watch my mileage.Â* I have been running pure gasoline now
for a bunch on months.

My mileage jump up from 23.5 on 15% alcohol to 25.5 miles
per gallon on pure gasoline

Hmmmmmmmmm .....

Â* That's great , but what you really need to calculate is the miles per
DOLLAR . If there is like here , that pure gas is higher priced than the
gasohol .


It is 40 cents more per gallon. I have an equation for
miles per dollar, but the gas prices keep jumping
all around, so it is pretty hard to make a good
comparison.

Also it is pretty hard to calculate the cost of the
reduced wear and tear on my engine.

Price/Gal Price/Mile
$2.68 $0.1181
$2.42 $0.1027


$2.56 $0.1015 Pure
$2.64 $0.1055 Pure
