Ethanol gasoline helps increase octane but at the expense of lost potential power. This change in power is considered a new way to get extra performance out of your vehicle. If you are going to run the track, consider using ethanol free gasoline to get better times. If you are tuned for standard ethanol gasoline, adjustments may need to be made to your ECU to compensate for the different burn.

Normal drivers in regular cars are also complaining about ethanol's affect on gas mileage. Some users report up to 30 miles less per tank of gas, which results in buying more gasoline. Each time gasoline is cut, whether it be by detergents like "nitrogen enriched gasoline" or by other additives like ethanol, total power output is reduced and therefore more fuel is required to travel the same distance. The price of oil sky rocketed in the past 10 years, no wonder why all these magic snake oils are now surfacing. It's a way for big oil to sell you less pumped for more money. Don't buy into it.

Who else is affected by ethanol gasoline? Aircraft and boats designed to run on standard gasoline can be harmed by using the ethanol mixture. Ethanol damages hoses, gaskets, and is corrosive to aluminum and due to a lower boiling point can create vapor lock. FAA is concerned about the public's ability to correctly label mixed gasoline because use of ethanol in aircraft specifically designed for gasoline can be fatal. Small engines are also harmed by the use of ethanol mixed gasoline. People are demanding ethanol free gasoline.
