Remember when all the gas pumps had a filter to catch the last bit of trash from the station's tank before it went in your car??? Not many of them around anymore, either!
Yeah, I remember the filters, and agree they've been gone a long while. I also remember when the ethanol adder was a winter fuel event, and everyone wondered why their mileage dropped when it got cold. Easy answer, less BTU/LB in ethanol compared to gasoline, thus less efficiency. I just wish that we could let ethanol carry it's own weight without any government edicts about adding it to gasoline, and especially without any subsidies on the price of ethanol. Let it float on the free market and it would become a race fuel.

Sorry for the thread hijack, Mohead1 . I'll defer any more comments other than on-topic, even though I learned some things today, and that's a good thing!!
