[Healeys] Effects of Ethanol

[Charley Braum]

     My experience matches Jonas'. On many drives from Pittsburgh to 
Denver, Pueblo, Portland (OR), Houston, etc I logged fuel costs and 
consumption/miles. I even attempted to negate wind resistance by Xing 
out those drives in inclement weather before averaging.

     About 15% - 18% advantage to 'pure' gasoline. Three different 
full-size Jeeps (2003 110K miles, 2005 375K miles, 2014 ~50K miles).

     I've also been told, whilst discussing this subject, that if you 
perform a test on the "XX% Ethanol mix" you are buying, results will 
typically show more Ethanol than stated at the pump.

      YMMV.
