Default Re: Shold 10% ethanol gas be run in an Evo?

I do try to avoid useing it in anything, when I can't I just use whats avaiable and go on. From what I gather, another problem with ethenol fuel is its tendancy to draw moisture. It will collect water over time. If you have the mix in your tank and you are going to store your bike for a while, it might be good to put some fuel stabilizer in it. ...I have also heard that the ethenol reacts somewhat with the resins in fiber glass tanks. not a big thing for harley gas tanks but if you have onboard tanks in a boat it can give you problems from what I understand.
Hey Big,.. good to see ya. Hope your stayin busy man and puttin down the miles every chance you get!....pndr
