[QUOTE="AlanT, post: 500199, member: 30185"] I don't disagree with your recommendation due to the hygrosopic nature of ethanol absorbing water. I avoid ethonol gas for this reason. My 1985 70hp Evinrude manual states it can use "gasohol" as defined as up to 10% ethyl alcohol. It does not recommend gas containing methanol, but I don't think that is sold anymore. I'm certainly no expert in this but it seems ethanol could be used with a treatment to minimize water absorption if that is all that is available, and better to use more quickly than let it sit. el-cheapo, is the 120A for diesel only? I see references to diesel but none for gasoline. [/QUOTE]
