  1. See this post regarding E15 and the ?'s regarding it's use in our bikes. I do know that the snowmobile community including the manufacturer's are very concerned on how it will affect both 2 & 4 stroke sled engines. They along with other classes of equipment and vehicles were actively trying to get EPA to do some actual testing to determine the effects that fuel would have on engine emissions and longevity before it was approved. Apparently that's not happening. Here in Western NY it seems to be impossible to find ethanol free fuel at a regular pump now. Up until about a few weeks ago United Refining of PA, Kwik Fill brand fuel had no ethanol in it and I was going out of my way to use that exclusively in all my vehicles. Now all thier pumps I have seen have the "contains 10% ethanol" sticker on them. I was told some time ago that all grades of pump gasoline had to have 10% ethanol by 1 Jan 2011 so I think we are out of luck. (I think this is a Federal regulation). FYI VP Racing Fuels has introduced a premium fuel at 94 octane that is ethanol free. They call it SEF-94 for Small Engine Fuel, it is expensive as are almost all of the racing fuels. I am hearing numbers in the $8+ range per gallon range. It is supposedly packaged and sold in small quanities like 1, 5 and 55 gallon containers Here is a link to the VP website with some information on it. http://www.vpracingfuels.com/sef-94.html Roger

  3. BongoBob, See your post and would like to tag along on Monday. What's the plan, where would be a good place to meet? I am about 15 to 20 minutes from Arcade (Marilla). Will likely be away from the computer the rest of the day. Yamiman, Roger
