    I can't enlighten you to the theoretical issues of ethanol but I can tell you that I've been running it in mine with no problems. I'm not even sure I can get ethanol free fuel in my area. I know that on my recent trip to TN, gas stations who sold ethanol free fuel made a point of advertising it & that doesn't seem to be the case here in VA.

    From what I understand, the concern about using ethanol in any vehicle is that the ethanol can react with some of the gaskets and fuel lines in older vehicles. That said every time I am in Iowa I fill up a time or two with the 89 octane and don't have any problems.
