Quotes

...now there is not a piece of lawn equipment or recreational equipment that will run with E15," said Mark Huber of Amarillo Outdoor Power Equipment. "Manufacturers are at a loss right now as to how to compensate and make their vehicles or their lawn equipment work with E15."
...engine life," says Marv Klowak, global vice president of research and development for Briggs & Stratton, the largest manufacturer of small engines. "The higher the ethanol content, the more acute the effects."
...When these non-existent fuels cannot be blended refiners are financially penalized, which ultimately gets passed on to consumers at the pump. "The RFS Reform Act will eliminate corn-based ethanol requirements, cap the amount of ethanol that can be blended into conventional gasoline at 10 percent, and require the EPA to set cellulosic biofuels levels at production levels. Renewable fuels play an important role in our energy policy but should compete fairly in the marketplace. This legislation will bring the fundamental reform this unworkable federal policy needs now."
