Will have a Showroom, a Gas station and Repair Shop
for Golf Cars Only. They will sell Gasoline without the Corn in it.

I asked "what is the name of the place"
the feller said "George's Place".

When I asked " what is George's last name "
the feller replied " DAMNIFIKNOW "

There you have it.
George Damnifiknow is going to have a nice new facility.

Great news!No corn!When will it open?
Now I will be able to top off the gas in my cart when I go to LSL.

That's a dreadful waste of a nice building

If the pricing at the new Marathon station is any indication, I'll stick with the corn , thank you.

I don't understand why cart accessible service bays and a convenient place to buy gas would be considered a "dreadful waste".

When we bought our new golf cart from Villages Golf Cart in April the salesman
told us that they were going to build a garage for working on golf carts. owners could drive there and have the cart serviced instead of having to pay for them to pick up and return the cart, FINALLY!

New cart service center

Especially when that was the original intent of the building!

Why is the corn (ethanol) not good for my golf cart engine?

MAINTAINING YOUR GAS GOLF CART
Over the past few years we have seen a huge increase in the instances of fuel related problems in the golf carts we service.

These problems have been attributed to E-10 (10% ethanol added to our gas). Golf cart engines with carburetors, as well as, most small engines were not designed to use E-10 (10% ethanol in added to our gas). E-10 fuel efficiency can be reduced by 2 to 40%

Some of the effects we have noticed: stalling, hesitation, smoke released from exhaust, clogged fuel filters, clogged carburetors, damage to fuel pumps, disintegration and dissolving of engine rubber and plastic parts (hoses), and drying-out of parts.

· Ethanol in the gas attracts water from the atmosphere. Rapid temperature changes causes the water suspended in the gas to fall out (phase separation), causing stalling, and your cart to run roughly. This process also reduces the octane in the gas by as much as 4 points (if octane level is 89, it can be reduced down to 85)

· Ethanol reduces efficient combustion, which decreased performance, leads to stalling, and your cart to running roughly.

· As the ethanol in the gas tank ages a gum forms leading to clogged carburetors and fuel filters. Clogged fuel filters and carburetors rob your cart of power.

It is bad for most small engines.
