Default Warning from AAA on use of new fuel

Someone just sent this to me. If your car predates 2012 you may want to hear this! Warning Not to Use E15 Gas in Your Car: FOX Business - YouTube

Snopes says the email circulated was a mixture of true & false. Goes back to 2012. Wonder why the tv network didn't clarify that..............Oh I see it was Fox News.

Actually, Bogie, I believe this YouTube video is dated in December of 2012.

I would think it is because your assumption that Fox News would get it wrong could be because of a belief that Fox is a Conservative news outlet.

This invites a response about the liberal slant of the three broadcast networks and the cable outlets of CNN and MSNBC.

The subject of requiring gasoline supplements leads to a discussion of the very controversial subject of "man-made global warming" which is quite political.

"Talk of the Villages does not allow any discussion or reference to politics. This would include but not be limited to reference(s) to a political party, political individual, or political topic. Moderators and Administrators retain the right to use their discretion and any politically related or implied thread or post will be removed. If a user continues to disregard this rule then the user account will be issued infractions/suspension."

Just a guess.

Not to mention that a warning is not necessary if you have ever put ethanol containing gas in a boat motor or motorcycle. The stuff craps out and plugs up carbs and will eat various manmade materials. It is also quite hygroscopic pulling moisture into your tank.

As an aside, it is now finally acknowledged that bio ethanol is more polluting than gasoline. We have been exploited again! Billions of our dollars have gone down the government engineered toilet in the form of subsidies and tax credits to ram down our throats an economically unsustainable alternative energy.

Wait a minute. Does anyone watch Fox business news? Seems like a moot point.

The earth has a history of cooling and warming cycles which were not caused by the activity of mankind.

The whole issue is an attempt by politicians to control our lives.

Don't you mean "Faux" News

As I understand it that was when the earth Cycle around the sun goes elliptic or severe oval shape. course the further away from the sun the colder the earth gets. I don't know how they are going to stop that by taxing?


Bio-diesel not bad fuel IMO, Don't see that black smoke from buses, tractors, or 18 wheeler's anymore. I don't understand why propane hasn't taken off. Burns clean and don't dirty up internals of the engine like gasoline. Supposedly we has the largest natural gas deposits in the world?
