20. I always use the 10% blend....

in my car but now they have the 85% blend & I just was curious. The sticker on the pump say you MUST have a flex fuel car. The lady at the gas station had no idea about it. She said.."your car could just stop". She kept saying, ...this is like jet fuel." When I mentioned that during WWII they used ethanol in cars, she responded, 'but this is CORN fuel", as is there is something miraculous about corn fuel.

So I was curious about whether an old car like mine can handle it.

The heat wave is gone BTW. It's beautifully cool now.
Hope you had a good time on your visit.
