How To Crash Your MPG? Use Ethanol

This is now a blog for How2SaveFuel.Com. It had been a blog for Water4Gas.

So you come to the gasoline station and you have an option to get gasoline with or without ethanol. Which do you pick?
You might make the wrong decision if you did not know that you get more energy out of a gallon of regular gasoline then out of a gallon that contains ethanol.
If it’s a gallon of E-10, which is a blend of 10 percent ethanol and conventional gasoline now widely available in many city areas, there’s an energy difference of about 3.4 percent.
Now that may not seem like much when you’re topping off the tank this week. But over the course of a year of normal driving, it would take an additional 40 gallons of E-10 to go the same distance as conventional gasoline. If they were both priced the same, it would mean an extra $120.
Mileage can suffer by about 25 percent with E-85, according to AAA. Over the course of a year, that amounts to an extra 300 gallons of E-85 to go the same distance as when using conventional gasoline.
Even if ethanol-blended gasoline is cheaper, it can still end up costing you more because you’re getting less energy. That fact has not been made clear to people. In effect, you can end up paying more for less.
Moreover, the ethanol impact is expected to increase because the federal government approved an energy bill last year that encourages a sharp increase in ethanol production.
In Missouri, we’re already there. Since January, E-10 has been required for regular and midgrade gasolineoline
Experts say it’s difficult to blame E-10 for that much of a decline.
AAA now calculates a price for E-85 to adjust for its energy content. The national average pump price for the fuel on Thursday was $2.91 per gallon; regular gasolineoline was $3.56. But adjusted for its energy content, the price for E-85 jumps to $3.83, or 27 cents more than regular.
In fact, it’s now tough for ethanol, because of the energy loss, to be priced at a level so it can beat the price of conventional gasolineoline. That’s because a growing share of the nation’s corn production is being diverted to producing ethanol, which has been a contributing factor in driving corn prices over $6 a bushel.
General Motors has manufactured over three million cars and SUVs that can use traditional gasoline or E-84 but they are also expessing concern over the price competitiveness of E-85 with the energy factor considered.
I think the main point here is that ethanol is a lousy fuel source and there are better alternatives.
One of the best ways to go is with Water4gasoline.
The advantages that Water4gasoline members are happy to reap from their membership are basically these...
Improved gasoline performance as high as thirty or even fifty percent or even higher. This is a highly variable factor but most people are delighted with the improved fuel economy they get.
A happier, cleaner, cooler, more powerful car engine.
The knowledge that your car emissions are clean and you are not harming the environment.
And also there is an opportunity to create more income for themselves by spreading the good news about Water4gasoline.
And there are other benefits.
Amongst these is the awareness that while others are suffering you don't have to and you can help them stop suffering from high gasoline prices!
Join Water4gasoline and our revolution today and start getting the benefits of increased gasoline mileage, a more powerful engine and cleaner emissions.
