Default good news !!!!!!!

Just found out the new spirit gas station in our town is supposed to be offering a non ethanol fuel, or was told by the cashier tonight that this is true. Boy I hope so !

As for articles on controversy of Brazilian ethanol, just google it and you will find plenty of articles going both ways.

The ethanol that has gunked up in my old tractors was stored as I have always put my gas, in clean plastic gas cans and on the workbench at my Dads garage or the shelf at my place.

I usually don't have gas left in a can for any time at all. With two cub cadets 125s, 73, several originals, 1000, deutz 1920, 3 farmall cubs, 8n, jubilee, 3 economy tractors, cadet 70, mini bike, etc. , and mostly the 4 wheeler , the gas goes from can to machine.

If the amount of ethanol makes no difference to these small engines than why does the opei and many manufacturer warranties not recommend going over e-10??????????????? It is obviously not just the other additives in the fuel causing all the problems or this would not be the case PLAIN AND SIMPLE. DOE and opei does not have agenda to go after high ethanol content fuels. Again read the report of what "can" happen when using the higher than 10% ethanol fuels in small engines that aren't made for it. Yes smoking in bed, running red lights, kicking a pitbull in the butt, playing Russian roulette, shaking a wasp nest "CAN" turn out bad. Not always, but I wouldn't recommend any of the above. Just as I personally wouldn't recommend high ethanol content fuel in any engine not intended for it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
