EPA enacted new 15% Ethanol laws

Seen this in the A.B.A.T.E monthly newsletter.

EPA enacted new laws when using 15% ethanol blended gasoline with a four gallon minimum purchase.

WTF!

EPA Mandates Four-Gallon Minimum at E15 Gas Pumps

What a crock of horseshit!:angry:

 

[erldawg]

Our lawmakers have there head up their ass. Fucking idiots everyone of them.

Ok no talking about politics....

 

[XTREEME]

I get where they are going with the E15 crap, to try to prevent small engine users of mistakenly using the crap, but what happens when that is the only fuel available at that station?

I guess they are going to have to pass another law that forces every gas station to have at least one pump of ethanol free gas in it?

 

[woodbutcher]

i'm gonna let somebody else make the call on this one. this is a topic that effects every one of us so try to keep it under control.

(don't make me wish i hadn't, please)

I couldn't find any date on it? When is this happening??

Although at least 1 Gov't Agency is questioning the feasibility of this :up:

I particularly enjoy the following quote:

The EPA has no business telling Americans how much fuel they must purchase. This unprecedented attempt to remedy the consequences of EPA’s E15 waivers will not prevent widespread misfueling of millions of vehicles and products already owned by Americans that are not covered by the waiver decisions and introduces an unacceptable intrusion into the daily lives of drivers.

:bang::bang::angry:I hope it screws up every personal vehicle they own. Gas station owners need to fill their vehicles with 85% ethanol and claim ignorance when they drive off and it f'cks their vehicle up.

 

[woodbutcher]

Huw, stay on the subject.

 

[woodbutcher]

it reads to me like the house committee has already taken Ms. Jackson to task. we will see.

 

[Th3InfamousI]

Huw, stay on the subject.

Ya Hew, :lol:

:urowned:

Never got to use that guy before....

 

[Nukeranger]

Oops,

I apologize Tom. Thanks for the advice. I happened to be in a pissed off mood. I appreciate you pointing out my BS

Huw

 

[BigDogBro1]

A professional sounding letter voicing your concerns to your state goverment will help.

 

[woodbutcher]

Huw, it is so understandable these days but we need to think before we type. :up:

glad i could help out, th3infamous1. :roll::roll:

would probably help if we all joined ABATE, if not already.

Well 4 gal. min is just another stupid move to complicate things. Who is gona police that ?
As for bumping up from E10 to E15 wont better the environment , you will need to use more gas to get the same power ( or use ) out of the fuel. Cost goes up for the consumer. OH NOW I GET IT SPEND MORE MONEY then TAXS are up

 

[soonertodd]

FUCK ethanol and blended fuels.i only run 100% genuine gasoline.they need to ban that shit,you wouldnt believe the damage that shit does to fuel systems and i have a lot of cars come in runnung like shit because of it

 

[woodbutcher]

will re-open later for further discussion.

The gas stations are going to love this and back it.

The way they will do it is charge for the first four gallons upfront....like a two drink minimum. Once over the minimum it will start counting past that.

So people that need less than four gallons will get three gallons for the cost of four.

The gas stations are going to love it!

 

[woodbutcher]

i suppose you could always pump it on the ground.

 

[mark whitrock]

FUCK the EPA they are fucking over the whole country... Their regulations are closing company's and costing thousands of jobs. Their agenda goes deep and they want to drive the cost of all fuels up hopping to force wind and sun technology. Everyone has a boss!!!
