I would not worry about any wash down of oil by ethanol. Ethanol is a very poor solvent when it comes to Petroleum based oils. Gasoline is a much more effective solvent for washing the oil off. I have already tested that and found that its very hard to remove Petro oil with ethanol, almost on par with trying to remove the oil with water, but very easy to do with gasoline. I suspect that the only reason E-85 washed the oil off at all was because of the 15% gasoline in it.

Is there any Kolb active group in NC, today would have been a good day to visit.

was wondering, with the advent of the alky in our gas of late, could we
ofset the cylinder 'wash-down' of oil from alcohol by adding marvel oil to
our gas. I know it says not to put additives into our gas but it might help
a little. what do all you experts think? Ted Cowan, Alabama Slingshot 912
