Comment Lost yard equipment to E10. Now I'm more careful. (Score 1) 375
I didn't really care about the difference between 100% gas and E10. I thought it was a bunch of hoopla from competing political interests. Then I lost a trimmer and a tiller to ethanol's corrosive powers. Within a couple of weeks of being fueled with E10, both had developed holes in the gas tanks and were dead. Happily my mower didn't suffer the same fate.
The moral? Don't let E10 sit in your trimmer or other yard equipment. In fact, use 100% gas in them when possible.
