Ethanol makes more power but is very corrosive to rubbers and plastics. Things like plastic gas tanks, fuel lines, fuel injector o-rings. These things hold up a lot better than they used to, but straight gasoline is much better for them. This is why the companies that make lawn power equipment and the small engines for them filed an injunction to stop the gov't from mandating E-15, or we would be using that crap now, too. If you can find plain ole gasoline, by all means use it. Unfortunately, here in the Peoples Republic of New York, we can't.
