#23 of 25 Re: Methanol and Ethanol [mybooo] by maxxhawkeye Mar 28, 2007 (6:10 pm)
Replying to: mybooo (Mar 28, 2007 1:08 pm) I live in Ankeny. Actually my wife and I just traded our two vehicles for two new used ones last Thursday night. She used to drive a '00 Ford Windstar SEL w/ 118,000 miles, loaded w/ leather interior. I was, and always have for as long as I have known my wife, driven the "beater" car. I have driven many different ones, but this one was a '95 Ford Contour w/ 90,000 miles. I got the Maxx, which I LOVE!! '05, dark metallic blue and loaded. The only option I don't think it has is the 6 disc changer. It only has one disc capability. She got a 2003 Toyota Prius, loaded. Toyota of Des Moines made us a pretty sweet deal on a two car trade, especially since one was a domestic and they don't have much market for them since most people who go there are looking for a Toyota.   So the 10% ethanol isn't "bad" for my engine, but it doesn't have the performance of a non-ethanol gas?   Talk again later!! Go Hawks! Replies to this message: mybooo (Mar 29, 2007 8:21 am)

with the recent lukewarm-start programming fix. Engine seems to start more reliabily, but it's still early into the repair.
