My limitation right now is- 1)Not knowing when the ethanol content will drop 2)Not knowing how the lower content will affect my tune 3)Learning how to make minor adjustments (if needed) to compensate I’ve got 50 gallons of high content in storage, but I’m storing it over the winter to 1)Prove it can be stored 2)Have enough hi content once the season starts to get me to the point that the content goes up at the pump (start of May) ---
