Was going to send this directly to CATBOAT but figured others might benefit from the discussion. On the Lake Maring News section there is a long article on Ethanol Fuel in Marine Engines which opens up the question/debate as to what to do over the winter. If it is not possible to drain engines, would it be better to top off the tanks or leave them partially filled. Is this Ethanol issue somthing that really needs to be addressed or is it overblown?
