what does anybody know about ethanol ?

Wow lots of good info! I thought my 97 Yamha 200 Pro V had ethanol problems so I took it to Robertsons marine to have them put in one of those BIG fuel filters they are the size of a small oil filter and screw on like one. They told me ethanol eats the fuel line from the inside out and sends the black from the line in throught the carb. They have a stabil made to treat ethanol. Any way they decarbonized the engine and said it was really dirty. It runs like a champ again. I think I am going to run stabil in mine in the fall so its there when I put er up for the winter. I always run Yamaha ring free and Robertson said that should take care of the ethanol crap. They said the fuel filter would work also but there is not much room on my boat for one. I might run Stabil for ethanol all the time.
