ALCOHOL IN GASOLINE (CONT.)
•
Starting and operating difficulties.
•
Vapor lock or fuel starvation.
The tendency of gasoline containing alcohol to absorb moisture from
the air, results in a phase of water and alcohol which separates from
the gasoline in the fuel tank.
The adverse effects of alcohol are more severe with methanol and
are worse with increasing content of alcohol.
