What, if any, effects will this have on my Camaro? I've been told to expect a slight decrease in economy, but will the fuel system have any issues with it? Many years ago, there was a fuel called "Pepco", which was, (I think), 100% ethanol. Being cleaner than petroleum fuel, there were tons of issues with killing fuel filters as it cleaned up the fuel system, as well as causing butyl rubber fuel lines to collapse.
