~MTBE is a known cancer causer, and is much more water soluable than
~many other gasoline components.
~
~The introduction of MTBE in the US gasoline supply has lead to a
~huge increase in the number of wells polluted, and thus shut down
~by, leaking gasoline storage tanks.
~
~This is a very hot issue in California, where MTBE was first
~introduced, and where the problem is now quite wide spread. There
~has been plenty of coverage in the newspapers of this issue.
And rots the rubber right out of your older car! All Buna-N type
rubber fittings in the fuel system will need to be replaced with
silicone type fittings to survive. Yes, I am in SoCal.
