Lance,
I am not so sure that the ethanol is causing all the problem. The crap that is in our unleaded fuel rots screw driver handles !!!

There is a lot of variation in the blends sold in various regions.

FWIW I have been running my road car ( twin turbo 3000 V6) on 95 RON 10% ethanol for over 12 mths and no problems. Fuel consumption has not changed.
