This is a response to the above reviewer who found the book useless. A lot of people still have old tractors, pickups or cars older than 20 years. Also, any late model fuel injected car can run 50% alcohol with no problem. If you use Swifty brand gas, you are already using 10% ethanol.

This book is totally useless in the 21st cenbtury unless maybe you own a 1955 Edsel with a carburetor.
