If the summer gas is too volatile, too much of it evaporates while the car is just parked. That wastes gas and pollutes. In the winter, if the gas is not volatile enough, it's hard to get the engine started, because starting depends on at least SOME of the fuel being vaporized so the spark can ignite the mixture. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
