I agree, but I use a splash of Redex pretty much every tank, not a stabiliser but a cleaner. I think Ethanol fuel is another smoke and mirrors climate change thing, it is supposed to be carbon neutral because the sugar cane or corn or whatever they brew the ethanol from is supposed to grow again and absorb the carbon released by burning it, this does not cover the carbon used to process the stuff or to transport it around the globe. The fact that they destroy rainforest and use land that could be used for food to grow the stuff, and that Ethanol contains a lot less energy than petrol so you need to burn more to go same distance seems to have been lost somewhere along the way.
