Has  anyone had problems using the ethanol based gasoline?  I’ve been using 
 regular gas without ethanol and other than the fact that it is expensive 
the  fastback seems to run well on it.  I’ve heard that it is not good to run 
 ethanol in the air cooled engines.  Would like to hear what others think  
or have experienced!
Well, we've had ethanol mixed fuels (10% ethanol) since 1985 here,  and the 
nearest 100% gas place is over 30 miles away. 
About the only real issues I've had with it, is drying out in the  fuel 
bowls after sitting for a couple of months. Other than  that, I haven't really 
noticed any problems other than a loss of about 2 mpg.
