Glad I own a diesel generator. The switch to E10 (and soon E15) has no effect on me. When they came out with ULSD we thought we might have problems, but I've got over 15 diesel engines in various vehicles and equipment and none of them have had any issues related to ULSD.

I drained and then filled my boat before winter storage with gas I bought at a marina. They assured me that it was ethanol-free, and they would be able to get ethanol-free gas until Jan 1, when a new law goes into effect, apparently, although they weren't too sure about the details.

I am going to go back to a marina in the next couple of days to fill my big gas cans for my generator and for storing my motorcycles. In a pinch, the Sta-Bil folks seem pretty confident their new product is ethanol compatible.
