Drunken fuel system

Will someone please ask Muhammad an-Najimi to escalate this opinion into a fatwa? Whenever the hi-octane gasoline I need is adulterated with ethanol, my fuel system corrodes, my injectors get fouled, and I get premature detonation whenever my master steps on my gas pedal.

The only place I like ethanol is in the cans of beer in my owner's ice chest in the passenger compartment... Not in my own fuel tank!

Yours truly,

1996 Chevy Vortec 350.
