I will run ethanol fuel if I cannot get the non-ethanol. I only put MMO in the fuel once and I did not notice what it did or what it did not do. For winter I fill up the tank with non-ethanol fuel. I took the car out of a 5 month slumber and it started right up again using non-ethanol fuel.
I am going to try it now that the car is getting a lot of use. Did you see any problems with your Model A? When it cools down in late November I will go back to non ethanol for sure and maybe sooner if I have problems.
