There are many websites that explain the joke that is Ethanol in motor fuel. Yes, it does increase the Octane rating, but mileage is reduced by the lack of energy provided by ethanol. This link provides so good details.

The pro-ethanol crowd states that blended fuel is a step towards substitute fuels. For me the step is backwards. True bio-diesel is an advance not ethanol. Corporate greed! This is proven by the fact that if this is a real logical solution then why does Washington DC place large tariffs on cheap ethanol from the Caribbean and Brazil? Maybe that fact that companies like ADM receive over a half billion dollars in ethanol subsidies each year and do not want anyone messing their output of ethanol.
Good Motoring !
